Sex as a Safe Adventure with Zoya Simakhodskaya and Mike Moran
2024-03-21 07:00 - 2024-03-23 12:00 | Online (via Zoom)
Course Information
Do your clients in relationships present with complaints of sexual issues, such as:

Discrepancies in desire
Boredom in the bedroom
Discovery of out of control sexual behaviors
Arousal or orgasmic problems
Sexual challenges after having children
Trouble after infidelity or in the wake of trauma

From the perspective of Emotionally Focused Therapy, such complaints are often part of an underlying lack of security and bond in the relationship caused by the negative cycle between partners. At times, as the partners de-escalate and become more secure, sexual issues remain unresolved. Yet, many EFT therapists lack sex assessment and intervention knowledge and skills.
This workshop is designed to give you a strong foundation where sexual issues are the presenting problem in relationship therapy. An introduction to up-to-date research on current models of sexuality will be presented. You will learn how to assess both the negative relational cycle and the sexual cycle so you can skillfully work using EFT interventions with both cycles to help your clients move to de-escalation. This workshop will also address how to integrate psycho-education and simple behavioral sex therapy interventions as partners move into Stage 2 while simultaneously building a secure bond through increased vulnerability. We will also address sexual concerns in non-traditional relationships (ethical non-monogamy, kink, diverse sexual expressions). This workshop will include a lecture, video examples, and experiential exercises.

2024-05-30 09:00 - 16:30 | Toowoomba City Library, 155 Herries Street, Toowoomba, QLD, 4350, Australia
Grounded in attachment science and drawing on cutting-edge research, this course is a 1-day introduction to Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Attachment Theory for all modalities: individual, couple, and family therapy. More than just an introduction, Fundamentals provides the overall context of EFT and explains how Dr Sue Johnson’s original “couple” model can be applied effectively in work with families (typically engaging with dyads) and individuals (e.g., working with the individual and a younger / child self, or the individual and the inner experience of another person in their life).
If you are interested in evidence-based, systemic and experiential approaches to common psychological presentations (depression, anxiety, interpersonal issues), this course is for you.
Course Information
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

Summarize the EFT perspective – experiential, growth-oriented.
Describe the key tenets of attachment theory.
Identify the goals and stages of the EFT model across modalities.
Outline the core EFT interventions as they apply and differ in three modalities: individuals suffering from depression, anxiety and PTSD, distressed couples and distressed families.
Specify the strengths of attachment theory and science as a map to understanding client problems and strengths and how attachment guides every session.
Utilize attachment science as a moment-to-moment guide to the shaping of potent systematic change in psychotherapy sessions.
Define the moves of the EFT Tango and how they differ across modalities.

This training is ideally for:

Social Workers, Counsellors and Psychologists working in government organisations or NGOs
Medical Social Workers working in hospitals and medical institutions.
Psychologists and Counsellors in private practice

Join QCEFT as they host inspirational EFT trainer Michael Barnett (USA), a world-leading authority on working with addiction & EFT, for an in-depth online masterclass. This experiential training is designed to give EFT therapists the confidence and skills to work more effectively with couples impacted by addiction.
In this 12-hour experiential training, we will explore specific and necessary ways to tailor EFT skills and interventions in order to better address the impact that addiction has on the couple therapy process. Video clips of therapy sessions will be used to demonstrate concepts and interventions.
Psychotherapy with couples is both multi-layered and complex, often challenging the most skilled of therapists. In this uncertain, conflict-ridden era in which we live, where true connection is often at a premium, substance use and “process addictions” (e.g. to gambling, porn, or food) have escalated to epidemic proportions. It is not uncommon for couple’s therapists to be confronted with the additional challenge of contending with a pernicious “third-party” that lurks within the shadows of distressed relationships: addiction. Although EFCT is the gold standard for helping couples find their way to genuine, loving communion with one another, addictions present very significant obstacles to effectively working with couples that seek our services.
Learning Objectives:

Determine personal biases that may interfere with the therapist’s presence when working with clients on the addictive continuum.
Describe how to tailor the introductory assessment when addiction is present in the couple process.
Describe and identify addiction through the lens of attachment theory.
Describe addiction as an adaptive response to loss, and disconnection.
Describe how addiction organises the relational system.
Describe how to integrate addictive behaviors into the negative interactional cycle.
Describe how to work with shame in stage 2 of EFT with addiction.
Describe how to work with and process emotion in the absence of emotional fluency.
Utilise EFT to break through addictive denial without shaming and confrontation.
Utilise an attachment-based understanding of the impact of addiction on emotional processing and relationships.
Describe how to attend to unprocessed partner anger.
Apply prescriptive interventions to stabilise addictive processes in the couple therapy.
