Abstract:
:Emotion-focused therapy (EFT) is an integrative-humanistic, research-informed, psychological intervention characterized by sustained focus on the client's emotional pain and its transformation. This article discusses the impacts on the therapist when encountering and transforming the client's vulnerability. It is organized around the different phases of the therapy process: meeting a new client, accessing the client's core emotional pain, transforming the client's emotional pain, and ending the therapeutic work. The article also contains personal experiences of the author and provides illustrations of impactful events from therapy sessions. The work, it is suggested, provides significant learning for the therapist on both a personal and a professional level, leading, for example, to the therapist's maturation, better connection with personal hurts and vulnerabilities, greater courage in regard to sharing such feelings, greater kindness toward others and the self, and greater determination to be braver when facing adversity or injustice.
