Calming Moody Storms - Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) with Dr. Allison Chase

Today's episode is all about giving you an incredibly practical tool for navigating emotion-focused conversations anywhere and with anyone. To do that, we've invited Dr. Allison Chase to walk us through Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT for short). Mostly, we will focus on Emotion Coaching - a skill that creates shortcuts between two very different parts of the brain. The results are powerful and can help you and your loved one feel connected and empowered rather than confused and upset. It's important to note that Dr. Chase discusses EFFT skills in the context of a caregiver's relationship with someone battling an eating disorder, but you can take EFFT skills into any relationship that gets sidetracked by intense emotional outbursts - be they at work, home, or out in the world.  Resources: Dr. LaFrance's book: What to Say to Kids When Nothing Seems to Work: A Practical Guide for Parents and Caregivers Free Self-guided EFFT Learning Series  EFFT Basics: Video Mental Note Podcast Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center Eating Recovery Center Navigating the Holiday Season with Resilience & Community Support Group Free Evaluation with a Trained Therapist:  (877) 850-7199
