Testimonials:

The EFT Level 1 training seminar was a unique experience for me, a milestone in my personal and professional career. On a professional level in this training I found the theoretical and technical I needed to enrich my therapeutic role. The facilitators of the seminar were special, distinguished therapists but also warm people who created the safe environment that helped to assimilate the new knowledge theoretically and experientially. The organization of the seminar, the rich educational material, the combination of theoretical and experiential modules, are well structured and allow for an in-depth understanding of the therapeutic techniques and their application. I would definitely recommend participation in this training to anyone who feels ready to develop their psychotherapeutic skills but most importantly feels ready to change their attitude towards life.

The Emotion Focused Therapy - Level I training has been one of the best training experiences I have had in recent years. With great care and in a safe environment, Dr. Robert Elliott and Agathi Lakioti, Ph.d., trained us in an approach that enriched our skills as psychotherapists. Most importantly, they supported and empowered us to try out for ourselves the new things that we learned by approaching and exploring emotion through our own personal stories.

It was a very rewarding and intense experience. The techniques we learned were clear and applicable which provided great stability and security, while at the same time it clicked with all the therapeutic approaches that all participants had been trained in. Robert Elliot and Agathi Lakioti and the other facilitators were an excellent team of trainers with directness and very good support in the working groups. The experiential exercises were very powerful for all roles and combined both the cognitive and emotional elements. I would highly recommend this training! Thank you for this experience!

Dimitra Tagara

Rich and powerful experience - EFT is an excellent tool for professional use and personal development. Mr. Elliot, in addition to being a bottomless source of knowledge and skills, was also a source of inspiration. It was a great honor and pleasure to be able to train under his guidance.

Alexandros Herling

The training was very intense and certainly of great experiential value. I think emotion is somewhat neglected in therapeutic practice and I am glad to have been exposed to so many new dimensions of emotion. I gained a lot on both a personal and professional level. The first seminar made me want to continue with subsequent trainings. I think that the set up in terms of organization was excellent as well as the attitude of the people who took care of the seminar.

Philippos

The experience was very powerful, very different from my previous relationship with emotion and its "unfolding". The instructors were experienced but approachable and direct.

Thanks for everything, see you at the next level!

This training was one of the most interesting, helpful and inspiring trainings I have ever attended. I learnt a lot about working with emotions and about the theory and therapeutic practice of EFT and I had the chance to practice in a safe and friendly environment. The trainer and the facilitators offered their great knowledge and experience in a very warm and encouraging way. I feel even more excited about EFT and I am looking forward to learn more and to use it in my therapeutic practice.

Robert was very warm, approachable and explanatory.He did not have the expert's style that often creates a distance between the trainer and the trainees, but was instead present and willing to impart as much knowledge as he could. The good fortune to see Robert in the role of a therapist in a live demonstration is a unique experience.

Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart for the excellent organization, for providing a wonderful, very rich experience that generated essential knowledge and the human contact that gave this four-day event the most beautiful, warm colors. I am looking forward to level 2.

T.G.

Thank you very much for the organisation, quality and wealth of knowledge you have given us.

It was a transformative experience, where we had a hands-on experience of how powerful EFT can be. I highly recommend it to all therapists!

Thank you for everything, the organization, the practical information, the examples that made it alive, the notes and of course the love and care you shared with use on all aspects of the seminar!

EFT and the four-day training was a great revelation for me. Analysing emotions from a new perspective, new techniques and strengthening previous skills in a four-day session was a really positive experience. The trainers were an inspiration in themselves, since their belief and love of the approach was infectious. I would highly recommend both the approach and this training to anyone who believes that emotions and their expression can change the world!
