2025 Nov. | EFIT for Depression
Depression disrupts a person’s ability to engage with themselves and others, often leaving them disconnected and emotionally stuck. This one-day training examines how Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) helps clients facing mood-related challenges, particularly depression. Using EFIT’s attachment-based model, you’ll learn to identify emotional injuries, support new emotional experiences, and foster shifts toward connection and vitality.
This training is designed to enhance your therapeutic effectiveness, expand your EFIT skill set, and support your professional development. Completion counts toward EFIT certification with ICEEFT.
