Some of the most experienced therapists struggle to de-escalate couples when conflict erupts in session. Grounded in evidence-based Emotionally Focused Therapy, this training will support therapists in gaining the tools to decrease acute conflict in sessions and amplify connection.
There are three main reasons couples engage in conflict: unprocessed trauma, attachment injuries, and a negative cycle — yet even with this knowledge, many therapists find themselves getting lost in the cycle, feeling confused, anxious, and disoriented in the work. This training will support you in labeling the root causes of conflict and gaining practical tools to de-escalate active conflict in couples therapy sessions.
