When a Prisoner Won’t Disclose the Issue
By Rehana Webster
Gary Craig’s Introduction
EFT Contributing Editor Steve Wells from Australia has been in contact with Rehana Webster, an expert in applying EFT in the New Zealand prison system.
As you might appreciate, prisoners often feel such pain, guilt, fear, etc. about their issues that they don't want to discuss them with anyone. Accordingly, they can be very close mouthed about their problems. So how do you apply EFT if the client won't even tell you what the problem is?

Claude Improves His Fishing (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
On the subject of using EFT “for everything” (Gary Craig’s oft-repeated advice), I would like to report an unusual effect of this technique, which was shared with me by Hank Krol, a counselor at Stairways Behavioral Health, an outpatient mental health clinic in Erie, Pennsylvania that deals with severely disturbed patients.
EFT for a Child’s Plane Sickness (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
A colleague of mine, Stephani Fried, whom many people on Gary Craig's previous email list probably recognize because of her insightful postings to it, joins me here in reporting a recent successful EFT treatment in which we were both centrally involved — she as the mother of the little girl who was being treated, I as her therapist.
EFT for Couple’s Therapy (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
There are some EFT and therapy sessions that leave me feeling, "This is how it should be. It’s why I’m in this work." A recent EFT session with a couple had this effect on me.
EFT Surrogate Tapping on a Plane (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
Before the details fade in my mind, I’ve been wanting for some time to report an EFT "intentionality" episode, which I experienced when I was flying back from the Toronto Energy Conference.
Two seats away from me there was a young woman I would guess to be in her early twenties.
EFT with an Adult Child of an Alcoholic (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
Sometimes intense emotion can block progress to therapy and can make EFT almost impossible to conduct with its usual effectiveness. This is where special strategies can be used to lessen the emotional pain and facilitate the therapy.
Hidden Aspects of the Fear of Flying (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
Most of us know that fear of flying usually has many aspects and that it may well require more than one session of EFT to clear up this type of fear entirely.
I frequently get email, telling me that the writers have not been as successful as they would like to be in clearing a flight phobia completely, even when using EFT, although they have targeted some of the more familiar aspects of plane fears such as:
Multiple Phobias Treated with EFT – 10-Year Follow-Up (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
There are times when nature seems to help us out by testing our EFT work to see whether it’s “for real.” My experience with “Louise” is a prime example of this and also demonstrates the extraordinary lasting power of this approach.
When Louise originally consulted me it was for problems she had “leaving home.” She was a highly competent executive in a major corporation, a large, rangy young woman with startlingly blue eyes, a pretty face, and the ways of an exuberant child. She would often burst into my office like a whirlwind and start talking long before she was seated.
Sneaking Up on a Problem with EFT (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
One of the distinguishing features of EFT is its gentle nature when used correctly. This is In sharp contrast to the harshness of such behavioral techniques as Exposure Therapy or Flooding, which expose a person to unbearably intense levels of the very thing they fear in an attempt to numb them, or immune them, to their feared “object”. The latter techniques are all too often of little use at best, and at worst can severely re-traumatize a vulnerable person.
Using EFT for a Macho War Veteran (Article)
By Dr. Patricia Carrington
In this article, I’m going to describe how I used the Tearless Trauma Technique to help a Viet Nam veteran, “Tommy”, accept EFT, even though the standard EFT protocol might well have caused reactions in him, which would have run counter to his Self Image. In that event, he would likely have refused to participate in the treatment.
