Overview:
Working with attachment injuries demands precision, pacing, and emotional presence. Through longitudinal case examples, this workshop shows how EFT can help couples move from escalation and protest to renewed trust following infidelity. Participants will observe how therapists contain high reactivity, guide the injuring partner toward remorse and responsiveness, and foster moments of bonding repair.
Learning outcomes:
- Track the negative cycle in attachment injury presentations
- Support injured and injuring partners in accessing core emotional experience
- Facilitate bonding events that restore trust and connection
