Michael Barnett & Jeff Hickey – EFT Masterclass Volume 2: Addiction

EFT Masterclass Volume 2: Addiction
by Michael Barnett & Jeff Hickey
In this second demonstration in our EFT Masterclass series, Michael Barnett and Jeff Hickey help a couple step from the shadow of addiction to heal their relationship.

The biggest source of addiction relapse is relational distress. When addiction enters couples treatment, the focus on sobriety and relapse can be a distraction from core relationship issues. As the already fragile alliance crumbles, the non-addicted partner is often neglected and the disconnection deepens.

Learn to stay squarely focused on relationship dynamics by watching Barnett and Hickey apply core EFT principles and techniques in their work with Mark and Julie. This video will bring to life how EFT can help couples build their emotional fluency skills within a safe yet challenging therapeutic space. From within that space, you can help your clients discover and explore the unspoken emotional and personal issues that culminate in reactivity and destructive patterns in their relational dance.

WHAT THERAPISTS ARE SAYING…
“Clear and insightful, this video captures a co-therapeutic intervention for a couple who has suffered from addictive behaviors, including pain killers and alcohol. See how Attachment Theory helps make sense of the emotional material that is missing in couples, while EFT helps individuals with addictions embrace their biographical pain and share it with their partners, who in turn, learn to co-regulate with their beloved. Useful to academics, practitioners, students or anyone else working with couples. ”
—Carlos Del Rio, PhD, Couples and Family Therapist, Assistant Professor of Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Bellevue University

In Depth
On the heels of a promising session sex therapy session, Mark and Julie meet with Hickey and Barnett. They hope to address the emotional aspects of their relationship, long neglected due to Julie’s history of physical pain, OCD and addiction. Now that she is sober, Mark is finally expressing long-buried feelings of neglect and anger. The couple is now trying to mend and rebuild their frayed and fragile tie by focusing on their respective attachment issues.

Couples like Mark and Julie who lack a template of emotional fluency have difficulty accessing and expressing painful and vulnerable emotions within themselves and between one another. And in the absence of secure attachments and a sense of safety in their relationship, partners will turn to secondary coping strategies such as substance abuse and dependence. Instead of couples “having patterns,” the patterns “have the couples,” and they grow angry, hurt and disconnected.

Barnett and Hickey’s use of the EFT technique of enactment (having couples speak directly to each other) and their view of addiction as an “action tendency” rather than as a symptom, helps them sow the seeds of attachment with Mark and Julie. The couple then begins on their path to re-connection. Watching and learning from these master clinicians will be a boon to your clinical practice with couples facing seemingly insurmountable relationship challenges.
