The Road to Certification for Emotionally Focused Therapy

2020 marked the start of my journey to become certified in emotionally focused therapy. The requirements for certification are set by ICEEFT, the International Centre for Excellence in Emotionally Focused Therapy. Training in EFT starts with a 30 hour training held over 4 days called externship, and then progresses to a training of about 44 hours over several months called Core Skills. In 2020, I chose to also be trained in EFT for individuals and EFT for families, both 4 day trainings. I also began training in advanced special topics such as EFT and addictive processes.

Certified Clinical Telemental Health Professional

Prior to COVID-19, only 5% of therapists offered therapy via video. Now, almost all therapists offer this. Providing therapy by video has its own unique legal, ethical, technological, and clinical challenges. My advanced training covered all of these critical topics and more to prepare me to go virtual. By choosing to work with me via video, you are choosing a provider who is well versed and well trained to go virtual.

“My wife and I have enjoyed the time we’ve spent with Ronda. She has helped improve our communication and be aware of our negative interaction cycles of blame and withdrawal. My wife and I feel much more emotionally connected and grateful for Ronda’s help.”
