A gentle way to work with difficult thoughts and feelings.
EFT — commonly known as Tapping — combines elements of talking therapy with gentle tapping on acupressure points on the face and upper body.
It offers a practical way to explore emotional responses, difficult experiences and the patterns that can sometimes leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed or stuck.
Sometimes understanding why isn’t enough.
Have you ever known logically that you’re safe — but still felt anxious?
Known you shouldn’t blame yourself — but still carried guilt?
Known that something happened years ago — but found your body reacts as though it happened yesterday?
Or told yourself a hundred times not to worry about something, only to find yourself worrying anyway?
We’re very good at trying to think our way out of emotions.
Sometimes that works. Sometimes it doesn’t.
EFT provides another way of approaching those feelings.
Talking and tapping together.
During EFT, we gently bring our attention to a feeling, thought, memory or situation while tapping with our fingertips on a sequence of points on the face and upper body.
I guide you through the process throughout the session.
There is no requirement to believe anything particular for us to work together, and you don’t need previous experience of EFT.
What might bring someone to EFT?
People seek support for many different reasons, including:
- Anxiety and persistent worry
- Stress and feeling overwhelmed
- Burnout
- Low confidence or self-esteem
- Grief and loss
- Difficult memories and experiences
- Relationship and family difficulties
- Fears and phobias
- Life changes and transitions
- Parenting and family pressures
- Children struggling with difficult emotions
- Feeling stuck in repeated emotional patterns
- The transition as children grows up and leave home
You don’t need to fit neatly into one of these categories. What matters is what you are experiencing.
A technique you can make your own.
One of the reasons I was drawn to EFT is that the client remains actively involved.
I’m not doing something to you.
We’re working together.
And as you become familiar with tapping, you can begin using the basic technique independently — before a stressful meeting, when your thoughts are racing, during a difficult day, or simply when you notice emotions beginning to build.
For me, that is an important part of EFT: helping people develop something practical that doesn’t disappear when the session ends.
EFT that begins with you.
There isn’t a script that every client follows.
We begin by talking about what is happening in your life and what you would like to change.
Sometimes we know exactly what we want to explore. Other times, we begin with the feeling that is present now and gently follow where it leads.
You never need to force yourself into somewhere you aren’t ready to go.

Curious whether tapping could help you?
You don’t need to make a big commitment.
We can start with an initial conversation about what you are experiencing, what you hope might change and whether working together feels right.
