What is EFT?

EFT (Emotional Freedom TechniquesTM) is a remarkable method of reducing and often eliminating negative emotions such as fear, anxiety, shame and anger to name just a few. The process is quick, painless and simple to learn, with results that are real and permanent.

EFT theory: "The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system" - Gary Craig, Founder of EFT

During an EFT session I instruct you on how to tap on points on your face, upper body and hands that link to the meridians*. The tapping is carried out while you are focussed on the problem, and therefore causing a disruption in your energy system. You will often be able to feel this disruption, not just as the emotion but also physically as churning in your stomach or a tightness in your chest or throat, for example. Tapping while you are thinking about your problem will balance the body's energy so that there is no longer a disruption and you will no longer experience the negative emotion. Fears, phobias, PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and many other longstanding emotional problems have been easily cleared this way.

The predecessor of EFT was TFT (Thought Field Therapy) which was discovered by Dr Roger Callahan in 1980. While working with a client with an intense water phobia that she could feel as a sensation in her stomach he asked her to tap on her stomach meridian point (located just under the eye). She immediately felt complete relief from her fear and it never returned! With this success Callahan went on to research and develop TFT.

Gary Craig, the founder of EFT In 1995, Gary Craig, a student of Dr Callahan's, simplified the process and made it more accessible giving us EFT. Gary Craig’s official EFT site http://www.emofree.com is a mine of information for anyone who is seriously interested in EFT. He has also produced set of very low cost training videos on DVD to teach the EFT basics and more advanced methods. These are suitable for both self help and as practitioner training. I can personally recommend all of the DVD sets and I'm sure you will find them very good value for money. You can read more about the DVD's and purchase them here.

EFT can be learnt either with a practitioner or via the DVD's and once learnt you will be able to apply it yourself to practically any emotional problem. EFT is truly a valuable tool for life.

* The meridians which are used in EFT are the ancient Chinese energy pathways in the body that are used in acupuncture. However with EFT instead of using needles to balance the energy, a light tapping technique is used instead. In fact EFT is often referred to as "Emotional Acupuncture".

What can EFT help me with?

Any negative emotion that you experience, but you no longer wish to have, can be worked on with EFT. It may be something that you have been carrying around with you for a long time, perhaps since childhood, or a problem that you have tried to resolve before with different types of therapy but with no success. EFT is suitable for all of these types of problems. It doesn’t matter how long it has been with you or how deep-seated it may be, EFT is very likely to be the answer you are looking for. I cannot promise you positive results 100% of the time, but the true figures of success aren’t too far off from this, which is a great improvement on most other types of therapy. Plus with EFT you have the added bonus of its speed in working, and simplicity so that you can use it yourself at home. I also offer a money back guarantee with every first session that you will gain positive results. In turn this makes EFT a very good value solution.

These are a few of the areas that I have worked in with clients and gained positive results:

  • Fears and phobias
  • Anxiety
  • Bereavement
  • Poor self esteem
  • Lack of self confidence
  • Weight problems
  • Relationship problems
  • Limiting beliefs
  • Insomnia
  • Lack of motivation
  • And many many more..

In addition to these emotional issues, EFT can also be hugely effective with managing physical pain. Often anxiety about the pain can contribute towards to and magnify it hundredfold. The types of pain you may use it with include:

  • General joint stiffness and aches
  • Pain from injuries
  • Painful conditions such as arthritis
  • Headaches and migraine
  • Also other physical problems such as asthma have been successfully treated with EFT.

Just think what may lay ahead if you were to be free of all the negative emotions that hold you back..

How much do you charge for EFT?

The first session is an hour and a half and will teach you the full EFT procedure so you are happy using it yourself at home, as well as dealing with as much of your emotional issue(s) as we have time for. Subsequent sessions will be charged only for the time used (minimum of 30 minutes).

Your first session comes with a full money back guarantee that you will achieve positive results within the first 90 minute session. This does not mean that all problems are guaranteed to be fully resolved within the first session, but that you will achieve a positive result, i.e. gain a reduction in the negative emotions linked to the issue, or I will give you your money back in full.

First session
90 minutes, including tuition - £60.00
Further sessions
60 minutes - £40.00

The same charges apply to sessions both at my clinic and over the phone. Payments can be made by cash (for appointments in person), cheque or via the internet by credit/debit card with PayPal. If you don't already have an account with PayPal you will be able to set one up free of charge when you make your payment. Once you have booked your EFT session you will be sent details on how to make your payment.
