Emotionally Focused Therapy Training
EFT Supervisor & Trainer
What is Emotionally Focused Therapy?
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), is a form of therapy that strives to help individuals identify the underlying emotions that guide their relationships. The EFT approach was first developed by Susan Johnson and Les Greenberg in the 1980s, and it continues to become one of the most popular and effective ways to improve relationships.
The Center offers EFT supervision and training to therapy professionals in-person led by Clinical Director, Supervisor and Trainer, George Faller.
EFT SEX TRAINING
2025 Training Dates:
April 24 and 25
Location: First Presbyterian Church of Greenwich: 1 West Putnam Avenue, Greenwich, CT 06830.
This training will take place in the Session Room on the 3rd floor of the church.
There is not parking at the church, but along the street and in a public lot a block or two north of the church (heading towards Greenwich Hospital).
Sex often triggers what is best and worst in relationships. Swinging from the highs of passion to the lows of rejection, sex offers us all plenty to engage with and talk about in session. Yet, most therapists are not taught how to facilitate these intimate conversations and harness the power of sexual connection to help secure the couples’ attachment.
Let’s stop avoiding sexual conversations and instead develop the confidence to lean into them. George’s goal is to help couple therapists understand how the emotional and sexual attachment cycles are integrated, help therapists become comfortable with talking about sex, learn a thorough sexual assessment, and work through blocks in the sexual cycle.
Using role-plays and videos George will demonstrate effective sexual interventions and will design breakout sessions for you to practice talking comfortably about explicit details so the sexual cycle can be discussed in session. Come join us for this in-person training to harness the power of sexuality to help clients experience the power of great sex.

· What is Great Sex?
· Anatomy and Physiology
· Integrate the Sexual and Emotional Cycles in Practice
· Sexual Assessment

“Who knew that four days could be so transformative?
Under the masterful direction of George Faller, I was introduced to EFT,
a powerful model that gets to “the heart” of the struggles many marriages face.
EFT offers a way forward as it seeks to repair damaged ways of relating and unhelpful patterns of interacting.
What is most exciting is that EFT offers real help, hope and healing for couples willing to engage in the process.
It’s a tool I’m delighted to add to my tool box ”
