“Workouts for Stepping into Emotionally Focused Therapy: Exercises to Strengthen Your Practice is the guide for clinicians practicing EFT. Brubacher is a gifted writer who beautifully details the most relevant micro and macro skills while prioritizing culture and context. Each workout broadens and builds, bringing EFT to life in the reader’s own words. A remarkably unique resource for every EFT therapist!”

"In this excellent new book, Brubacher provides Micro-Skill Workouts for mastering key skills in EFT. The text is clear, well-organized, accessible, and highly effective. Very highly recommended for both EFT trainees and certified therapists who wish to take their EFCT and EFIT skills to a new level!”

"In Workouts for Stepping into EFT, Lorrie Brubacher helps therapists, from apprentices to the most experienced, learn all the nuances of applying EFT to both individual and couple therapy. With her gentle guidance, the reader is invited to focus on the core micro and macro interventions of EFT. As they further develop their understanding of each intervention’s purpose, they can practice applying it and draw inspiration from Emily - a fictive therapist - to help them expand their repertoire, discover and solidify their strengths, and integrate the model conceptually and experientially - so they can find their own voice as EFT therapists. This book is a must-have for anyone wanting to master the art of EFT.”
