Betsy Walli Sadur, PhD

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Using Emotionally Focused Therapy, I can help you reconnect with your loved one & break the repetitive negative cycles that block intimacy.

About Me

When communication feels broken and you find yourself stuck in the same painful arguments with your spouse, parent, or child, it can be deeply isolating. I understand how frustrating these repetitive cycles can be. Through Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I can guide you to uncover the underlying emotions driving your interactions. We'll work together to build a secure connection, transforming conflict into deeper understanding and rekindling closeness. This approach helps you move beyond blame towards a lasting, healthy relationship.

Approach

We’ll focus on the feelings that shape how you respond to each other and gently name moments that typically trigger distance or blame. By secure video, sessions move at a steady, curious pace — we reflect on patterns, practice new interactions in real time, and sometimes try short experiments between meetings to test what shifts. Couples and families ready to trade reactivity for clearer connection usually find this approach grounding and practical.
