The training offered by the Washington Baltimore Center for EFT (Externship in
EFT, Core Skills in EFT, Advanced Externship, Group Supervision, and Individual
Supervision) can be applied to the requirements toward becoming a
Certified EFT Therapist by the International Center for
Excellence in EFT directed by Susan Johnson.
The following are requirements
posted by the Center for EFT for becoming a Registered or
Certified EFT Therapist.
See http://www.eft.ca/training2.htm
Clinical Training Program to be completed for
Registration.
1. Clinical Externship on EFT 30-35 hours over 4 to 5 days) or graduate
course in Couples Therapy with extensive focus on EFT/EFFT.
2. Advanced externship in EFT (12 hours over 2 days). Each participant must present a video tape of a therapy session to the group. If this externship
is unavailable in a particular area it may be replaced by eight hours of
individual consultation/training with a registered EFT/EFFT therapist or
Core Skills workshops presented by the Center for EFT staff in North American
cities. This supervision may be long distance with the Center for EFT
Clinicians using video and audio tapes.
3. Clinical Consultation/Training by Certified EFT/EFFT therapist - 32
hours. This may take place in a group setting where participants offer two page transcripts of therapy for the group and the consultant (who may be
providing feedback on sessions long distance) to discuss. However at least
one quarter of these hours must be individual consultation (8 hours). In the
case of long distance consultation contact, the trainee will submit tapes of
therapy or transcripts for the consultant to comment on and discuss.
Therapists at the Center for EFT and OCFI offer this service as do the
supervisors listed in the EFT directory. A signed release is required
from clients and therapists before this consultation process. The release
form can be obtained from ocfi@magma.ca.
4. Case review. A detailed case presentation reviewed by a Registered EFT therapist at the Center for EFT. This includes case conceptualizations, a
transcript of either videotape or audiotape of 20 minutes from an early
session and two key segments of two Stage II EFT sessions.
For registered AAMFT Clinical Members the Advanced Externship may also be replaced by a second supplementary case presentation. This will include a
case conceptualization including a description of the difficulties presented
by the case and two transcripts of key change events.
Having completed the requirements outlined above the clinician may apply to the Institute for Clinical Membership/Registration. Upon acceptance as a
Clinical Member of the Center one may represent him/herself as a Registered
EFT Therapist. This registration must be updated every three years by
submitting a Registration Renewal Form to the International Center for
Excellence in EFT. This form
requests information such as the number of cases seen and a description of
ongoing educational activities, conferences attended, etc.
The fee for Case Review is $400 or Student Rate of $200 (Canadian funds). The fee for Registration is $250 (Canadian funds) payable to OCFI Inc.
The fee for renewal every three years is $100.
