Topic: Wednesday Podcasts: Individuality and Differentiation in EFT process
Presenter: Dr. Aidā Haghi, Certified EFT Therapist and Supervisor in Training
In this session, Dr. Haghi spoke about how we can stay as a differential individual with our unique sense of self while being in emotional contact with others. This requires a balance between autocracy and intimacy and allows individuals to express their needs and feelings without breaking their bonds with their partners or jeopardizing their intimacy. Another concept discussed was emotional regulation that plays an important role in differentiation. EFT helps individuals to regulate their emotions in a way that allows them to have healthy interactions with others. Identifying and processing emotions as opposed to un-reflected and impulsive reactions is also a necessary component of emotional regulation capacity. The content presented in this session was rich and empirically supported. The session ended with a question and answer section with Dr. Haghi.
