Emotion Focused Therapy
Emotion Focused Therapy (PEEFT) is a form of counselling that has been proven effective in the treatment of depression and anxiety. It works by allowing difficult or disturbing emotions to rise safely to the surface in a non-threatening way, providing an instant catalyst for insight and change.
PEEFT focuses entirely on accessing the emotional ‘charge’ at the heart of your painful experiences. The goal is to release emotions trapped in your body, causing depression, anxiety and illness. This is a powerful technique that creates a depth of emotional processing that is difficult to achieve through traditional talk therapy.
You will discover that emotions are not harmful in themselves, and they do pass. It’s how you react to them, battle or resist them, that reinforces your painful feelings and makes you relive negative experiences. PEEFT helps you to move on.

What is true is already so. Owning up to it doesn't make it worse. Not being open about it doesn't make it go away. And because it's true, it is what is there to be interacted with. Anything untrue isn't there to be lived. People can stand what is true, for they are already enduring it. ~ Eugene Gendlin Co-Founder of Emotion Focused Therapy "There can be no transforming of darkness into light, or of
apathy into movement, without emotion." ~ Carl G. Jung |
