Meet Jake,

"It’s not easy to reach out for help, especially when feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. Together, we’ll identify what’s getting in the way and move toward self-understanding and connection. I work with adults navigating anxiety, low mood, sexuality, identity, relationship issues, and life transitions, with a neurodivergent-affirming lens."

You know EFT. So why does it still sometimes feel so hard to do EFT?

You understand the model.
You’ve learned the theory.
You know the tasks and interventions.
And yet, in the room, you sometimes find yourself:

• Worrying about whether you’re “doing EFT correctly”
• Second-guessing yourself in after sessions
• Becoming anxious when a client’s emotions intensify
• Moving too quickly to soothe or regulate
• Losing your empathic flow
• Focusing on getting to resolution rather than trusting the process

If this sounds familiar, the next step in your EFT development may not be learning more EFT.

It may be exploring what happens inside you as the therapist.

Unfolding Therapist Blocks is a 10-week experiential small-group training designed specifically for EFT therapists who want to identify and work with the emotional obstacles that may be getting in the way of greater confidence and fluidity in their practice.

Led by Dr. Robert Elliott and Dr. Sarah Thompson, participants will use principles and methods from Emotion-Focused Therapy and Emotion-Focused Group Therapy to explore their own therapist blocks, deepen their capacity to remain present with intense emotion, and develop individualized next steps for continued growth.

👥 Limited to 8 participants
📅 Wednesdays, January 6–March 10, 2027
⏰ 9–11am Pacific | 12–2pm Eastern | 6–8pm Central European
💰 $1600 USD

Limited sliding-scale spaces are available for participants from eligible Upper-Middle and Lower-Middle Income countries.
If you recognize yourself in these therapist blocks, we invite you to explore the training.

OCD doesn’t just affect individuals - it can show up in relationships in ways that feel confusing, overwhelming, and deeply personal.

“What if I don’t love them enough?”
“What if something is wrong?”

These thoughts can feel real, urgent, and hard to ignore.

But in many cases, this isn’t about the relationship itself - it’s about how OCD creates doubt and pulls people into cycles of reassurance and uncertainty.

With understanding and the right support, couples can learn to navigate these patterns and stay connected.

Meet Bea Gancedo, a registered psychotherapist at Transforming Emotions.

Hi, I'm Bea - I work with clients facing life transitions that can feel overwhelming – like starting over in a new country, adjusting to a different culture, or navigating perimenopause or menopause. If this resonates on a personal level, I’m here to support you in finding clarity, balance, and resilience during these changes. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish.
