About EFT Triage/UnBroken Bonds
EFT Triage /UnBroken Bonds is a series of online meetings to support EFT couples therapists-in-training. (Note: if a group is rescheduled we will make it up throughout the year and all groups are recorded so if you miss the group you may still be able to watch the group.) During the year, we will invite other seasoned EFT trainers to present cases with attachment injuries so we may deepen our understanding and application of EFT in these cases.
Requirements:
You need to have completed the EFT Externship and preferably (but not mandatory) have started or completed the EFT core skills process.
There is also an initial commitment of six-months, after which you may cancel at anytime with 30-days notice.
You will also be asked to sign a consent (details below).
Cost:
As mentioned above, this group requires a six-month commitment. We offer two payment options for your convenience:
(1) we can set up monthly payments of $45 for a six-month period; OR,
(2) we can collect a one-time payment of $450 which includes ten consecutive groups, after the first six months you will be billed automatically at the rate of $45 per month.
Billing occurs once every 4 weeks on a Saturday. All billing occurs at the beginning of the month or last week of the prior month for any given group. Thus, you are paying for the groups before they happen. One you enroll, you will be automatically billed monthly until you inform Brittany that you want to terminate your EFFT group attendance. Note: all cancellations require 30 days notice; see more details below.
Payment method: Credit or Debit cards only. We need a card number on file in order to enroll you in auto-bill. Because of the constant changing supervision needs of each clinician, we will automatically bill you and invite you to groups until you let us know that you no longer want to attend these groups.
Cancellation:
This group requires a six-month commitment. After the initial six months, you can cancel, pause, or skip groups without being charged if you let us know 30 days in advance.
Online Access:
Matthew Settle will send you details for accessing live group sessions. If you miss a session, you can obtain a copy by emailing Matthew at Msettlemft@gmail.com.
