Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

EFT, also known as tapping, blends acupressure and psychology to help move emotional energy stuck in the system. You tap on specific meridian points while naming what’s coming up—fear, shame, anger, anything the body’s been holding. It’s weirdly simple. And wildly effective. It’s a nervous system hack that tells your brain: this is safe now. Instead of stuffing down emotions or spiraling in loops, EFT gives them space to move. It rewires thought patterns, softens triggers, and calms the body—all without needing a full mental breakdown first.

What It’s Like

You’ll tap gently on acupressure points (face, chest, hands) while voicing thoughts or emotions— either out loud or in your mind. The practitioner guides the process, helping you move through layers. Sessions can feel light, cathartic, emotional, or even surprisingly peaceful.

FAQs

Is this like acupuncture?
Not quite. EFT uses fingertip tapping on acupressure points—no needles, just gentle touch and intention.
What kind of issues does EFT help with?
Everything from fear, phobias, burnout, and grief to self-sabotage, procrastination, and emotional spirals.
What if I don’t know what I’m feeling?
That’s okay. The practitioner helps identify and guide what’s coming up—even if it’s messy or unclear.
Can I use this on my own later?

Yes. One of the best things about EFT is that it’s easy to learn and use between sessions.

Will I cry or get emotional?

Maybe. It’s welcome. EFT is safe, contained, and designed to help emotions move—not overwhelm
you.

How fast does it work?
Some people feel immediate relief. Others notice gradual shifts over time. The body sets the pace.
