Navigating the Coming Out Journey Together
LGBTherapy for Couples
How it Works
Navigating the Coming Out journey with your partner can be just as difficult as doing it alone. Whereas individuals can go years without ever coming out to their friends and families, couples often have a yearning to be known by their loved ones, but they disagree on how to do it due to cultural, religious, and personality differences. When meeting with you and your partner for Couples Therapy, I also use Emotionally Focused Therapy, but rather than turning towards oneself, I will have you turn towards your partner to help you become more vulnerable with your core emotions so that you both can learn how to be more authentic and understand each other’s attachment needs.
Common issues addressed:
How to start the Coming Out Journey together
How to be more vulnerable with each other

EFCT
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy—or EFCT for short—is all about helping couples learn how to be more vulnerable with their core emotions so that they can live more authentically with each other. However, this is easier said than done because couples who come in for therapy often struggle with differentiating between their primary and secondary emotions, and this is what leads to developing unhealthy attachment cycles in the relationship. That being said, EFCT helps couples learn how to express their attachment needs to each other in healthier ways by teaching them how to move past their secondary emotions and uncover their primary emotions. If you want to learn how to break unhealthy cycles with your partner and begin understanding each other in new ways, please call or text me (Jeremiah) at (949) 524-9362 today.
