Online EFIT Essentials (Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy, Led by EFT Trainers Robert Allan & Helene Igwebuike on the 22-23rd & 29-30th April 2027, 2027, 12:30 - 8PM UK time

The four-day EFIT Essentials workshop is based on the attachment-based humanistic and systemic EFT model developed by Sue Johnson and is the first step to becoming a Certified Emotionally Focused Individual Therapist.

EFIT Essentials is a single course divided into 4 modules/days. The next workshop will be held online via Zoom Thursday to Friday on the 22-23rd & 29-30th April 2027 by ICEEFT Certified EFT Trainers, Dr Robert Allan and Helene Igwebuike.

Day 1 and Day 2 on 22-23rd April 2027: Participants will learn the theory, key interventions and skills to masterfully tune into, order, and use the transformative power of potent emotion and attachment to literally ‘move’ clients into a new sense of self and 'emotional fitness', which results in an increased sense of competence and worth, a sense of secure connection with self and others, and overcoming symptoms of emotional disorders.

Day 3 and Day 4 on 29-30th April 2027: With more extensive discussion and experiential practice, you will deepen your understanding of EFIT while discovering effective ways to overcome barriers and obstacles to change and support for working with challenging clients and situations. Participants are encouraged to identify examples where difficulty in implementing EFIT and/or the Tango may occur.
