Question 1

What is EFT?

Accepted Answer

EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is sometimes described as having acupuncture without the needles.  It targets certain acupuncture points on the face and body where energy is stuck to help clear the emotional attachment to a certain belief, situation, fear, phobia or person.  
 
It is a very simple but highly effective technique for dealing with many issues on a mental, emotional, spiritual and physical level. As a result, deep seated issues, limiting thoughts & beliefs and fears & phobias can be permanently transformed in a positive way.  
 
It’s about bringing you back to balance so that experiences, patterns and behaviours are not repeated, and decisions can be made from a calm and centred place. I use a very simplified version of EFT, working with just one point and no tapping, which makes the process of releasing much quicker than using the traditional, longer EFT method.

Question 2

Tell me more about how you work.

Accepted Answer

I believe everything happens for a reason so for me, when I work through something personally, I like to understand what specifically is causing my present imbalance, where it comes from, and what I need to release it and make things better for me now and in the future.  I want to make sure it’s not coming back!
 
For me, it’s about the whole picture and that includes the details! This is also how I work with you – putting the whole story together like a jigsaw puzzle, by encompassing the past, present and future to gain total understanding of your feelings, behaviour or situation.  We then work together to release whatever the emotional blockage is, and incorporate ways to alter your thoughts, beliefs and behaviour to transform your present and future. It’s easier to let go of something when you can accept it, see it from a different perspective and it all makes perfect sense.
 
To do this, I provide a non-judgmental, safe, confidential space and use a blend of mind mapping, counselling skills and a very simplified version of EFT along with some other techniques I have learned along the way!  It’s a combination that really works. My clients tell me I have a knack for finding the cause of their emotions or behaviour. Moreover, they value my ability to help them release it in a safe and relaxed environment.  As a result, they leave feeling empowered, and able to move on to the next phase in their lives.

Question 4

What kind of people are your clients?

Accepted Answer

I work with men, women, children and teenagers from all walks of life on a variety of problems and issues.  I have a wide range of people who come to see me from the highly professional person to a child in primary school.  My only requirement is that the person wants to be in the session with me. Although my methods will work whether you want them to or not, for me the person needs to actively want to take part.  This is especially true of children and teens.
