What to expect - EFT-C -Level 1
Emotion Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT-C) is one of the most researched forms of couples therapy. The essential goal of EFT-C is to identify negative interaction patterns and create new, healthy interactions. Greenberg and Goldman's (2008) approach builds on Greenberg and Johnson's (1988) approach. However, it focuses not only on the attachment needs and increasing the emotional responsiveness within the couple, but also on identity needs, the process of emotional self-regulation and the personal transformation of maladaptive emotions into more primarily adaptive emotions in each partner.
​
Participants receive in-depth skill training through a combination of didactic lectures, video demonstrations, live modeling, extensive supervised skill practice and self-reflection. The supervised real-play skill practice provides participants the unique opportunity to be therapist, client and observer in small break-out groups.​
The training will be conducted in a humanistic learning environment, prioritizing safety to encourage exploration and foster growth.
​
This 8 half-day EFT-C Module 1 training will cover following topics:
-
Introduction to basics of theory including emotion theory, and systemic/interactional theory
-
Discussion of 3 systems (attachment, identity, attraction/liking) underlying couple interactions
-
Distinguishing and working with attachment and identity
-
Empathic attunement to affect
-
Working with alliance issues in couples
-
Discussion of different types of cycles
-
Thorough and detailed discussion of 5 stage, 14 step model
-
Working with emotional injuries, betrayal and forgiveness
​​
This training will be conducted in English.
