Description
A one-hour EFT session typically begins with a relaxed conversation between you and the therapist, in this case, me, Maria. It's quite casual, like a chat between friends. In the first 10 to 15 minutes, the focus is on understanding what's bothering you—it could be persistent anxiety, a troubling memory that keeps recurring, or even physical pain that seems linked to something emotional. I will listen to you attentively and ask a few questions to understand your feelings and how they affect your daily life. Together, we define a specific point to work on during the session. For example: "this tension in my chest when I think about work" or "the fear of public speaking."
Afterward, the therapist guides you to the practical part, which may last approximately 35 to 40 minutes. I teach you the basics, and you will gently tap with your fingers on specific points of your body—like the side of your hand, the top of your head, near your eyebrows, beside your eyes, under your nose, on your chin, and your collarbone. There is no need to memorize anything, as I will guide you while we practice together. At the same time, the client says simple phrases about their feelings, such as "Even though I feel this anxiety, I accept myself as I am" or something that matches what was defined during the initial chat. I, as the therapist, will guide you and adjust the words so that they make sense to you, and the rhythm is very natural, without forcing anything.
As you, the client, tap on these points and speak, it's common to feel something changing—sometimes the body relaxes, sometimes there's a sense of relief, or even a new memory may emerge. I, as the therapist, remain attentive and help you navigate through this, asking how you are feeling or if the intensity of the discomfort has decreased (many people like to give it a rating from 0 to 10 to get an idea). We delve deeper or shift the focus to another layer of what's bothering you if needed.
In the last 5 to 10 minutes, it's time to wrap up. We talk about how the client feels now compared to the beginning, and I, as the therapist, may suggest something simple for you to do at home, such as repeating a couple of minutes of EFT if the feeling returns. The goal is for you to leave feeling lighter, with a sense that you've taken a weight off your shoulders, even if it's just a first step.
It's a very direct process but also profound because it goes straight to what you are feeling without beating around the bush. Each session is unique, depending on what you bring to the table that day. What do you think? Would you like to know more? Buy your 10-session package and start experiencing the results.
