Welcome to the new immersive EFT Core Skills- 24 hour Model.

We have listened to your community request and are rolling out this new EFT Core Skills format!

This is a streamlined EFT training for therapists looking for an immersive EFT experience with an EFT Trainer and EFT Supervisors.  At the end of this 24 hr training you will have the knowledge and experience to complete a thorough EFT couple assessment and the skill to begin EFT Stage 2 treatment. 


Per new ICEEFT guidelines, this is your next step after the EFT Couple Externship. This core skills is for people who want to get certified as an EFT clinician and those who are committed to being an excellent couple therapist.  


December’s training is all about EFT Stage One - Alliance, Assessment and De-escalation 

We’ll be taking a deeper dive into a review of the EFT Stage One.


February’s training is moving onto EFT Stage Two - These two days we will be focused on restructuring the couple process and changing events in EFT Couple therapy.  


Starting in December and ending Late February we will also be offering group supervision in several different areas. It is highly encouraged that you are attending at a minimum one or two hours a month where you are having your work reviewed by the EFT supervisor team for this core skills cohort.  

 

In order to attend this 24 hour EFT Advanced training, you must meet all the following criteria below. 


  • Be a licensed or pre-licensed clinician in a mental health field or a full/part time student in a masters level program concentrated on psychology. 
  • Have completed the EFCT Externship before December 2024. 
  • Be willing to risk and get to know yourself and the other self selecting amazing clinicians who want to become masters at working and changing the way they work with couples. 
  • Recording and review your work in an ongoing EFT supervision and/or consultation group or individual consultation or supervision throughout your time commitment with us.  Before our first meeting we will be sending information about these groups for you to decide the best route for you.
