October 2026 | EFIT Essentials

EFIT is an attachment science-based approach to individual therapy that, like the other EFT interventions, offers an integration of humanistic experiential interventions focused on reshaping intrapsychic experience and systemic interventions focused on reshaping patterns of engagement with significant others. Emotion is given precedence because of its powerful role in structuring inner experience, motivation, and key interactional patterns in relationships. Emotion links and organizes core experience and interaction.Emotion moves people. Understanding the intuition of emotion and how to use it to create potent and sustainable change moves both the client and therapist. Sessions become more focused and effective. Corrective emotional experiences transform, shift perspectives, shift thoughts about self, about trust, confidence and competence. It is an organic process: when emotions are tapped into and used effectively, a shift in thoughts naturally follows.Emotion is a reliable guide post, and the destination is clear: secure attachment. The lens of attachment helps us to see and understand individuals in context. EFT provides us with the tools, a roadmap, to help each individual achieve a secure connection with themselves and their most important relationships.
Goals:
To offer corrective experiences that positively impact models of self and other and shape stable, lasting change.
To offer transformative moments where vulnerability is encountered with balance.
To enable clients to move into the accessibility/openness, responsiveness and full engagement that characterizes secure attachment with others.
To enable clients to shape a coherent sense of a competent self that can deal with existential life issues and become a fully alive human being.
To help clients overcome stuckness and unlock their natural growth potential.
Transform your practice – and your clients – with EFIT through this in person course.
