2026-03-13 12:00 90 TWC-031326 The First Five EFCT Sessions The First Five EFCT Sessions: Laying the Groundwork for Transformative Change Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFCT), developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, is a powerful, evidence-based approach that helps couples move from distress to connection. Research shows that 70–75% of couples experience recovery, and approximately 90% report significant improvement in their relationship. In this practical and engaging workshop, participants will explore how to skillfully navigate the first five sessions of EFCT. While Dr. Johnson refers to these early sessions as the “assessment phase,” this period is far more than information gathering—it is foundational. The first five sessions set the emotional tone, therapeutic alliance, and strategic direction for the work to come. Through focused teaching, practical handouts, and video demonstrations, participants will learn how to build safety, attune to attachment dynamics, and begin the process of cycle de-escalation. Learning Objectives: By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to: 1. Implement key skills for conducting the first five EFCT sessions with clarity and purpose 2. Assess and connect each partner’s attachment history and its influence on their relational dynamics 3. Identify the couple’s negative interaction cycle 4. Facilitate appropriate enactments that deepen emotional engagement during the early sessions Dr. Herman Chow $ 52.50
