Simon’s (2004) examination of the integrative nature of emotionally focused therapy (EFT) fails to describe accurately EFT and its promise in therapy integration. EFT is not merely assimilative but moves toward an effective synthesis of key theories. There is a revolution occurring in couple and family therapy. There is a confluence of data on the nature of distress and health in relationships, data on attachment as an explanatory framework, and data on the nature and role of emotion in relationships. We need models characterized by effective synthesis to give us a map to the territory and a way home. Such a synthesis is now possible.
