Love and Healing Therapy provides a safe place for clients to learn skills for dealing with today and the future. Sometimes it is not easy to be in present day if we are carrying around the past. Many have been taught to put on the mask and all will be well. Sometimes we need help to let the mask fall and see the real person.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or out of control? Does your life feel out of balance? Maybe you don't like the way you feel about yourself and negativity weighs you down. Perhaps relationships with others are difficult and it’s hard to tell people no, even when you want to. Do simple things feel unmanageable right now? Sleep might be difficult – maybe it's hard to fall or stay asleep. Perhaps you have nightmares or feel like your brain can't shut down. You keep trying to push it aside, but it’s getting harder and harder to pretend everything is okay. When we struggle, it can feel lonely and isolating. You don't have to feel so alone.

My name is Christopher Baumann, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I understand that often we go through life managing internal struggles, while attempting to navigate our circumstances. By seeking greater understanding into us and our relationships, we may come face to face with our deepest doubts and fears. Avoiding struggles and pain opens up the possibility for dysfunction, negativity, and neglect. Being a human is messy. It's not as neat as our "should" and "shouldn't" would have us believe. You are allowed to talk about things that upset you. You are allowed to hold people accountable.

Navigating infertility and pregnancy loss are some of the most intense journeys that people can be forced to experience. You might be trying to cope with complex emotions of feeling overwhelmed, angry, bitter, or even confused by the journey you're navigating. Maybe you've tried talking to your friends & family; only to be met with comments of being told to "stop thinking about it so much", "I'm sure it will work out" or any phrase that begins with "at least" and end up feeling more isolated than you did before.

Emotionally Focused Therapists

Who is emotionally focused therapy for?

Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) is for couples who are emotionally distressed, stuck in an unsatisfying relationship pattern or feeling deeply alienated. They may even believe the relationship is beyond repair. Very often, the partners display intense anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal in the relationship. In addition, EFT is helpful to couples and individuals who have difficulty expressing emotions and those who have trouble regulating emotions.

Why do people need emotionally focused therapy?

People need emotionally focused therapy because the need for others is built into the brain, but the pressures of daily life can erode feelings of love, and couples often do not have the skills to find their way back to the comfort of each other. Instead, they may be stuck in repetitive patterns of anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal. Emotionally focused therapy regards such strong negative feelings as expressions of protest over the loss of connection and turns them into pathways of reconnection.

What happens in emotionally focused therapy?

Over the course of eight to 20 weekly sessions, couples de-escalate their negative emotional reactivity to one another so that they can listen to each other and be responsive to each other’s needs. Then the deep emotional and physical bond is restored, giving partners a sense of comfort and security, which they can use to solve whatever problems come their way. The therapist plays an active role, helping partners understand how anger and withdrawal are actually misguided cries for connection.

What problems does emotionally focused therapy treat?

EFT is designed to help couples stuck in dysfunctional relationship patterns regain closeness and rebuild their relationship. Typically, such couples experience considerable distress, with partners feeling alienated and distrustful of one another, not certain their relationship can survive. EFT is also helpful to individuals experiencing attachment-related fears of loss; it helps them learn to use their fears as a way of eliciting the closeness they desire.
