From a young age, I was curious about psychology and how people's internal worlds directed their external ones. In college, I studied psychology. There, the world opened to me. I learned what I had already suspected: that we all carry emotional wounds, sometimes very old ones, that affect how we behave in the world.
Please note: I do not accept any insurance. The appropriate documents will be available on the Electronic Medical Records, so that you can file your claim. You may want to check with your insurance carrier for coverage before we meet. I confirm I want to receive emails from Liliane Nahas about professional updates, news and offerings.
Couples often find themselves having the same fight over and over, and partners can find themselves talking to each other less and less. When this happens, the sense of distance and disconnection starts to feel permanent. Thinking the spark is gone and that your relationship is bogged down by day-to-day living and tasks.
Maybe you feel like you are carrying more burdens than one person can deal with. Maybe you feel stuck, sad, stressed, depressed, or anxious, and as if those feelings will never go away. One problem that I see in our culture is that we're taught to value reason over emotion. Reason is good, yes.
But tuning out our emotions has been scientifically proven to be unhealthy and leads to us feeling like we're not quite sure who we really are or how to cope with daily life.Instead of dismissing our feelings, we need to become more aware of them, to stop and feel them, so they can do their job of helping us heal and move forward.

What do you do when you feel like you have tried to reach the one you love and still end up feeling stuck? EFT can help. EFT (or Emotionally Focused Therapy) offers couples, families, and individuals a relatively short, structured path to solving their relationship problems. Dr. Sue Johnson and Dr. Les Greenberg launched EFT in the early 1980s to help partners find their way back to love and happiness.
