Emontional Freedom Technique
I teach a variation of the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) with outstanding results. EFT uses places on the body similar to acupuncture, but instead of needles, one merely taps the spots. I demonstrate this self tapping technique, while you, simultaneously perform it on yourself. This process is based on the use of many bodily systems and energy meridians. The EFT reprograms a person’s entire energy system. This is a powerful self-help technique. I feel that a session involving a mental health expert and EFT can be as beneficial as 10-40 conventional psychotherapy sessions.
I can guide you to correctly tease out aspects, emotions, and correct resistance (termed 'reversals' in EFT), so that you obtain the full benefit from EFT.
Due to my extensive study of alternative therapy modalities I have altered, and added to, the full basic formula. My clients are thrilled with the success they have achieved using my revised version of EFT.
My expanded version of EFT incorporates the use of the thymus, or heart center, and the crown chakra (energy center). This balances a person’s polarity by going inwards and activating the heart chakra. I have also added many Yin/Yang acupressure points. This not only balances ones male/female energy, but controls anxiety.
Some people choose to combine traditional therapy, perhaps Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Biofeedback, and EFT in one session. This can be accomplished and I will attempt to monitor your time if you wish to try all of these healing techniques. Remember I am here to serve your needs, and you are in the driver's seat. We can use your session in any manner of your choosing. If you need to talk and ventilate for 45 minutes then perform a short EFT exercise at the end, this can be accommodated.
Some EFT successes have been resolving: childhood molestation, depression, dysthymia, complicated Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), hopelessness, extreme marital dysfunctions, lethargy, decreasing addictive behaviors of any type, eliminating/quieting auditory hallucinations, decreasing the stress of Tinnitus, optimal functioning, test/performance anxiety, self esteem and weight loss, and increasing sleep.
I have even had success eliminating clients' audio hallucinations with this powerful energy psychology modality. Something that most mental health experts will state is extremely hard to achieve.
So let us tackle those arenas you previously though were fixed, and perform what you though was impossible!
