The popular basic 4-day Externship in EFT, taught in over 40 countries by ICEEFT certified trainers, is centered on working with individuals and dyads in distressed relationships and addressing dysfunctional patterns of emotion regulation and ways of engaging with one another that undermine secure bonding interactions, but it also outlines change techniques as used in EFIT sessions. EFT has also generated many relationship education programs, for example Hold Me Tight® : Conversations for Connection and its online version Created for Connection for Christian couples, Healing Hearts Together for couples dealing with cardiac dysfunction, Hold Me Tight®/Let Me Go for families with teens, and Hold Me Tight®/Let Me Be Me for families with adult children. Most EFT research to date has focused on outcome and process of change studies with couples, and EFT for couples is the gold standard for empirically validated intervention in this field. A summary and goals of each of the three modalities are laid out below.
This model operationalizes the principles of attachment science using non-pathologizing experiential (paralleling Carl Rogers) and relational systems techniques (paralleling Salvador Minuchin) to focus on and change core organizing factors in both the self and key relationships. The EFT model prioritizes emotion and emotional regulation as the key organizing agents in individual experience and key relationship interactions.ĮFT is best known as a cutting edge, tested and proven couple intervention, but it is also used to address individual depression, anxiety and post traumatic stress (EFIT – Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy) and to repair family bonds (EFFT – Emotionally Focused Family Therapy). Attachment views human beings as innately relational, social and wired for intimate bonding with others. This science has expanded our understanding of individual dysfunction and health as well as the nature of love relationships and family bonds. What is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)?Įmotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a well-known humanistic approach to psychotherapy formulated in the 1980’s and developed in tandem with the science of adult attachment, a profound developmental theory of personality and intimate relationships.
