University of Strathclyde,
Glasgow
Facilitated by
Professor Robert Elliott & Lorna Carrick
The
Emotion-Focused Therapy Masterclass Series is open to counsellors and
psychotherapists (Diploma level or above) who have completed Level Two or Level
Three training in EFT. If it’s been a
while since you did EFT training, it can serve as a refresher course and enable
you to catch up on more recent developments in EFT theory, practice and
training.
Each day will
feature a mix of EFT Practice Check-in (mini supervisions), brief presentations
of specialist material on EFT; video or live demonstrations; in-depth
supervision of client work; small group skill practice; and group processing. Emphasis
will be on putting EFT into practice and examining blocks to effective practice.
Participants are expected to bring client case material to each session,
in the form of either session recordings or process notes.
Sessions can be
signed up for either individually or as a six-day package. All six masterclasses will be day-long Monday
sessions, from January to June 2016, and held in the main city centre campus of
the University of Strathclyde. This course allows participants the opportunity
to work toward the expert-supervision-own-work criterion for EFT-Individual Certification
Level A (Completion of Training, 5 hrs) or Level B (Completion of Supervision,
15 hrs) and can also be taken in place of EFT Level 3.

EFT for Anger: EFT is particularly useful for working with anger
issues. In this session we’ll look at
the EFT analysis of anger, tasks that work particularly well with anger, and
therapist personal issues around anger that can affect how you work with
angry clients. Skill practice and
supervision will be emphasised. Bring
in material from your angry clients.

EFT for
Psychological Contact Difficulties: A recent development for EFT
is the incorporation of psychological contact work into EFT, opening up the
possibility of using EFT for clients with psychotic, dissociative or autistic
processes. We will focus on the
psychological contact task, including videos or live demonstration,
supervision of client and small group skill practice. Bring material from your clients who may
dip in and out of psychological contact during sessions; if you don’t work
with such clients, bring in material on clients who may be hard to reach in
other ways, such as externalising process, silence or emotion dysregulation.

EFT for
Depression: EFT has been
shown to be highly effective for helping clients with depression. In this session I will provide an overview
of experiential processes in depression and key EFT tasks in depression,
including self-criticism splits, self-interruption, and unfinished
business. The session will include
videos or live demonstration, supervision of client work, and small group
skill practice. Bring in material from
your depressed clients.

Therapeutic
Difficulties in EFT: As with all approaches to therapy,
relational problems occur in EFT, including ruptures between client and
therapist. In this session, I present
an overview of the different types of therapeutic difficulty; a model for
processing therapist negative reactions; and key therapist strategies for
addressing these difficulties, including both personal work and relational
dialogue with clients. Bring your
therapeutic difficulties and dilemmas with clients!
