Resources for EFT therapists

Learning to integrate the EFT map and the required skills to practice the model safely can be a long and arduous road when traveled alone. If you’d like to feel supported in your process of learning and integrating the EFT model for couples (EFCT) and individuals (EFIT), here’s how I can help you:

Individual supervision in EFT-Couples or EFT-Individuals

  • 50-minute meetings
  • Frequency to be determined with the supervisee
  • Customized follow-up of the therapist’s learning goals:
    • theoretical conceptualization of clinical cases and/or model
    • experiential practice/ role-playing
    • certification process
    • work on the self-of-therapist

Group supervision in EFT-Couples

  • Bi-monthly 2-hour meetings (Mondays 2 to 4 p.m. or Fridays 9 to 11 a.m. EST)
  • Supervision of 2 clinical cases per meeting
  • Modeling through observation of other participants’ sessions
  • In a safe and welcoming environment, participants are supported on theoretical conceptualization of clinical cases and/or the EFT model, on experiential practice/role-playing, on the certification process, and working on the self-of-therapist (when necessary).
  • A space for exchange where the experience and support of the group are used to foster learning.

Educational activities:

Tango experiential practice group (in French)

For therapists who wish to practice the micro- and macro-interventions of the EFT-Couples model! (with Dr. Caroline Gasparetto and Dr. Véronique Franche)

In the program:

  • Theoretical overview of each Tango macro-intervention (move);
  • Viewing of video excerpts from supervisors’ work with real clients, illustrating the implementation of each Tango move;
  • Experiential practice through role-playing with colleagues or deliberate practice workouts to consolidate specific skills;
  • Integration of the main micro-interventions of the EFT model.
