Over the last two decades, our understanding of attachment science has greatly expanded. As EFT continues to evolve, the core attachment principles that transformed couples therapy are now reshaping how we work with both families and individuals, leading to the introduction of EFFT and EFIT.⁠

We’re honoured to host Gail Palmer and Leanne Campbell at the EFT World Summit 2027 for a special plenary session exploring what binds these modalities together, and where the model is leading us next. ⁠

Emotional shifts don't always translate into embodied intimacy on their own.⁠

Silvina Irwin and Lisa Blum demonstrate how touch-based interventions, used safely and selectively, can deepen partners' experiences of responsiveness and co-regulation — using touch not as technique, but as a⁠
gateway to accessibility and connection.⁠

Secure love requires more than being open — it requires being able to respond.⁠

Not every client can access emotion through words — and they don't have to.⁠

Karin Wagenaar explores how nonverbal cues like posture, movement, and tension can guide attunement and deepen emotional engagement in EFIT sessions. When we learn to read the body, we bring emotion into⁠
the room in an entirely new way.⁠

Synchrony and grace — Sue's words for what attachment science calls bonding.⁠

The moment a couple moves from protest and withdrawal into reach and response is the core change event of EFT — observable, repeatable, and still remarkable every time it happens in session.⁠

Understanding these moments, and creating more of them, is what brings us to Vancouver, May 9–11, 2027.⁠
