I’ve been in the human development field for over 21 years as a therapist, as a coach, as a workshop leader, as a speaker, and as an author. I want you to know that I haven’t always used EFT in my practice. In the early years my practice was primarily “talk therapy” and I specialized in working within a “strengths-based, solution-focused” philosophy. I got amazing results with my clients for many years.
BUT…
The BUT is that people (myself included) were still experiencing what I call “Emotional Hijackings” – reactions that are triggered by things people say or events that happen. It’s that awful feeling that instead of you living life – life is living you!
Having been originally trained in TFT (Thought Field Therapy) in 1997 I knew something about “tapping” techniques but I used it only when I had someone come into my office with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome). To be honest, I didn’t think about using it for other things! It was quite by chance that I came across EFT and other Meridian Tapping Techniques I realized how easy it was to teach clients how to do the tapping to work on triggers outside of therapy I quickly started learning everything I could about them. Now I use the tapping with ALL my clients. Has this changed the results my clients are getting – ABSOLUTELY! By combining the solution-focused “talk” component with the tapping clients were reporting amazing results.
I’m honored to be a member of the progressive professionals that are combining “traditional” therapy/coaching approaches with cutting-edge energy practices. In addition to having my own private coaching practice, I’ve had the awesome opportunity to be a coach with Robbins International Research Inc. since 2004. I was thrilled to bring EFT Master Carol Look to the company in the summer of 2007 to introduce the coaches to the power of EFT.
