EFT/Tapping

EFT, which stands for Emotional Freedom Technique, is an easy, non-invasive technique for addressing nearly any issue. It can help with pain, unwanted habits or patterns, persistent emotional challenges, health issues or relationship issues, and so much more. Often referred to as Tapping, it uses light self-tapping (or massaging or holding) of various energy points, similar to acupuncture without the needles. These points are tapped while identifying the issues and related thoughts and feelings.

EFT arose from the understanding that all issues…physical or emotional, arise as a result of blockages in the energy system. Once freed up, the energy moves as intended and issues resolve. It can seem too simple or easy to be true, yet it is very powerful and effective.

You can find online many videos of explanation and how-to’s for the technique, and you can do a lot of tapping on your own at home, so why seek out a practitioner to guide you? There are several reasons.

• A trained practitioner not only keeps you focused and committed, but can help you recognized things you may not on your own.
• You may obtain resolution for an issue fairly well on your own, but unless deeper issues are addressed that are likely the source of the difficulties, it’s possible that the issue will eventually resurface.
• Because deeper themes, referred to as core issues, can become apparent, if you’re not prepared it may be unsettling. A practitioner knows specific ways of shifting the session to avoid intense emotions or re-traumatizing, and to keep you on track and feeling safe and controlled.
• A practitioner can help you make connections among issues you may not realize are related, and once the primary one is released, others can “collapse” like a domino effect, getting so much more out of your time and effort.

Many people find that compared with spending months or years in counseling, EFT can have results in only a matter of a few sessions; usually people find significant shifts in just one session, and sometimes complete resolution of some issues. Because you as the client do your own tapping, with me as guide, sessions can be done easily online, minimizing travel time to an office, or allowing for sessions while you travel or if you live outside of the Bend or Sunriver area.

Because all issues have at the core some underlying emotional/energetic issue, a commitment to a few or several sessions is recommended for creating lasting change and improving your life significantly. I can offer suggestions for tapping on your own between sessions to boost your progress.

If you really want to give it a try but don’t want to commit to a series, you may opt for a single session, but to make it as effective as possible, a stand alone session is offered for 90 minutes. We need time to establish the reason for the issue and the appropriate direction before beginning the tapping itself. Should you decide upon a package, the discount will be applied.

Session options:

Initial session only, 90 minutes: $190

1 ninety minute and 3 sixty minute sessions: $540

Follow up/extra sessions: $120
