Core Skills 1 - 4
Description:
In small groups, approximately 12-16 people, participants study in-depth, each of the EFT steps, through didactic instruction, role play and presentation of their own work via video tape. Participants must show 10 minutes of their work with a real couple during one of the core skills modules.
In the overall context of the EFT Tango, each Core Skills module is dedicated to specific steps of the model and the therapeutic tasks and interventions characteristic of those steps. The first module covers Stage One of EFT steps one and two, the second module covers Stage One of EFT steps three and four, the third module covers Stage Two of EFT steps five, six, and seven for the withdrawer, and the final module covers Stage Two of EFT steps five, six, and seven for the pursuer.
*The scope of this training primarily focuses on couples' work, discussing the unique complexities and challenges in these dynamics. However, the interventions and theoretical framework can also be applied in family and individual sessions.
Participants that have completed the Externship and want to continue learning EFT can continue on to Core Skills. Core Skills is the second EFT training series required for EFT certification. Core Skills is divided into four learning modules, each 12 hours long. During each module, specific emphasis and immersion is placed on each stage and step of EFT.
This is an introductory program for all mental health professionals.
