Engaging with self-of-the-therapist (SOT) issues is an essential part of every therapist’s journey. This process is especially relevant when working experientially with our clients using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Unlike other therapy models, EFT implores us to use ourselves in the room – our own responses, somatic experiences, empathy, etc. – to facilitate revision for our clients. As we become our client’s temporary attachment figures and engage with our own limbic systems, many of us face our own attachment fears and longings. In this community spotlight, Emily will share about what the research says about the common challenges we face as we become EFT therapists, as well as create a space to explore our own SOT issues when working with clients.
