Day-long
workshop for counselling professionals
Couples
Therapy in the 21st century – a new era
The workshop
will outline the Emotionally Focused Model of Couple Therapy (EFT), and how it
illustrates the new science of love and bonding. The EFT model represents the
cutting edge of couple interventions and addresses the three main tasks of
therapy; creating a safe haven alliance, working to regulate and transform
emotions and emotional signals, and choreographing a couple’s dance to foster
emotional connection and fulfill attachment needs.
The day will include didactic
presentations on love and attachment, the state of couple therapy and the
conceptual and clinical base of EFT as well as experiential exercises and
observation and discussion of therapy sessions.
Participants
will be able to:
·
Outline the
laws of human bonding and how they operate in adult love
relationships.
·
List the
stages, steps, and interventions of EFT.
·
Make sense
of the stuck places that perpetuate negative cycles and emotional disconnection
in love relationships.
·
Describe
how to set up new bonding interactions that redefine connection and change
working models of attachment.
·
Outline how
to adapt the model to different individuals, including escalated, traumatized,
and depressed partners.
·
Consider
how the therapist’s style fits with the model or creates blocks in working with
emotion and shaping new dances.
The package price for the keynote and
one day workshop is $300. Accommodation and meals are
extra.
