    Emotionally Focused Therapy vs. Emotion Focus Therapy

    UNDERSTANDING THE DISTINCTIONs

    The distinctions between Emotionally Focused Therapy and Emotion Focused Therapy go beyond spelling differences. Since their start in the mid-eighties, the co-developers of the original model of Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy have gone in different directions to expand their approaches. 


    Dr. Sue Johnson is the primary developer of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an attachment-based model that integrates experiential and systemic approaches within an attachment orientation. EFT is not only known as a cutting edge, empirically validated couple intervention, but also extending its benefits to families and individuals. EFT stands out for its numerous publications and extensive empirical research with couples. 


    Dr. Les Greenberg, on the other hand, shifted Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) towards intrapsychic individual therapy from original couple therapy focus, altering its name to emotion-focused therapy or process-experiential therapy. Greenberg’s approach focuses on emotion dynamics.
