About Emotional Freedom Counseling
Emotional Freedom Counseling
Emotional Freedom Counseling (EFC) is a counseling center for healing and transformation for children, families, and adults with deep emotional and mental challenges in their lives. We are an elite counseling clinic with specialized training in therapy methods and techniques that not only address surface cognitive and behavioral issues in children, youth, and adults, but also the deeper emotional under-currents that determine the level of peace, acceptance, and fulfillment people feel in their lives and relationships. In essence, EFC serves as a one-stop clinic for the education, healing, and guidance for all members of the family individually (e.g., children, teens, and adults) and together in the form of couples, parent-child, and whole family therapy.
Our clinicians specialize in both play therapy with children and in family therapy with children and teens with their parents. Play therapy is the most effective and developmentally-friendly approach for dealing with trauma and deep emotional issues in children. EFC ensures that its clinicians working with children are effectively trained in play therapy and guided in their therapeutic work of your children. Dr. Haslam possesses the highest credential of training available in the practice of play therapy and trains and supervises all of the therapists working in the clinic. Additionally, most of our clinicians have specialized training and education in couples and family therapy, employing the state of the art and most effective theories and approaches in helping families make deep changes that can bring them greater peace and happiness, as well as emotional connection. Dr. Haslam is a doctoral level marriage and family therapist and has taught numerous courses in family therapy at the graduate university level for nearly 20 years. Again, he trains and supervises all therapists working in the clinic with families in order to ensure EFC provides the highest level of therapeutic care.
Lastly, EFC focuses on providing deep emotional healing and transformation for teens and adults through both high impact talk-based therapies but also emotionally engaging therapies such as a guided imagery, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotional Focused Therapy, and mind-body grounding and breathwork techniques (including Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)). Emotional Freedom is the core concept in our clinic's name and embodies our central goal to provide deep emotional peace and healing for our clients, and really freedom from the destructive emotions and mental patterns that can take control of us and sabotage our happiness in life, our self-esteem, and the emotional health of our relationships. EFC is not just a counseling office. It is a powerful center for healing, education, guidance, and transformation for children, families, and adults.
We provide individual, couples, and family therapy and at times group therapy and classes for parents, teens, and children. Currently, EFC has no waiting list since our clinic is new and expanding its services.
