Emotion Efficacy Therapy Group

4 week program

Mullumbimby Psychology is running an Emotion Efficacy Therapy Group for adults of all ages who would like to learn about and gain experience in skills that enable you to be more powerful in how you respond to your emotions.

The Group aims to teach skills required for learning to respond to your emotions, including:

• Watching your emotions, rather than being overwhelmed or controlled by them.
• Experiencing difficult emotions instead of feeling like you have to run away from them.
• Recognising the “moment of choice”.
• Identifying your core values—how you want to show up, even when you’re emotionally triggered and upset.
• Acting on your values in the moment of choice.
• Practising new strategies to dial down your emotions, even when they are very intense.
