ICE EFT, Online with Dr. Samuel Paul Greenman

“EFIT Essentials” (equivalent to EFIT Levels 1 and 2) is a training in the EFT for Individuals (EFIT) stream. There are also equivalent courses in EFT for Couples (EFCT) and EFT for Families (EFFT) streams.

Overview

Explore the enriching journey of Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) through our EFIT Essentials training. This consolidated program is an amalgamation of our previous Level 1 and Level 2 trainings, offered since 2024 as a seamless, intensive learning experience. The training is structured to provide a solid foundation and an advanced understanding of the EFIT model, embedded within an attachment science framework. Through a blend of theoretical instruction and experiential exercises, participants will be guided to apply the model with individuals in their practice, fostering their growth as adept, attuned, and responsive EFIT therapists.

This 4-day (24hr) training event is a didactic and experiential program where participants will be invited to apply the principles and interventions of Emotionally Focused Therapy with individuals. The training will delve into the heart of the empirically-validated EFIT model, presenting a coherent framework for understanding individual emotional processing and change.
