Review
As a certified EFT therapist/supervisor, I found this workbook very informative and useful, with numerous examples of client scenarios and clinical interventions. The exercise questions are both pertinent and stimulating. This workbook can serve as supplementary material for small group discussions, role-play practice, and homework assignments when training EFT therapists. - Ting Lui in Journal of Couple and Relationship Therapy, Vol. 5, No.4.

Customer Reviews

Over the top workbook
Be prepared to spend tons of time reading, answering multiple choice questions, hunting down answers in the back of this clumsy oversized book. It is too much of a pretty good thing. Needs reworking and a good editor to trim it down and make it more user friendly. It has more words in it than the book Becoming an Emotionally Focued Couple Therapist and duplicates lots that is in that book. They need to redo this and its companion as a set. Right now it is only the covers that go together.

Clarifying the EFT Interventions
For me, this book supplied the logical missing piece after finishing the EFT Externship and beginning the supervision process. The book enabled me to reinforce on my own and at my own pace the steps, stages and interventions that I learned in the group context. Using this valuable tool, I was able to slow down and clarify the parts of the model which had been unclesr to me previously. The chapter on Impasses in EFT was an especially nice bonus. This book was the most valuable EFT book I have used thus far. Well worth the price. Paula Zerfoss, LCSW

Excellent Book!
This book was required for my graduate level psychology class. It was well written and full of useful information. I intend to keep it as a reference book for my practice.
