FOR INDIVIDUALS, COUPLES AND FAMILIES LOOKING FOR A QUALIFIED EFT THERAPIST

The Promise of EFIT in Unravelling and Treating Intergenerational Trauma

Course Outline

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT; S. Johnson) is best known as a potent couple intervention but has always, from its inception, been used in clinical practice with individuals. This workshop focuses on Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) as it applies to working with individuals struggling with the echoes of trauma, including intergenerational trauma. Attachment science and an experiential Humanistic approach offer a map that simplifies how we view and frame clients’ problems, and how we intervene across the three-stage therapy process. The ‘experiential assessment’ tunes the therapist into clients’ strengths and vulnerabilities to chart clients’ therapeutic journey toward a felt sense of security in self and others – the pathway to symptom resolution and the antidote to trauma.
