Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

I have used EFT as a foundation for all interventions, as the attachment styles we formed as a child continue into adulthood and impact how we view ourselves and others.

With DBT we focus on 4 key areas : Mindfulness Emotional Regulation Distress Tolerance Interpersonal Skills

Trauma-informed mindfulness can also involve: performing a physical activity with present moment awareness rather than sitting still in meditation observing objects, colors, or the space around you listening attentively to music as a mindful practice
