EFT Coaching for You
and your Animals
Clinical EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) releases old thought patterns that created stress, fears and anxiety. It heals emotional wounds, can alleviate physical pain and helps animals in training or working environments to slow down and focus.
I offer Clinical Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or Tapping) for you and your animals. Through Surrogate Tapping we tune into the experience of the animal. During a tapping sessions common themes emerge such as: early separation from the litter; fear of being returned to a rescue; confusion about what is required of them or performance stress if they are a sport dog, being parted from an owner or sale of an animal friend.
After my EFT certification 2020, I started to work with numerous pets and my own animals. I am fascinated by discovering what lies behind their behaviors.
EFT can ease your pets emotions and releases stress and triggers from events of their past. This works for any pet. EFT is a healing modality that quiets the nervous system in people and pets. It involves tapping on a sequence of certain acupressure points, mostly around the head and face, with the intention of releasing trapped emotions.
EFT, also known as Tapping, releases old thought patterns that create fears, phobias and anxiety in people, dogs and cats. It heals emotional wounds, can alleviate physical pain, and helps animals in training and/or working environments to slow down and focus.I for example use it right away when they get insured or sick. It is humbling how quickly an animal can come to neutralizing their issues.
How it works
We are actually not tapping on the pet itself but on the owner’s tapping points. It is also called Surrogate Tapping.
The human/owner taps on meridian endpoints on their own body while concentrating on the animal and their issues. You “tap for” the animal, acting as their surrogate.
First we will address issues the owner has with the problem and then switch to talk about the pet’s issue transitioning and talk from the animal’s perspective. Whatever comes to mind is valid and will be tapped on.
Let’s chat! Anything you want to ask and learn how we can potentially working together. I offer meetings online via Zoom (optional by FaceTime or by phone).
Over 320 studies have been done on Clinical EFT, with additionally over 100+ papers/case studies in peer-reviewed journals, EFT is recognized as evidence-based, effective for self-help, and used in healthcare settings. The research adheres to criteria set by the American Psychological Association.
Tapping points
We use those tapping points for surrogate tapping as well as for regular tapping
Similar to acupuncture, EFT focuses on the meridian points — or energy hot spots — to restore balance to your body’s energy. It’s believed that restoring this energy balance can relieve symptoms a negative experience or emotion may have caused.
Based on Chinese medicine, meridian points are thought of as areas of the body energy flows through. These pathways help balance energy flow to maintain your health. Any imbalance can influence disease or sickness.
Acupuncture uses needles to apply pressure to these energy points. EFT uses fingertip tapping to apply pressure.
Side of the hand tapping point
In EFT we tap on the side of the hand for what is called Psychological Reversal
Psychological Reversal is a subconscious condition of self-sabotage. it is easier to stay stuck in old patterns than creating a new one. Chinese Medicine says that when a living being is under stress, especially for a long time, the energy in the meridians can become stagnant, or even reversed. The side of the hand point lays on the small intestine meridian.
Each energy meridian is part of a network that is related to a body organ or function, and each one embodies a way of thinking, a story about what is happening inside us, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually – our way of responding to life.
Tapping on this point in the Setup corrects the Psychological Reversal.
Concerns We Address
01.
Dog's Car Anxiety
Help your dog ride with ease—and even enjoy car rides!
Although many dogs love riding in cars, others dread the experience. Symptoms are both behavioral and physical, including resistance getting into a car, attempting to escape, whining, drooling, vomiting, trembling or shivering. We have the solution!
02.
Performance Stress
Over 50% of all performance dogs experience too much stress in the ring. They will pick up on your stress and expectations and either stress up or down. Let’s work together and turn it into a fun game.
03.
Focus Issues
Does your dog get distracted easily, with emotions running hotter than brains? Have you tried all sorts of training—but nothing helps? Let’s identify their stressors and resolve them together!
04.
Peeing outside the Litter Box
Medical issues can cause your cat to pee outside their litter box but it can also be emotional stress or frustration. EFT is a simple way to find out and remove the cause.
05.
Anxiety
Anxious and shy animals are common. There are so many impressions they don’t understand. Anxiety can occur in animals from any background. Separation anxiety is most commonly seen in pets. Help your animal to settle with the tools in my toolbox.
06.
Dog Escaped
Clinical EFT works excellent with escaped or lost animals. I experienced this with my own dog when I was in Costa Ricca and my dog escaped the sitters home.
07.
Confidence Issues
Is your dog often shy, insecure, or fearful? Dogs’ nervousness manifests in several ways. Some dogs lunge or bark at whatever is frightening them, or hunker down and freeze until the scary thing goes away. Other dogs show more subtle signs of discomfort. Together, we can build your dog’s confidence.
