Attention all EFT Therapists!📣 Our next Brunch and Learn is coming up and here is an overview of the event⬇️

Have you found yourself caught off guard by the political and cultural division within the community? Are clients able to discuss their feelings of anger or disgust with you in session? Are you able to access your inner core self wisdom in steering difficult conversations?

The purpose of this training is to offer therapists a space to slow down, turn inward, and attune to their bodily felt sense in response to challenging conversations. This is an opportunity for self-exploration - A chance to reflect on if, when and how to engage in difficult conversation from an attuned and grounded place.

What happens after the live session is where the real learning begins.

Join us Monday September 15th after the San Diego Externship for After the Live — a raw, honest, and deeply insightful breakdown of real EFT in action. Dr. Feion Villodas and Jennine Estes, LMFT will debrief Dr. Lisa Palmer-Olsen and Dr. Sam Jinich’s live session from the day’s Externship. They’ll get to the heart of the most pivotal moments of the live sessions — and the missteps too.

🔍 Why that intervention in that moment?
🤯 What wasn’t said — and what they wish they’d done differently?
🙋‍♀️ And yes, you get to ask questions.

This event is equal parts highlights reel and behind-the-scenes unpacking of real, complex EFT work — the kind you can actually use on Monday morning.
Whether you joined the externship or you’re just coming for the debrief, After the Live is open to all EFT-interested clinicians. Come learn. Come laugh. Come be part of this rare look inside the actual clinical process.
