Professionals who get the best outcomes for their clients work at the junction of mind, body, emotion and energy. They recognize that unresolved emotional trauma lies at the base of most repetitive and self-defeating behaviors. Like you, they seek efficient and effective techniques that work quickly, and produce results with even the most difficult clients.
EFT is a practical, quickly-learned, hands-on technique for dealing with emotional distress at the deepest level. A news story in Examiner.com called it, “one of the most successful psychology self-help techniques ever developed.” Clinical EFT is the evidence-based form of EFT, validated in over 100 scientific studies, and includes 48 distinct techniques.
Many of your clients have heard of EFT or tapping because its popularity has grown rapidly over the past decade. Over 5 million people a month search online for "EFT tapping" and related terms, while the 5 highest-traffic EFT web sites have over 2 million page views a month. That’s all because EFT is so effective that it has spread by word of mouth. Training in EFT gives you a skill your clients want.
Consistently Produce Great Results for Your Clients
Research shows that treatment with Clinical EFT by a trained professional can produce the following results:
Reductions in anxiety of 40%+ - sometimes in a single session (Clond, 2015)
PTSD is remediated in 84% of veterans in 6 sessions (Sebastian & Nelms, 2016)
Overweight clients don’t just lose weight - they keep weight off long-term (Stapleton et al., 2014)
Reductions in depression symptoms of 41% (Nelms & Castel, 2016)
The elimination or reduction of stress-related conditions (Church, 2013a)
Follow-up studies show that for most clients, the results last over time (Church, 2013a)
Pain levels drop by an average of two-thirds in a 30 minute treatment (Church & Brooks, 2011)
The symptoms of autoimmune diseases like psoriasis and fibromyalgia are reduced (Brattberg, 2011; Hodge & Jurgens, 2014)
Effects are similar in many different populations, from stressed workers to students to refugees (Boath et al., 2014; Church 2013a)
The neutralization of traumatic memories, using memory reconsolidation (Church, 2013b)
Reductions in stress hormones like cortisol (Groesbeck et al, 2017)
The regulation of inflammation and immunity genes (Maharaj, 2016)
As a professional, wouldn’t you love to produce these results for your clients? Wouldn’t you like a method that consistently and reliably, client after client, is able to reduce the stress that underlies most disease? Wouldn’t a method that simultaneously enhanced both mental and physical wellbeing be great for those you serve? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to see your clients thriving in all these ways, while enjoying similar improvements in your own health and happiness?
Professional Skills Training in EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques)
The Live EFT 4 Day Professional Skills Training will train you in the full range of Clinical EFT methods described in The EFT Manual (3rd Ed), the primary source for research and training. The training is intensely practical, with 8+ hours of supervised practice, expert demonstration and feedback. The workshop has 16 modules (4 per day), with each module systematically building on the ones before.
The course begins with a detailed survey of the genetics and physiology of stress, and how EFTs foundational “movie technique” systematically reduces the emotional pain associated with traumatic memories. You also learn how to use EFT for common problems like addictive cravings, dissociation, phobias, pain, depression and anxiety, as well as 3 distinct methods for testing the effectiveness of your work.
You go on to learn EFTs 3 “gentle techniques” designed for use in cases of trauma and emotional flooding. You discover strategies for dealing even with issues for which previous therapy has failed, problems that clients believe are impossible to solve, and how to gracefully conclude a session when emotional work remains unfinished. You discover how core beliefs are formed by early childhood experiences and how to systematically shift them with EFT.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Can anyone take the training or is it only for professionals?
This course is designed to train professionals to offer Clinical EFT sessions to others. If you're looking for a training geared to your personal use of EFT, see our Introductory Experiential Workshop here.
2. Can I take the workshop online or via live streaming?
Some workshops are offered virtually, with this noted in the workshop description. Others, such as the 4 Day Professional Training, are offered both in-person and virtually. EFT Universe uses a virtual training model called "active learning." Research shows that classes using this model produce better student comprehension than conventional lectures (Deslauriers, McCarty, Miller, Callaghan & Kestin, 2019). EFT Universe has pioneered "best practices" for virtual learning to ensure that the class experience provides optimal engagement and comprehension for students.
3. I work in a stressful setting and I'm close to burnout. Can you apply these methods in this type of setting and can they help me on a personal level?
Very definitely. In the workshop, you’ll learn EFT techniques you can use during your work day and to de-stress yourself after work.
4. Does this workshop count toward EFT certification?
Yes. This is the foundational live course for Clinical EFT certification. For the full certification requirements, click here.
5. After taking the course, can I offer EFT to other people?
Most professionals offer EFT to their clients after taking this course. However, we recommend you complete the full certification requirements since these include supervised practice plus additional training.
6. Do you have special discounts or scholarships available?
Because we believe these tools are so powerful and we’d like to see them in the hands of everyone, we’ve made the workshops as affordable as possible. We are not able to offer further discounts or scholarships.
7. Can children come to the trainings?
Due to the nature of emotional memories, the youngest age at which children are admitted to the trainings is 15. There are several excellent books for younger children, such as Alex Ortner’s Gorilla Thumps and Bear Hugs, and Brad Yates’s The Wizard’s Wish.
8. What are your terms of service and privacy policy?
You can find our full terms of service and privacy policy here.
9. Can I obtain CE / CME credit for this workshop?

10. Will there be active hands-on demonstrations and exercises?
Yes. The course includes structured exercises led by expert trainers, as well as demonstrations of Clinical EFT techniques.
11. What is EFT Universe’s approach to diversity awareness?
Energy Psychology and EFT professionals are expected to practice with awareness of the diverse backgrounds of the clients with whom they work, and to engage clients with cultural humility and competence.
Among the cultural considerations for working with diverse populations are language barriers; religious beliefs and family values; community beliefs and practices; cultural attitudes to gender and age; cultural conceptions of health and illness; issues related to ethnic assimilation and cultural preservation; and attitudes toward women, children, individuals identifying as LGBTQ, and elders.
Research shows that EFT is able to quickly release emotional triggers. This makes it uniquely suitable for use when approaching charged issues including ethnicity, bias, and unconscious stereotyping.
A diverse working group of EFT practitioners has engaged the practitioner community in a dialog about the need for ethnic and cultural awareness during treatment sessions. Their educational perspectives are found on the Practitioner Development page.
