Workshops with Dr. Sue Johnson - ANNULÉES

In this introductory workshop, Dr Sue Johnson outlines how to tap into the power of our wired-in attachment system to facilitate emotional health in individual, couple and family therapy using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). A unique feature of EFT is that it goes beyond helping clients gain insight into their attachment style. In this presentation, clinicians will get an overview of how to move clients into new experiences that will expand their sense of self and broaden their emotional-behavioural repertoire for building the secure attachment relationships they need for optimal emotional health and well-being.

When: 14. may 2020, 7pm
Where: Auditoire César-Roux, CHUV, Lausanne
Language: English
Admission: Admission is free; no registration required.
Organized by: the Swiss Society for Emotion-Focused Therapies (EFT-CH)

This presentation will look at the links between dealing with medical issues such as heart disease and the quality of patients’ relationships. We will focus on attachment science, what it tells us about relationships and how we can enhance these relationships to increase effective ways of helping people deal with health issues. The presentation will consist of a lecture and discussion of issues, the viewing of therapy sessions and experiential exercises to give participants a sense of the basic structure of interventions in EFT.

You’ll discover how to:
•Use attachment theory and science as a roadmap for work in any modality.
•Encourage vulnerability by incorporating the “Soft, Slow, Simple” approach into your therapeutic style and learn how to assemble and use emotion to shape change.
