EFT in Action: Working with Anxiety
The AIEFT is excited to be hosting ‘Emotion Focused Therapy in Action’, a workshop series run by Barry Strmelj. These workshops are suitable for practitioners with a background in EFT training (at least EFT Level 1) and who utilise, or are looking to incorporate EFT into their work with clients.
Anxiety can be a common but debilitating issue for clients seeking help. In this workshop we will look at how to work with anxiety using emotion-focused therapy. This will include how we understand and formulate anxiety from an EFT perspective and how developing a healing therapeutic relationship helps enhance clients self-acceptance and affect regulation to support coping with life’s challenges and strengthen a vulnerable self. In particular, the workshop will look at how using chairwork to work with anxiety and worry splits - where one part of self scares, catastrophises, and worries another part of self - can undo the negative self treatment that interrupts, dismisses and constricts emotional experience and feelings. This allows primary painful feelings and underlying core needs to emerge and healing to occur.
