Facilitated by Robert
Elliott and Lorna Carrick
Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) is a humanistic,
evidence-based form of psychotherapy/counselling that integrates person-centred
and gestalt therapies, with particular relevance to working with depression,
trauma, and anxiety difficulties. It has gained international recognition
through the work of Les Greenberg, Laura Rice, Robert Elliott, Jeanne Watson,
Rhonda Goldman, Sandra Paivio, Antonio Pascual-Leone and others. The Counselling Unit at the University of
Strathclyde is the leading centre of EFT training in the UK, and is again
pleased to offer Level One professional training in this approach to qualified
counsellors and psychotherapists (Postgraduate Diploma/MSc Level or above).
Offered at the University of Strathclyde since
2006, this successful, four-day Level One EFT training programme will provide
participants with a grounding in the theory and skills required to work more
effectively with emotion in psychotherapy. Participants will receive in-depth
skills training through a combination of brief lectures, video demonstrations,
live modelling, case discussions, and supervised role-playing practice.
We begin with an overview of EFT Emotion Theory,
including basic principles and the role of emotion and emotional awareness in
function and dysfunction; this will be illustrated by Focusing-oriented
exercises. Differential intervention based on specific process markers will be
demonstrated. Videos of evidence based methods for evoking and exploring
emotion schemes, and for dealing with overwhelming emotions, puzzling emotional
reactions, painful self-criticism, and emotional injuries from past
relationships will be presented.
Participants will be trained in moment-by-moment
attunement to emotion, and the use of methods for dialoguing with aspects or configurations
of self and imagined significant others in an empty chair. This training will
provide therapists from person-centred, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural
and related backgrounds an opportunity to develop their therapeutic skills and
interests, and provides the first step toward certification as an EFT
therapist.
- The course could be taken for continuing professional education credit.
