An Online Program for Practitioners who are ready to expand their EFT skills, grow their practice, and impact lives.
It's Time for Growth
You love being a couples therapist and you know that Emotionally Focused Therapy can transform a couple from distressed and miserable to in- love and happy. However, there are sessions that are so disheartening, you just want to throw in the towel. These painful moments, where you are filled with self-doubt and disillusionment, are points on a trajectory and not the undisputed final chapter in a tragic story. Your couples can overcome whatever historical and present day challenges they are facing and you can help guide them. We will show you how.
What if you could feel confident in EFT and change lives.
You've completed every EFT Training and devoured every resource. You felt like you were understanding the EFT map, connecting the dots between theory and practice, and you were feeling refreshed in your practice.
Then… Your next new couple had signs of trauma. De-escalation never seemed to stabilize. One might struggle with alcohol dependency. The other feels ambivalent about the relationship. Your clarity and enthusiasm started to wane. Then, your own emotion came alive and you didn’t know what to do with it. You reacted badly, which made you feel like a fraud. How can I help my couples if I am still emotionally reactive? Your professional fatigue and isolation crept back and, in your quiet moments, you found yourself wondering if you really have what it takes to be an EFT therapist.
Then you remember something ... the only thing that has ever been healing in your whole entire life was feeling VULNERABLE and LOVED in the exact same moment.
Breathe & Imagine ...
Intuitively helping couples reconnect, stopping the constant battles, and deepening their love.
Trusting that you can stay emotionally balanced in the face of a couple's distress.
Knowing exactly what to do when you are in the early stages of couples therapy.
You CAN be a thriving EFT therapist
You CAN feel confident, competent, and connected to yourself and your EFT colleagues while learning and growing in EFT. We support, teach, and guide you. Through experiential and didactic lessons, you will absorb and integrate the model, uncover blindspots, and discover how to get traction during impasses.
Introducing
The EFT Café
An Online Program where you learn how to be a better and more confident EFT Therapist.
"Magic! I love Kathryn's words, the way she says things that make so much sense, and I love how Jennifer repeats and clarifies, making it all even more likely that it will settle into my brain (and often my heart), in a place where I can retrieve it." ~ Karen Michelson LPC
Meet Jen & Kathryn
Founders of the EFT Café
Kathryn Rheem, Ed.D, LMFT, has been an ICEEFT Certified Trainer for over 11 years and trains Trainers in EFT. She teaches EFT internationally and has published numerous articles/chapters on various aspects of the model, including the soon to be released Becoming an Emotionally Focused Couple Therapist: The Workbook 2nd Edition. She directs the Washington Baltimore Center for EFT, co-created with Sue Johnson Strong Bonds, Strong Couples, a post-combat deployment program for service members and their partners, and completed the first analysis of the Withdrawer Re-engagement Change Event for her dissertation.
Jennifer Olden, LMFT, ICEEFT Certified Supervisor, is the visionary behind Inside the EFT Café and usually knows the needs of our Insiders instinctively. She asks the right questions to bring EFT to life! She’s an EFT Supervisor extraordinaire, co-created the EFT Lab – an award winning online series, co-founded the Sacramento-Davis EFT Center, teaches EFT classes throughout North America and in Europe, and maintains a private practice.
Together, these two experts bring EFT to life with their raw, real, and authentic interactions about the application of the model, learning the model, and helping you integrate the model.
Helping you grow your capacity to do EFT
"Seeing 'the master' at work, having her input about her own work with explanations - as well as suggestions for improvement. Exploring the questions posed by Jen to get at the nuance. The discussion of questions helped me understand how EFT can be most effectively, and flexibly, applied in real time. Yes. It brings so much to life. It helps to bring things into accord with the theory - and with sometimes more rigidly held ideas (on my part) of how EFT should be done." ~ Pat Layman, PhD
"I love the questions that were asked by Jen during the filming of the couple because they often reflected my own questions. I think this will give other therapists more confidence knowing that not everybody feels comfortable with EFT for quite a while! And the steps start coming together and they make sense after watching the café.~ Deb Schnack, LMFT
""IT FINALLY SUNK IN! I've stopped imagining that if my couples were only with a more experienced EFT therapist, they would surely have gotten to their bonding event by now! Watching Kathryn so gently, calmly and relentlessly wade in and out of the pool gave me more courage to do this with my couples. I found I can lean in to their discomfort with them, be more empathic than I knew was possible, stay in the fear or hurt or pain and in those spaces, just by being there with them, something magical has started to happen in my sessions." ~ Victoria Holroyd, LPC, LMHC, PhD
