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 the identity needs, the process of emotional self-regulation and the personal transformation of maladaptive emotions into more primarily adaptive emotions in each partner. 

Program

This 4-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
• Self-soothing

As a follow up to this first module, a personal supervision process will be offered for the willing, either in person or in group supervision. In the future, we will offer a second module for those who wish to deepen their EFT-C skills and work towards ISEFT certification (iseft.org/Standards-for-couples).

You are a trained psychotherapist, who is working with couples, or you are committed to starting this path. Some training in Emotion Focused Therapy for Individuals (ISEFT) and/or Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (ICEEFT) is an added value but not necessary.
