Dr. West’s EET training offers clinicians a powerful, clear protocol for helping clients navigate difficult emotions.
I loved this course! Dr. West's EET training teaches clinicians a brief, powerful and clear protocol for helping clients navigate difficult emotion states in order to support effective, value-driven life choices. Dr. West is an exceptionally skilled and delightful teacher, engaging participants in a warm, curious and playful way. She combines didactics with experiential practice so that I could quickly integrate the EET interventions and use them immediately in my practice. My clients have appreciated having this tight package of tools, and I would highly recommend this training for clinicians of any theoretical approach!

Dr. Aprilia West’s EET training is engaging and accessible, blending CBT skills with experiential exercises effectively.
Dr. Aprilia West is a very engaging, skillful and dynamic trainer. I primarily work from a psychodynamic/attachment lens but was interested in adding some CBT skills to my repertoire. Throughout the training Dr. West incorporated a balance of didactic-style teaching and experiential exercises—both as a larger group and in dyads— which helped me stay present, consolidate what I was learning, and gave me a chance to apply the new knowledge immediately. She also made great use of clinical and personal examples to facilitate the learning. Even with my limited CBT experience I found this training to be relevant, accessible and applicable to my clinical work, and have been able to use EET skills successfully with clients in my private practice! I also purchased the EET book and have found it to be an essential reference when I've wanted to use Emotion Efficacy interventions with clients in session. I would highly recommend Dr. West’s EET training to anyone working with clients who struggle with low emotion efficacy.

Dr. Aprilia West’s EET training offers coaches a clear, powerful system to enhance clients' emotional efficacy.
If you are a coach whose clients would be interested in developing more emotion efficacy, I strongly recommend taking Dr. Aprilia West’s Emotion Efficacy Therapy (EET) training. EET is extremely unique in how clear and complete a system it is. The structure is understandable and immediately useful for clients, while session flow and experiential process is a powerful toolbox for coaches. On top of her gift for creating systems, Dr. West is adept at both teaching the protocol and demonstrating its functional and flexible nature in real plays. Finally, while there are other trainings available to coaches that are led by psychologists, few are also versed in coaching. That Dr. West does both therapy and coaching--and can really speak to coaching--makes her EET training a rare and valuable opportunity for coaches who want to help their clients develop a more powerful relationship with their emotions.

Dr. West’s training was one of the most valuable, making EET a staple in my practice with immediate results!
Dr. West’s training was by far one of the most valuable trainings I've ever attended. She has a natural talent for pairing the strong scientific underpinnings of the EET protocol with ample experiential exercises to quickly develop competency. She also provided a strong rationale for each element of EET and offered opportunities to learn from her and practice new skills in a supportive way. She provided helpful constructive feedback and thoughtfully checked in throughout the training to ensure everyone understood the material (as we had varying levels of experience). Her warmth and expertise made it easy to ask questions and her responses always thoughtfully cut to the crux of the issue. I readily used EET with confidence with clients the following week! EET has become a staple in my practice.
