Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and helps people try different ways of relating when old patterns cause pain. Emotionally-Focused Therapy zeroes in on feelings and interactions so partners or individuals can express needs more clearly and rebuild connection.He also uses cognitive-behavioral techniques when helpful to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep problems stuck. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Brent partners with each person to identify goals, test methods, and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful and realistic for them.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
