Registration is officially open for the Fall 2023 EFT Externship in Knoxville taking place August 23-26! Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a powerful, attachment-based, model of counseling that is highly effective for couples, families and individuals. A model of therapy developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, EFT is considered the gold-standard approach, particularly when working with couples. Rather than being simply educational in nature or teaching couples how to "fight fair," EFT actually helps couples experience long term shifts in their ways of connecting and bonding.

The goal of Grace Counseling Associates providers is to offer space to help individuals, couples and families find healing and connection. We are trained in evidence-based models of counseling, as well as coaching services, and passionate about helping good people live great lives.

We are not meant to live in a state of despair or confusion, yet many of us find ourselves there at times... likely more than once! It can be difficult to know when to reach out for assistance and, even when you feel ready to ask for help, it can be a great challenge to connect with a provider you feel you can trust with your most valued people and connections... your family, your marriage, your child(ren) and yourself. Grace Counseling Associate providers bring evidence-based clinical training and experience, as well as their heart, into session with clients. 

Providers at Grace Counseling Associates share a Christian worldview, as well as share perspectives about the interventions and techniques that lead to long-term, healing and change. Collectively, our desire is to offer space where people can bring their hurts and find compassion, clarity and hope. Where clients can experience what it is like to be held with compassion in a truth-based setting.

GCA providers have, and continually seek, advanced training in leading models and methods of counseling and coaching. We enjoy building relationships with our clients, so that they always have a place to return should they need to find us again in the future. Connecting with providers you trust, especially when it comes to such personal matters within our marriages and our homes, is paramount. Grace Counseling Associates providers keep this top of mind in our work and it shows in the referrals we receive from past and current clients, as well as colleagues.
