The EAF Model

EAF 1 is suitable for those with limited prior knowledge of RFT and for those just starting out in feeding work. However, more experienced professionals may appreciate the thorough background to RFT which is provided.

I also appreciate and value the academic / research based articles selected & provided as reading in preparation for each presentation.

I loved your EAF course. It covered far more than I expected and I would highly recommend it to anyone who works with ‘fussy’ [avoidant] eaters.
