About Externship & Core Skills
The 4-Day Externship is designed to give you a clear understanding of the basic experiential and systemic concepts of an "Emotionally Focused" approach to couples therapy. You will learn how to conceptualize couple distress and relationship repair based on theories of attachment and emotion, and develop skills in helping partners reprocess the emotional responses that maintain relational distress. An Externship includes observation of live therapy sessions, presentations of theory and clinical techniques, skills training exercises, and discussion of specific cases, clinical material and issues. Externship can be completed as a stand-alone training in EFT, however if you want to pursue certification you will also need to complete Core Skills.
Once your complete the 4-day Externship, you are invited to attend Core Skills. Core Skills is designed to give you a "deeper dive" into each stage, step, and intervention that make up an "Emotionally Focused" approach. In Core Skills, you will be expected to show clips of your EFT therapy in action with couples.
Who should attend Externship & Core Skills?
Externship & Core Skills are recommended to all professionals who counsel couples, including psychiatrists, psychologists, family physicians, social workers, psychiatric nurses, counsellors, pastors and clergy, and students training in these professions. Registrants will be required to declare their professional designation.
