As reactive cycles of conflict and distance that fuel distress are identified and resolved\, the therapist then helps couples access and expand the underlying vulnerable emotions so partners shift their relation ship to one of secure engagement\, leading to a strong and enduring attach ment bond.\n\nThe effectiveness of EFT is strongly supported by over 30 ye ars of respected outcome research\, with success rates of up to 70%\, and a growing body of process research that helps identify the most impactful interventions that help create lasting change. At least two-thirds of ther apists see couples in their practice and many lack a clear\, empirically s upported treatment model that increases effectiveness. This introductory p rogram provides both new and experienced therapists the theory and basic p ractice concepts as used with diverse populations and presenting issues.\n \nThis detailed overview utilizes video examples\, brief exercises and dis cussion to facilitate participants’ understanding of EFT.\nLearning Obje ctives\nParticipants will be able to:\n1.
