This workshop delves into the transformative power of relentless empathy in forging and sustaining strong therapeutic alliances with challenging or resistant clients, particularly within the framework of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Participants will be invited to explore their own relational cycles to enhance their ability to empathically attune to the dynamics they navigate with clients. Through reflective practices and experiential exercises, therapists will cultivate a deeper understanding of attachment patterns, enabling greater authenticity and emotional presence in their EFT work. Join us to discover how relentless empathy can become a powerful tool for fostering healing and connection in the therapeutic process.
