Welcome!

If you need support or guidance, you’ve just landed at the perfect place. For over ten years, I have helped my clients transform their lives by systematically and speedily dissolving their emotional blocks, unhelpful beliefs and behaviours so they can become the best possible version of themselves.

To achieve rapid, lasting results, I deploy cutting-edge psychological tools. I work with empathy and humour, and draw upon a huge range of creative sources. My aim is always for a session to be, in equal measures, effective, enjoyable and FUN!

I work internationally by phone and Skype. I also offer personal sessions and workshops in London from my beautiful period houseboat moored near Canary Wharf.

I help my clients with a broad range of issues, specialising in achieving peak performance, unleashing creativity, releasing fear and trauma, and weight loss. (It can be excitingly easy to shed excess weight or emotional baggage, conquer a fear, take a step into the limelight!)

I inspire and empower my clients by improving their mental scripts. I help identify and release limiting (often subconscious) blocks and beliefs. I love the fact that humour comes into play even with serious issues! I’m a writer, and I delight in using the power and nuances of words to reframe and illuminate troublesome issues.

The key techniques I use are:

  • EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques)
  • Marisa Peer RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy), Hypnotherapy
  • NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming).

In EFT Tapping, I am certified at the highest available level by EFT founder Gary Craig.
In RTT, I trained directly with the renowned Marisa Peer.
My NLP training has been with Master Practitioner Dr. Steve G. Jones.

What is EFT Tapping?

Tapping / EFT—short for Emotional Freedom Techniques—is a fast, easy-to-learn, and remarkably powerful  self-help technique that can be used (in a  nutshell!) to:

  • relieve stress
  • dispel negative emotions
  • promote physical well-being

Based on the ancient art of Chinese acupuncture — but with the big advantage of no needles — tapping is gentle and non-invasive and can be done alone or with a therapist. Using your fingertips to tap on certain key points in the upper body, you can tune into a particular issue that is troubling you (emotional or physical) to help release or resolve it. It often works surprisingly fast; sometimes it requires some persistence. But it is always worth trying!

The Tapping Points

There are eight key points used in EFT. They are points where the ending of a meridian is very near to the surface.

(In addition—not pictured—there is also the “karate chop” point, between the base of the little finger and the beginning of the wrist, on the side of either hand.

From Anger to Peace

“Hi Everyone,

Jennifer Davidson from Switzerland writes this MUST READ, engaging article on how she overcame many hurdles with her inexpressive Parkinson’s client. Note her ongoing creativity. Many lessons to be learned here.

Hugs, Gary”

This post was first published on EFT Founder Gary Craig’s website, with the above introduction.

Dear Gary

Of the many clients I’ve worked with in Switzerland, I have particularly enjoyed the challenge presented by “Rene,” a gentle and initially inexpressive 64-year-old gentleman with Parkinson’s Disease. He has been quietly transformed, I believe, by the magic of EFT, and I’d like to share his story (with his permission; at his request, I’ve changed his name).

Rene came to me seeking to reverse, or at least contain, the symptoms of Parkinson’s, with which he was diagnosed eight years ago: Read More

Frustrated at the zoo

Three Magic Letters: EFT!

Slightly to my surprise, following a sudden impulse, I found myself at the zoo in Basel recently. Wandering along excitedly thinking “Lions and tigers and bears!” and wondering if there were elephants anywhere, I noticed a heavily tattooed and pierced mother with her little boy, age three or so. I was debating whether to accost her and enquire about elephants (she had a map) when the boy asked her a question.

Instantly angry she snapped back at him, swearing loudly: “Because we f***ing left it at home, that’s why!” His face fell a mile. She was glowering, furious. I felt bad for both of them. Read More
