“Often in the hustle and bustle of the “real world” we kind of just go with the flow and often lose ourselves. Sometimes it is scary to live our lives authentically. Living authentically means the person you feel you truly are on the inside. I started my career in the IT field, but realized I did not have a passion for it or enjoy it. I wanted to help others. I became a licensed marriage and family therapist, and am now living my authentic life path and want to help you find and live yours. I specialize in working with children, tweens, teens and adults who want to be their authentic selves, whether it is their gender journey (transgender/gender expansive/non-binary), coming out or being on the spectrum. I work with all religions and spiritualities and all types of families no matter what the unique makeup.”

“I work with adults who appear to be functioning on the outside while privately struggling with anxiety, overwhelm, emotional exhaustion, burnout, trauma, relationship difficulties, grief, or feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns. Many clients are used to pushing through life while feeling emotionally drained, disconnected, or constantly on edge internally. I also work with individuals navigating long-standing family dynamics, people pleasing, perfectionism, emotional shutdown, and nervous system overwhelm rooted in chronic stress or past experiences. Therapy can help you better understand the patterns underneath what you are experiencing, strengthen emotional regulation, and create more sustainable ways of coping and relating to yourself.”

“You built this life by being the reliable one. Now you wake up tired, annoyed, and wondering who you are underneath the grind. I'm a burnout and trauma therapist in Brooklyn, NYC, working online with first-generation adults, children of immigrants, and BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and neurodivergent professionals who are burned out from over-functioning. Clients usually arrive saying "Why am I so exhausted when my life looks fine?" or "I'm the one who takes care of it. Nobody asks who takes care of me." If you've said that, you probably felt it in your body first.”

“Have you been in therapy before, but felt like it only got so far? Maybe it felt surface-level, overly passive, or like you were left to connect the dots on your own. You may still find yourself stuck in anxiety, self-doubt, or damaging relationship patterns, with a sense that something deeper is driving it. Many of my clients have lived through trauma, painful relationship experiences, or family dynamics that continue to shape how they feel, relate to others, and see themselves. This work tends to resonate with people who want something more focused, more engaged, and more effective than what they’ve experienced before.”

Licensed In:

“Do you find yourself asking, why can't I stop worrying what others think? Why can't I turn my thoughts off at night? Why do relationships feel disappointing? Why can’t I make decisions? Why am I always tired? I'm here to assure you, you are not a problem; you are the solution! If you are ready to address the cycles you find yourself repeating, imbalanced relationships, toxic families/work environments, struggles with dieting and body image, loss of a sense of self, people-pleasing and perfectionism: I work with adults seeking relief from anxiety and/or stress from life transitions (relationships, grief/loss, career, self-worth/identity). You will experience a non-judgmental and very down to earth (laughing, crying, and swearing freely) approach in sessions. Many of my clients report feeling better after their first session, or in the first month!”

About Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

Use the directory above to find a therapist who offers this approach. Compare profiles for their approach, availability, fees, and insurance.

Select the states where you’ll attend sessions, then ask the therapist to confirm they can work with you in each state.

What to expect

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a therapy approach that looks at how emotions, needs, and relationship patterns shape the way people connect. It is often used in couples therapy, and some therapists also use EFT with individuals or families. In online sessions, your therapist may help you slow down difficult conversations, notice the cycle you get caught in, name the feelings underneath conflict, and practice clearer ways of reaching for support. People often explore EFT when they want help with relationship distress, recurring arguments, emotional distance, trust concerns, life transitions, or feeling stuck in protective patterns. If you want therapy that pays close attention to emotions and connection, this approach may be worth exploring.

How to choose a therapist

As you compare online EFT therapists, look for someone whose profile explains how they use this approach and what kinds of clients or relationships they commonly work with. Fit matters: pacing, communication style, comfort with emotion, and how structured the sessions feel can all affect your experience. Before booking, you might ask whether the therapist offers EFT-informed therapy, how they work with couples or individuals online, what to expect in the first few sessions, and how they handle moments when conversations become intense. You can also ask about training or experience with EFT.

Before you book

  • Ask about the provider’s experience with your concerns and goals.
  • Confirm availability, session fees, and your insurance coverage directly.
  • Check that the provider can work with you in each state where you will attend sessions.

Questions about this approach

How do I use this page to find an online therapist who offers Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)?

Start by choosing the state where you will be located during sessions. Then use filters for service type, age group, language, insurance, and therapy type. Read profiles for how each provider describes EFT, who they work with, and whether they offer individual, couples, or family therapy online. From there, compare availability, fees, and consultation options before reaching out.

What should I ask before booking?

Ask how the therapist uses Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), what the first few sessions are usually like, and whether their approach is more structured or exploratory. If you are coming with a partner or family member, ask how they manage joint sessions online. It can also help to ask about fees, insurance, cancellation policies, privacy for telehealth, and whether they offer a brief consultation.

Does my therapist have to be licensed in my state, and what happens if I travel out of state?

In most cases, your therapist must be allowed to practice where you are physically located at the time of session, not just where you live. If you travel or split time between states, tell potential therapists before booking. Some providers can work across more than one state, while others cannot. Learn more about finding a therapist licensed in multiple states.

Can Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) be done virtually through telehealth therapy?

Yes, many therapists offer Emotionally Focused Therapy through secure video sessions. Online EFT may involve talking through relationship patterns, practicing slower and more direct communication, and noticing emotions as they happen in session. For couples or families, each person needs a private, reliable place to join. Ask how the therapist structures online sessions and what they recommend if emotions run high.

Who is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) best for, and is it only for couples?

EFT is often associated with couples who want help with conflict, disconnection, trust, or feeling stuck in the same argument. It may also be used with individuals or families, depending on the therapist’s practice. This approach may fit if you want to understand the emotions underneath your reactions and build safer, clearer connection. Review profiles to see who each therapist serves.

Do Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) therapists need special certification or training?

A therapist should be licensed to provide mental health care in the state where you are located for sessions. Beyond licensure, EFT training and certification can vary. Some providers may have completed formal EFT training, while others use EFT-informed ideas in their work. Before booking, ask how they learned the approach, how often they use it, and whether their experience fits your goals.

Does insurance cover online Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and how does payment usually work?

Coverage depends on your insurance plan, the therapist’s network status, your location, and the type of service provided. Use insurance filters when available, then confirm directly with the provider before your first appointment. Ask about session fees, superbills for out-of-network reimbursement, payment timing, and any cancellation fees. For couples therapy, also ask whether your plan covers relational or family sessions.

When is online Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) not the right choice?

Online therapy may not be the best fit during an immediate crisis, when emergency support is needed, when a higher level of care is required, or when you do not have a private space or reliable internet connection. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, contact local emergency services or call or text 988 right away. You can return to online EFT once safety and privacy needs are better supported.

Need urgent support? Therapy Expanded is not a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you need urgent mental health, suicide, domestic violence, substance use, or LGBTQIA+ support, visit our crisis and mental health resources page.
