THE
course
We are deeply honored to have been invited to help nurture the growing EFT community in Hawai'i.
This 45-hour course, offered over two long weekends, will help you deepen and fine-tune the complex skills needed to be an advanced EFT practitioner. Through lecture, video review, small-group discussion and extensive experiential exercises, your understanding of the model will take root.
​
PLEASE NOTE: You must have completed an Externship and a Core Skills to take this course.
​
This course will be open for registration beginning in late summer 2019.
​
​
This course aims to deepen understanding and develop skills to better help couples heal their connection. We will emphasize the most up-to-date understanding of how to learn and practice EFT as described in Sue Johnson’s new book, Attachment Theory in Practice.
​
Additional topics covered will include:
​
- managing the crisis of affair discovery;
- the transition from stage 1 to stage 2;
- working with trauma in EFT, and more.
​
And you will have the opportunity to bring a couple for a live session with one of the teaching team!
We want this to be a chance for everyone to gain confidence and skill, and to dive into the nuances of this complex work among a supportive community of fellow learners. Enrollment is limited. CEUs will be provided for those who complete the full course.
