What is Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)?
EFT is an extraordinary therapeutic technique, combining Eastern meridian knowledge and Western psychology. It is simple, gentle and incredibly effective.
EFT comes from the belief that when we experience a stressful, challenging or traumatic event, it can create something likened to a ‘block’ in our energy system, which can create an imbalance or disharmony in our body.
In EFT we allow space to tune in to a challenge you would like to address, while noticing emotions, sensations and thoughts that may be present, along with a simple self-tapping technique applied to acupressure points.
Through the process of EFT, it works to safely reduce the intensity of what it is you’re working on, and Tessa will offer guidance of how to practice this technique outside of the therapeutic space, for long-term benefits.

What to Expect
People may consider EFT for a variety of reasons, which are all welcome.
