The
Emotional
Freedom
Technique (EFT - also known as "Tapping Therapy") 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.
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.
EFT therapy 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 also very fast. 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 a proven
90% success rate (see supporting research summary).

The EFT process is deceptively 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 a single
session. EFT is the most effective, efficient, gentle healing
method I
have come across since I became a therapist 13 years ago and it has
transformed the effectiveness of my emotional healing practice. EFT
often
works where other methods fail.
"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

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.
