EFT for Social Anxiety
Applying EFT to clients presenting with social anxiety (EFT-AS), a debilitating fear of other people. This approach is promising because it provides an alternative to a common but difficult-to-treat psychological difficulty that up until now has been almost exclusively the province of CBT. This is important because many clients have either had previous unsuccessful courses of CBT for SA or prefer a less directive, more relational approach. In addition, EFT-AS can help EFT practitioners extend their practice to a new, challenging and complex client population, helping them to develop additional skills for working effectively with all their clients.

Integrating EFST into EFT for Individuals II
We’ve all been there with some clients – in a cycle of non-resolving self-criticism or unfinished business. Learn how to integrate the EFST Discrepancy chair task into your EFT work, to help your client discover, process, and resolve the “competing motivations” that keep them stuck. For EFSTers, learn how to integrate traditional EFT chair tasks into EFST, to resolve underlying issues that prevent the resolution of competing motivations.

Dealing with Difficult Situations in EFT
This workshop focuses on dealing with difficult (interpersonal) situations in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT). The emphasis is on those moments when our usual therapeutic practices reach their limits.
In addition to specifying these difficulties in more detail, concrete approaches will be developed from an EFT perspective. The focus is less on techniques and more on basic therapeutic attitudes—in particular, congruence.
The workshop is a repetition of the workshop held in October 2025, which received such positive feedback.

Empathy is a verb; it is both a way of being and a way of doing
Carl Rogers' person-centred approach defines the therapeutic alliance as the agent of change: a safe, non-judgemental relationship built on congruence, unconditional positive regard and empathy. Based on this foundation, EFT aims to optimise the therapist's empathic attunement, encouraging them to open themselves up to the client's experience and respond with their own grounded, caring presence. The therapist's inner experience is central to learning and carrying out effective EFT.
This workshop primarily focuses on this inner experience.
Of the six steps of the empathy cycle (1. presence; 2. entering the world of the other; 3. resonating; 4. searching for poignancy; 5. expressing; and 6. Monitoring), we will focus on resonating, searching, and finding the right words or symbols.
These steps also form the core of Gendlin's focusing: with a focusing attitude, we enter our inner world and turn our attention inwards, starting to resonate and find the right words for our bodily felt experience.
In this workshop, we will elaborate on these essential steps of empathy and practice them in small groups to optimise these skills and integrate them into our practice.
