Why I Chose to Become a Certified Clinical Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Practitioner
Over the years, I’ve explored many therapeutic approaches, but none have resonated with me quite like Clinical EFT. It’s gentle, yet incredibly powerful. What I love most about it is that the solutions come from the client themselves, empowering them to truly own their healing process. This fosters long-term change, as when the body and mind experience calm, the mind can think more clearly, enabling better decision-making and emotional regulation.
EFT allows clients to uncover and release a wide range of emotions that contribute to feeling “stuck.” It promotes self-awareness and self-compassion—two outcomes I regularly see emerge in my work with clients. It’s a process that leads to healing not only at a mental level but also physically and emotionally, helping people create lasting transformations.
How EFT Works
One of the reasons I’m so passionate about Clinical EFT is that it works directly with the body’s nervous system. EFT is an evidence-based stress reduction technique, and when viewed through the lens of Polyvagal Theory, it activates the rest-and-digest response, allowing the body to heal, relax, and recalibrate. It addresses not just thoughts and emotions, but also the stress stored in the body, making it a powerful, holistic approach.
Unlike other therapies, EFT doesn’t require thought challenging. However, we do use elements of exposure therapy, where we focus on the “negative emotion or feeling” to gradually lower the body’s stress response to that experience. EFT works at a deeper level, accessing the unconscious mind, where we store most of our habits and emotional responses. Studies suggest we are only 1-5% aware of why we do what we do, which is why it can be so challenging to change deep-rooted patterns. EFT helps us tap into this unconscious level, releasing old, limiting beliefs and emotional blocks, creating lasting change.
The Science Behind EFT
Research supports the effectiveness of EFT, showing that it can have a positive impact on biological markers of health, including reducing stress hormones, lowering blood pressure, and even boosting immune function. EFT doesn’t just help us feel better emotionally—it has measurable effects on physical health too.
A Special Offer to Experience EFT
I’m offering a special package of 3 x 90-minute sessions for AUD $250 (one use per client) to help you experience the benefits of Clinical EFT for yourself. This package provides a great introduction to the technique, allowing us to start addressing the deeper issues that may be holding you back.

I offer online sessions for clients locally, across Australia, and internationally. Clinical EFT works exceptionally well over video calls, making it convenient and accessible no matter where you are.
