Neural Knots. When we face hard things, our nervous systems respond to the issue itself, plus our emotions about the issue, plus our judgments about having the issue. That’s a lot of nervous system involvement! These reactions wire into our subconscious and affect our bodies, behavior, relationships, and stress levels. Also, the subconscious mind has no sense of time, so experiences from childhood can run in the background and impact us now.
How does EFT help? It unravels the knots. Tapping on specific acupuncture points while focusing on what’s troubling us unhooks our nervous system response from the issue so we can deal with it or let it go. EFT also addresses the ‘deal or let go’ piece by changing subconscious drivers that cause resistance, like childhood programming, limiting beliefs, or key memories. The techniques can address upsetting memories, difficult circumstances, recurring thoughts/feelings, physical issues and health, memory issues, pain, depression, cravings, traumatization, or feelings of anxiety. It can even work when you’re not sure what’s wrong.
PTSD & Me. EFT helped me heal from losing my home in the 2020 Almeda wildfire in a way EMDR and talk therapy couldn’t. I use it now for everything, on my own or with a practitioner. I even use it with my dog to support her health. It feels empowering to navigate life without substances, medications, or years of outside assistance – relief and self-knowledge are literally at my fingertips. As a practitioner, I use Clinical EFT which is not what you see on the internet, though its effectiveness does feel a bit mysterious.

I want to chat with you about what you’re looking for and what your goals are, so I can make sure they’re within my scope of practice. Single sessions can reveal deep issues you’d like to work with, but not enough time to explore or address them, so the minimum number of sessions when you start is three, including the discovery session. Discovery sessions involve tapping instruction and time to explore what’s troubling you and how you’d like things to change.

You are responsible for you. This is your journey. As an Accredited Clinical EFT Practitioner, Certified Coach, and Licensed Massage Therapist, I make every effort to provide you with safe, effective, and exemplary service. I am not a licensed counselor or psychologist, nor do I have a medical degree. If you already work with a mental or physical healthcare team, take medication, or use other treatments, EFT can complement your current course of treatment. It often changes your body chemistry enough that your dosage or frequency of medication may need to be adjusted. In this case, you must be in contact with your health or mental health practitioner about your use of EFT. It is currently being reviewed by the American Psychological Association as a treatment for PTSD and until approved is considered experimental.
