Working with Emotion Waves in the Therapy Room

This week’s Tend to it Tuesday post explored how somatic therapy and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) pair beautifully to support emotional regulation — not through suppression, but by staying with the wave.

As a therapist, I see this integration play out in real time: when clients realize they don’t have to "get rid of" an emotion to feel better — they just have to stay present with it, safely.
