Breaking Up but Still Connecting: An EFT Approach to Healthier Breakups

Not all couples who come to therapy want to save or fix their relationships. More importantly, breakups do not have to be traumatizing or detrimental; it also does not have to become the biggest failure in life. As couple therapists, we need to be able to help these couples break up with compassion, appreciation, dignity, clarity, and self-worth as they move through this painful and scary process.

This workshop will focus on two challenging issues in couple therapy: (1) how to help couples who are indecisive or with different goals whereas one wants to end and the other wants to save the relationship; (2) how to help couples go through three stages of EFT to end the relationship while maintaining some levels of connection. Methods of presentation will include didactic teaching, experiential exercise, video demonstration and discussion.’
