General Objectives of the EFT Externship:

To gain a clear understanding of the systemic concepts and basic experiential moves of an “Emotionally Focused Therapy” approach.

To hold an attachment view clients coping with their interpersonal dilemmas so you can conceptualize relationship distress and repair based on theories of attachment and emotion.

The focus of this training is on the general model of EFT as presented in the 2019 book, Attachment Theory In Practice, and how you can implement the model in couple and individual therapy sessions.

To provide the opportunity to develop skills in sharing, maintaining and engaging in an open and collaborative alliance with your clients.

To develop skillful use of the 5 moves of the basic macro-intervention “the EFT tango” in order to improve clients’ affect regulation, models of self and other strategies for engaging with others and changing interactional patterns.

To develop an ability to utilize systemic and experiential models of interventions applied as EFT micro interventions.

To participate in skills development to overcome common blocks and impasses across EFT therapy modalities so you can shape core corrective emotional experience that leads to constructive dependency and what we conceptualize as ‘secure attachment’.

This training includes an overview of the entire model of Emotionally Focused Therapy including steps and stages, interventions, adult attachment theory, and application of EFT with couples and individuals. The externship is recommended for all types of mental health clinicians to counsel or want to cancel couples.
