The “Two-day Foundation Training of Emotion-Focused (Individual) Therapy for Professionals” workshop organised by Institute of Mental Health of Castle Peak Hospital was successfully held on 17 & 18 January 2025, with a total of 99 mental health care professionals joined. We were honoured to invite Mrs. Selina Leung, Registered Counselling Psychologist of the Hong Kong Psychological Society (HKPS), Certified Emotion-Focused Therapist and Approved Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) trainer by the International Society for Emotion Focused Therapy (isEFT), as well as Founder of the Institute of Emotion-Focused Therapy (Asia), to be our speaker.

In the workshop, Mrs. Selina Leung introduced the basic knowledge of both EFT theory and intervention tasks in working with individuals. Through practice session and case sharing, participants were enhanced with the ability to empathically attune to the client’s emotional processing.
