The externship will focus on the general model of EFT as laid out in the 2019 book, Attachment Theory and Practice, and present the model as it is implemented in couple and individual therapy sessions.\n\n\n\nParticipants will develop skills in sharing, maintaining an engaged, open and collaborative alliance with clients.\n\n\n\nParticipants will develop skills in the 5 moves of the basic macro-intervention – the EFT tango – in order to change patterns of affect regulation, models of self and other, strategies for engaging with others and interactional patterns.\n\n\n\nParticipants will develop skills in EFT micro interventions taken from experiential and systemic models of intervention.\n\n\n\nParticipants will develop skills in overcoming common blocks and impasses in all three therapy modalities and so shaping core corrective emotional experience that lead to constructive dependency and what Rogers termed ‘existential living’.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhose is this Training For?\n\n\n\nAll mental health professionals including psychiatrists, psychologists, family physicians, social workers, psychiatric nurses, counsellors (including couples and family therapists), pastors and clergy, and students training in these professions.
