Advanced Training in EFT Supervision: A Supervisor Training Workshop Series with Robert Elliott (on invitation only)

The Swiss Institute for Emotion-Focused Therapy is delighted to announce the first Advanced Training Workshop Series on EFT Supervision with Robert Elliott, Ph.D. This Workshop is designed for IEFT associated EFT supervisors / supervisors in training.

Objective

Principles and practices for EFT-I supervisors have evolved considerably over the past 5 years, and emerging from the EMPOWERINGEFT@EU project, a comprehensive competency framework for EFT-I supervision is now available, along with a training curriculum. These developments point the way forward for more robust training and accreditation for EFT supervisors. In this series of six sessions, we will provide an overview of EFT-I supervision, including presentations, videos, skill practice, discussion, and homework. We will focus on core EFT supervision practices, including:
• Affirm & Collaborate
• Say What You See
• Say What You Would Do
• Tune into/Speak out Client Experience
• Tune into Supervisee Experience
• Tell How it Works
• Look at What the Client Does Next
• Find the Red Thread
