Résumé: | While emotion-focused therapy (EFT) offers clinically useful information to Christian practitioners, its underlying worldview, epistemology, and emphasis present challenges for Christian therapists.

In offering these alternatives, the article encourages the creation of a distinctively Christian emotion-focused therapy (CEFT). |
