EFT Supervision

EFT supervision is a journey of slow transformation in which YOU, as the therapist, are at the centre.

It is extremely important that you do not feel alone in practising a model which, although wonderful and powerful, is also very demanding because it requires a great deal of human and emotional energy. Our focus, therefore, will not be, as you may have seen in other kinds of supervision, on the “case” in itself, but on the process and on your way of being in the session. The possibilities to grow, expand, and evolve your EFT “doing” and “being” as a therapist will be endless!

Therapists who know themselves well — including their strengths, conflicts, and inner issues that are activated in their countertransference — will be more able to apply EFT effectively. In order to help clients recognise and process their emotions and attachment needs, clinicians must be able to recognise and process their own emotions and attachment needs.

What to expect from EFT supervision

The therapist’s self and emotional regulation

We will focus on your therapist self and on how you regulate your own emotions in the room. I will help you shape and refine EFT interventions in your day‑to‑day practice, so that they become part of you and not just something you “know” in theory. Together we will also cultivate empathy toward those clients you find more challenging, and learn how to elicit specific attachment responses in them.

Watching your recorded sessions

The most effective way to see what you are already doing well and where you can grow is to watch a short segment of one of your sessions together. I know your anxiety may already be rising at the idea! We all fear being judged. Remember, though, that I am on your side: I will highlight your successes and strengths, and I will welcome your difficulties so we can use them as material for your growth.

Bringing theory to life

To anchor your theoretical knowledge, I will offer you extra reading and resources you can go back to in specific situations. In this way, key concepts become more vivid and easier to apply in your clinical work, rather than remaining abstract ideas.

Setting and reviewing your goals

In supervision, you don’t just need to learn new things; you also need to understand whether you are actually learning them. We will keep track of how close you are to your goals and of the progress you are making over time. Step by step, I will provide you with reference points tailored to your current level, a kind of map for learning the EFT model. With this clear and structured approach, you will always know which aspects you want to refine in your learning journey.

Τestimonials

During my supervision sessions with Eleni, I felt guided and supported. She makes me feel welcomed and safe, which allows me to discuss the doubts and uncertainties I have during couples therapy. Eleni has the ability to immediately identify strengths, which is also helpful to me because it allows me to better recognize the resources I can rely on when I face difficult moments during sessions. She integrates her analysis of the ongoing therapeutic process with theoretical frameworks, which helps me identify aspects that I can then explore further on my own. The use of role-play, though very challenging for me,is helpful in identifying the emotional aspects that affect me and sometimes hold me back, which emerge from the recordings I bring to supervision. This exercise offers me a valuable form of modeling, thanks to which I can identify effective interventions, perhaps alternatives to my own, to attune myself to patients, and this facilitates the progress of the therapeutic process. I find that supervision sessions with Eleni are helping me grow as an EFT therapist and enhance the effectiveness of the model in my therapeutic practice, and for this I am very grateful to her.

Supervision has been truly very helpful for my clinical growth. It has helped me understand how important it is to work with session recordings: it makes everything more concrete and allows me to receive clear guidance on where to improve, how to intervene, and how to better navigate my work with each couple, even based on their exact words. One aspect that has had a significant impact on me concerns the pace of therapeutic work. I’ve realized how important it is not to move too quickly, but to stay with what emerges, helping the person feel truly understood, accompanied, and validated in their emotional experience. Our supervision is a great help to me and supports me in growing with greater awareness and precision in my clinical work.

Supervision has been a wonderful experience; I felt welcomed, supported, understood, and non-judged. I found it essential to start by gaining insight into myself and my attachment dynamics to see how these are triggered with that particular client. During the session, it was crucial to interpret the client’s relational positions, but above all, my own, and to explore emotions by working on the therapist’s self. It is now clearer to me that the difficulty I encountered in response to some of the client’s statements, her withdrawn stance and her fear in the face of any request for connection, triggers my own fear of disappointing others’ expectations. I can now try to meet the client where she is and explore her need for protection. I left the supervision session with an understanding and clarity about what is standing in the way of both the client and me at this moment, about what I need to pay attention to regarding my reactive emotions, and how to attune myself more fully. All of this with a great sense of serenity and acceptance.

And I feel the same way too, because one of the nominees is my supervisor: a truly wonderful person – a safe haven, a source of energy and warmth. She knows how to support me in times of uncertainty and guide me on this EFT journey with professionalism, love and infinite patience. With her, you really feel seen, welcomed and never judged, and she always manages to bring clarity even when everything seems confusing. She is not just a professional guide, but a precious human presence, capable of leaving something good behind every time. It is a real privilege to be able to grow alongside her, and I feel deeply grateful to have met her on this journey and to be part of this wonderful EFT family with all of you.
