EFCT Externships 

Join us and immerse yourself in the theory and practise of Emotionally Focused Therapy for adults in intimate partnerships.
This four day course is the foundation of the training required towards becoming a Certified EFT therapist.
It is relevant to those both new to working with adults in intimate relationships as well as experienced therapists.

The course is intense and engages you both professionally and personally. It includes presentations, videos, live EFT session(s), exercises, small group work - including role plays, and discussion/Q&A sessions. We will explore the impact of intersecting identities and context on relationships and our EFT work with clients.
I welcome participants in all aspects of your intersecting identities and aim to enable a positive learning environment where we are caring of, and open to, each other and ourselves as we work together.

​ICEEFT Stance on Diversity
We aim to cultivate a climate of inclusion, an environment where all can feel safe, valued, cared for, and given an opportunity to form meaningful connections with each other. In all facets of our work we strive to embody what we hope to see in the world — a just, loving humanity and community in which people are free to be themselves fully — where people can embrace their most basic universal human attachment needs without fear of persecution or marginalization as a result of religion, race, ethnic or national origin, sexual orientation, gender expression, age, class, mental health, physical character or disability. These values are inherent in the attachment science and humanistic approach to intervention that all our work is based on.
Specifically, humanistic approaches such as EFT are collaborative and respectful. We create a safe place for people and treat them as persons, not problems or types. Our approach is non-pathologizing in practice.
Our values are inclusive and egalitarian while viewing human connection as sacred — something to be honoured and cultivated.
Our scientific and theoretical base outlines key universals, emotion and attachment, while respecting individual differences.

Diversity and Widening Participation Reduced Fee Places
I, and trainers I work with, actively welcome therapists in all their diversity and recognise that being a member of one or more minority groups and / or working for minority groups may result in the cost of the course being prohibitive. On some of the courses where I am a trainer we offer some widening participation reduced fee places. click here to find out if you are eligible and how to apply.
