Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT Tapping) in Stratford & Online Across Ontario
A Gentle Way to Calm the Body, Soothe the Mind & Shift What’s Stuck
If you’ve tried traditional talk therapy but still feel stuck—like your body hasn’t caught up with your healing—Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), or “tapping,” might offer the missing link.
EFT combines gentle acupressure with verbal processing to help release emotional blocks, reduce anxiety, and restore a sense of calm and balance.
It’s simple. It’s body-based. And for many people, it’s incredibly powerful.
What is EFT Tapping?
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a mind-body approach that involves tapping on specific acupressure points (usually on the face and upper body) while speaking aloud about distressing emotions or beliefs.
This process sends calming signals to the brain, helping regulate the nervous system and gently disrupt patterns of emotional reactivity.
EFT is grounded in both Eastern acupressure and Western psychology. Research shows that tapping can reduce cortisol (the stress hormone), soothe the fight-flight-freeze response, and support long-term emotional change.
You don’t need to “believe in it” for it to work. You just need to be open.
What Can EFT Help With?
EFT is incredibly versatile and can be used to support:
Anxiety and panic
PTSD and trauma triggers
Chronic stress and burnout
Emotional overwhelm or dysregulation
Limiting beliefs and self-doubt
Phobias or specific fears
Grief and heartbreak
Physical symptoms with emotional roots (e.g., headaches, tension, fatigue)
Blocks around worthiness, money, or boundaries
It’s also gentle enough to be integrated into work with highly sensitive individuals, neurodivergent clients, or anyone with nervous system sensitivity.
How Does EFT Work in Therapy?
In a session, you’ll be gently guided to:
Name what’s present – whether it’s a thought, emotion, physical sensation, or memory
Tap through specific meridian points – calming the nervous system while staying grounded
Process and release stuck energy – often leading to a deep sense of relief, insight, or emotional shift
Integrate new beliefs or intentions – replacing old patterns with more empowered ways of being
EFT is flexible and can be used as a stand-alone session or woven into talk therapy, somatic work, or trauma recovery.
