Most people who search out Emotionally Focused Therapy (or Hypnotherapy) have already experienced mainstream counselling and found it not quite as helpful as they would have liked. They often find that it somehow by-passes the underlying issues and may involve medication instead. On the other hand, Emotionally Focused Therapy is a healing therapy designed to identify what are the underlying unresolved emotional issues and aims to address and heal those unprocessed emotional wounds. Emotionally Focused Therapy has been proven to be effective in the treatment of Anxiety and Depression, particularly where the causes involve trauma resulting from early adult or childhood relationships.
