Who Should Attend:
📌 This training is ideal for counselors, therapists, and social workers looking to deepen their practice with families.
✅ No prior experience with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is required. Note: ICEEFT recommends taking Fundamentals of EFT prior to this course (may be especially helpful for individuals with no prior experience with EFT). However, we encourage you to join us for EFFT Essentials even if you have zero experience with EFT!
About the Training:
Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) is an attachment-based model that integrates systemic and experiential approaches to heal fractured family relationships. EFFT therapists focus on the emotional experiences within families, identifying and transforming problem patterns that block connection and resilience. By fostering emotional accessibility and responsiveness, EFFT helps families create secure bonds, reduce problematic behaviors, and build a foundation for growth and healing.
Through experiential exercises and live demonstrations, this training offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience and insight into this transformative approach.
