EFT stands for Emotional Freedom Technique, a simple but powerful therapeutic tool that combines elements of traditional talk therapy with acupressure. Here's how it works:
EFT is evidence-based, non-invasive, and easy to practice. During sessions, you are guided to gently tap on certain points around the body while focusing on specific thoughts, feelings or memories.
These gentle tapping sensations send calming signals to the amygdala — the part of your brain responsible for detecting threats and triggering stress responses like anxiety, fear, or overwhelm.
The purpose of this guided tapping is that it physiologically interrupts the body’s fight-flight-freeze response, and helps to rewire the neural pathways that keep you stuck in unhelpful patterns.
EFT helps you release fear and gently work through long-held emotions. It calms the nervous system, making it easier to shift limiting patterns and reconnect with more grounded, empowering beliefs.
My EFT Story
I chose to receive EFT a few years ago because I was feeling squashed down, unable to have a true voice and a bit powerless. I was hungry to change that. I wanted to live a bigger life. Fast forward to NOW: I’m more confident, vocal and opinionated, and more myself. I enjoy life in a fuller way. I feel worthy and sure of myself. It’s bloody great.
I believed in the practice so much that I became a certified EFT practitioner to help experience their own transformation. Whether you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or just not quite yourself, EFT can help you release what’s holding you back — and reconnect with your inner steadiness and strength.

EFT FAQs
HOW DOES EFT WORK?
You and I will meet on Zoom for six 1-hour sessions. Together, we’ll choose a theme that feels important to you — like confidence at work, anxiety, fear of visibility, setting boundaries, or letting go of shame from the past. Each session is tailored to your needs and your pace.
We’ll talk about what’s going on for you, and then we’ll gently begin tapping — you’ll copy me as I guide you through the points. Along the way, I’ll ask thoughtful questions to help you get to the root of the issue. You might connect with memories or beliefs you hadn’t fully seen before — but you’ll never be rushed or pushed. Everything is held with care and compassion.
Clients often describe EFT as surprisingly emotional, surprisingly effective, and surprisingly light. Even when we go deep, it’s done in a way that feels manageable — and the shifts can be profound.
IS EFT RIGHT FOR ME?
EFT is ideal for people who are already a little bit into self-help, and are open to trying something new. You might be a business owner who keeps hitting the same mindset blocks. Or someone with anxiety who’s tired of feeling like they’re “just wired this way.”
You might have childhood wounds you’ve never fully processed. Or maybe you can’t quite name the issue — you just know that something isn’t sitting right and you’re ready to feel better.
EFT is especially powerful for those who’ve tried therapy, coaching, or counselling in the past, but felt like they never quite got to the root of it. You don’t need to be spiritual or a “woo” person to benefit — just open and curious.
WHAT RESULTS ARE COMMON?
Clients tell me they walk away from EFT sessions feeling lighter, clearer, and more free — like they’ve finally released something heavy they’ve been carrying for years.
Some have applied for jobs they’d previously felt too scared to go for. Others have left unhealthy relationships or stepped into new ones with confidence. Many have let go of shame and internalised beliefs that were silently holding them back.
But most of all, they feel more like themselves — grounded, calm, energised and capable. And that creates a ripple effect that touches every area of life: work, parenting, health, relationships, creativity, and beyond.
