Length: 2:03:35

In these moments of change partners heal their relationships and shape relationships that heal. The workshop will con- sist of conceptual content, the viewing of videos of sessions, experiential exercises and discussion.
Educational Objectives:
- Outline the experiential theory of change in EFT and link it to attachment science.
- Describe the terrain of change events and how they impact client’s reality - self and system Demonstrate the key interventions that shape change in EFT.
