DESCRIPTION:

In her recent book, Attachment Theory in Practice (c. 2019), Dr. Sue Johnson notes two key implications of attachment science for clinical practice.  That is, “harnessing the power of emotion within the client is the most potent way to promote change” and “change is inherently interpersonal, sculpted by the emotional messages that occur in dialogue with another” (Johnson, 2019, p. 25).  Recognizing that the relationship can be a key resource in healing trauma (when one or both partners is struggling with the impacts of trauma), this training will focus on how to work relationally with couples to heal the potentially pervasive and deleterious impacts of personal trauma.  Relationship trauma (i.e., attachment injuries/betrayals of trust) and how to address such injuries with the Attachment Injury Resolution Model (AIRM) also will be reviewed. 

With a clear roadmap and on-target interventions, EFT is an empirically validated treatment approach that meets the gold standard set out by bodies such as the American Psychological Association (APA) and has been shown to be effective in assisting couples in both addressing trauma and improving their relationship functioning.  In this training, participants will gain practitioner relevant insight into assessment, case conceptualization and treatment planning and the interventions that are used to transform couples both personally and relationally, quieting the echoes of trauma, and increasing resilience to future stress and/or trauma.

Attendees will:

  • be introduced to a brief overview of the EFT model

  • learn how to focus assessment, case conceptualization and treatment planning in couple therapy when one or both partners is struggling with the echoes of trauma

  • learn how to work with emotion with a focus on the intervention central to EFT - the Tango - with attention to pacing (both within and between sessions) and building on momentum throughout the process of therapy

  • be guided through the three-stage treatment process, with a focus on the three key change events (stabilization/de-escalation, withdrawer engagement and pursuer softening) and with the goal of identifying key markers within the roadmap

Dr. Leanne Campbell is co-director of the Vancouver Island Centre for EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) and Campbell & Fairweather Psychology Group and is an Honorary Research Associate of Vancouver Island University.  Trained by Dr. Sue Johnson in the early 1990s, she has continued to work in the EFT model since that time, and has provided psychotherapy services to hundreds of individuals, couples, and families over the past about three decades.  By request, Dr. Campbell also provides personalized results-driven ‘intensives’ (i.e., ‘boot camps’) for couples motivated to improve their relationship and/or address ‘attachment injuries’ related to infidelity, other significant life events and/or transitions (e.g., loss or trauma). 

Known for her expertise in trauma, Dr. Campbell has provided hundreds of psychological assessment reports for forensic/legal and personal injury matters being considered before various levels of Court.   She also is regularly called upon to provide expert opinion, as well as psychological evaluations for various insurance companies and bodies involved in adjudicating personal injury and other trauma-based claims. In addition to maintaining a full-time private practice, with a primary focus in the areas of relationship strain, trauma, grief and loss, Dr. Campbell currently co-manages a multi-site practice comprised of twenty-five clinicians and is a site co-ordinator for an Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) outcome study. 

An active ICEEFT Certified Trainer, Leanne trains professionals around the globe and is involved in the development of various materials including DVDs, on-line educational/training programs, books, workbooks, and articles.  Most recently, she co-authored the first basic EFIT (Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy) text with Dr. Sue Johnson, A Primer for Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT): Cultivating Fitness and Growth in Every Client (Routledge, 2021), as well as a workbook for therapists training in EFT (see Furrow et al., Routledge, 2022).
