“Underneath all the distress, partners are asking each other:  Can I count on you?  Are you there for me?  Will you respond to me when I need, when I call? Do I matter to you? Am I valued and accepted by you? Do you need me, rely on me?”

- Dr. Sue Johnson, the primary developer of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
