Do you ever have moments where, despite your training, it’s hard to access EFT in the way you’d like in session?
Many therapists find that while they understand EFT, accessing the right intervention in the moment can feel challenging — especially when sessions become emotionally intense.
This 5-week, practice-focused training centres on Skills 1-6 EFT interventions, helping you move from knowing EFT to using it with confidence and precision in real time.
Strengthen clinical precision and timing
Build skill fluency under pressure
Deepen moment-to-moment attunement
Develop confidence in when and how to apply each EFT intervention
Rather than learning more theory, this is an opportunity to gently and intentionally embed the skills — so they’re there when you need them most.
DATE: Thurs 15 Oct – Thurs 12 Nov 2026 (5 consecutive Thursday sessions)
TIME: 9.00AM - 11.00AM (AEDT)
LOCATION: Online

What is EFT
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an attachment-based approach that highlights the role of emotions in creating strong, meaningful bonds. It supports well-being by fostering secure, connected relationships.
EFT is used with individuals, couples, and families to explore and understand emotional responses, behaviours, and thoughts. This process helps people connect with their core needs and those who matter most, leading to a more fulfilling and connected life.
