The Emotional Freedom Technique
A Powerful Tool for Relieving Negative Emotions and Pain

The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT - also known as "EFT Tapping Therapy" or "Meridian Tapping Techniques (MTT)") works like emotional acupressure to quickly, gently and easily release the negative emotions and beliefs that are at the root of all our problems and pain. EFT heals emotional problems by literally undoing the damage from the past.

Traditional Psychotherapy vs.
The Emotional Freedom Technique

With traditional talk psychotherapies you gain insights into the causes of your emotional difficulties and the new behaviors you would like to have. However, you are left needing to use your will power to try to behave in these new healthier ways. You still feel the internal urges in your "gut" to behave in the old ways. The result is an ongoing internal struggle between your gut feelings and your will power. This is very hard and progress can be very slow, sometimes taking years or even never.

The EFT Tapping Advantage

EFT Tapping doesn't have this problem. After working through an issue using EFT, you come out feeling different and you actually are different. Your gut is no longer telling you to behave in the old unhealthy ways. New behaviors are now natural because there is no internal struggle–you have changed inside and are a different person around this issue. The struggle is over.

EFT is 5 to 10 to 20 times faster than other methods. EFT only takes weeks to months to get relief and experience deep healing, instead of months to years (or never) with traditional psychotherapy.

EFT has over a 90% success rate (see brief EFT research summary).

EFT has been clinically effective in thousands of cases for emotional and physical healing (see the following examples):

The EFT Tapping Process

The EFT Tapping process is surprisingly simple. In its simplest form you just focus on something that is bothering you while tapping with your fingertips on 10 easily learned acupuncture points. You will discover that the painful feelings simply drain away. Negative beliefs lose their power as well. Learn the details of how to do EFT.

People often ask me how long the effect lasts. Do you have to keep reapplying EFT to maintain the relief? The answer depends on whether you apply EFT to the symptoms of a problem or the root cause of the problem. If you apply EFT to the symptoms of a problem without addressing the root cause, the relief will be temporary. If you apply EFT to the root cause of the problem, the relief will be permanent.

I have used EFT with my clients to relieve the pain from severe abuse memories in just one or two sessions. EFT is the most effective, efficient, gentle healing method I have come across since I started my emotional counseling practice 15 years ago and it has transformed the effectiveness of my healing practice. EFT often works where other methods fail.

What Professionals Are Saying About EFT Tapping Therapy and Energy Psychology

"I now believe that the most profound transformations can only take place only on an energetic level. I've met many patients who've spent much time and money on talk therapy hoping that intellectual insights will bring emotional freedom, but they're disappointed. As much as I love the linear mind, my approach which I call Energy Psychiatry goes further to also facilitate a conscious rebuilding of subtle energies, the most basic life force in each of us." - Judith Orloff, MD

"Your emotional health, your success in the world, and your level of joy can all be dramatically enhanced by shifting the energies that regulate them. That is the promise of the fascinating new field of Energy Psychology." - David Feinstein, Ph.D.

"Some day the medical profession will wake up and realize that unresolved emotional issues are the main cause of 85% of all illnesses. When they do, EFT will be one of their primary healing tools .... as it is for me." - Eric Robins, MD

Body-Centered Gestalt Psychotherapy

Gestalt Psychotherapy works closely with your in-the-moment internal process. It looks at how your process stops you from getting what you want and need. It then uses dynamic, experiential methods for addressing and working through these blocks and stuck feelings. You end up feeling different because you have changed inside around the issue or stuck place.

Body-centered psychotherapies, in addition, operate on the premise that sensation, breath, and movement are the body's form of speech, and that if we listen to this speech we can complete and release stored trauma, relearn how to feel excitement and pleasure, and engage in activities that nourish ourselves. Gestalt Therapy makes a wonderful complement to EFT Therapy.
