Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? I've got answers! Here are some of the most common questions about holistic therapy, EFT tapping, and how we can work together on your healing journey.
About EFT Tapping
What is EFT Tapping and how does it work?
EFT Tapping, or Emotional Freedom Technique, is like giving your emotions a gentle nudge towards peace. You tap on specific points on your body while focusing on the issue you want to release. It's like a mini acupuncture session without the needles, helping to balance your energy and calm your mind. EFT Tapping has been shown to reduce stress, anxiety, and even physical pain by lowering cortisol levels and promoting relaxation, as well as performance enhancement. As Gary Craig says: "EFT, by far, is the most fascinating, most rewarding, most effective tool I have ever found for personal improvement. Try it on anything!"
Can EFT Tapping really help with anxiety and stress?
You bet! EFT Tapping has been known to work wonders on anxiety and stress. It's like giving your worries a friendly tap-out, helping you find some much-needed inner chill. Many folks have found it to be a game-changer for managing those pesky negative emotions. Studies have shown that EFT can lead to a significant decrease in anxiety levels.
What are some common misconceptions about EFT Tapping?
One common misconception is that EFT Tapping is just a placebo. However, over 300 studies suggest that EFT Tapping is more than just a placebo, providing relief from a variety of concerns and boosting mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Another misconception is that it requires a lot of time and practice to see results, but many people experience benefits even after their first session.
How can I prepare for an EFT Tapping session?
It's helpful to have a quiet space, some tissues and water nearby, and a pen and paper to jot down any insights or emotions that arise, although I will do the writing, so you just need to focus on yourself. Make sure before the session that your device is charged and the lighting is good, as I need to see you properly to help you through your process. Remember, there's no need to have expectations about how the session should go; easing into the process often leads to the best results.
What should I expect during an EFT Tapping session?
During an EFT Tapping session, you'll be guided to focus on a particular issue while tapping on specific points on your body. It's common to experience a range of emotions, and some people may feel a sense of release or relief. I will always tell you everything and guide you through the process. No need to worry. Easy peasy!
Can EFT Tapping be used for physical ailments as well?
Absolutely! EFT Tapping can be effective for a variety of physical ailments, including headaches, chronic fatigue, and even autoimmune conditions. By addressing the emotional components that may contribute to these issues, EFT can help restore balance and promote healing.
How do I know if EFT Tapping is right for me?
EFT Tapping is suitable for anyone looking to manage stress, anxiety, or emotional challenges. It's a non-invasive technique that can be easily integrated into your daily routine. I will teach you how. Many people find that EFT Tapping provides them with a sense of empowerment and control over their emotions.
What is the recommended session frequency?
You might just need one session to put something into place in your life. If you are more committed for "fast lane" results, I recommend at least two sessions per week. However, everyone is unique, and so is their healing journey. Some clients prefer to sit with it for a while after a session, while others prefer more frequent sessions, even daily, for a more intensive experience. We'll discuss the ideal frequency for you, tailoring our approach to your specific needs and goals.
Spiritual and Holistic Techniques I Use
What is Ho'oponopono and how can it help me?
Ho'oponopono is a Hawaiian practice that's all about forgiveness and letting go. It's like giving your inner critic a timeout. By repeating phrases like "I love you, I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you," you can release old baggage and find some inner peace. This practice can help you forgive yourself and others, leading to a sense of mental and emotional cleansing.
How does Angel Card reading work?
Angel Card reading is like having a chat with your guardian angels. You shuffle a deck of cards, pick one, and let the message guide you. It's a fun way to get some spiritual insights and a nudge in the right direction. Think of it as a cosmic pep talk.
What is Byron Katie's "The Work" technique?
Byron Katie's "The Work" is a bit like a truth-seeking mission for your thoughts. You question your beliefs and assumptions to see if they're really true. It's a bit like being your own detective, but for your mind. This technique helps you identify and challenge the thoughts that cause suffering, leading to more peace and freedom.
Can meditation really make a difference in my life?
Absolutely! Meditation is like a spa day for your mind. It can help you feel more centered, reduce stress, and even boost your creativity. It's a bit like hitting the reset button on your brain. Meditation has been shown to create large and rapid drops in anxiety, depression, and other psychological symptoms.
What are Access Bars and how do they work?
Access Bars are like energy highways on your head. By gently touching these points, you can release stored energy and old patterns. It's a bit like giving your brain a gentle massage. This therapy can help you clear out mental and emotional blocks, allowing for a fresh start.
Online, Offline, and Mobile Work

Before you know it, you'll be feeling like a million bucks—well, maybe not that much, but you get the idea. I'm here to help you overcome emotional blocks and heal from past traumas.
Session Details and Logistics
How long does a typical session last?
A typical session with me can last anywhere from 90 to 200 minutes, depending on what you're looking to achieve. It's like a cozy chat with a side of healing—long enough to dive deep, but not so long that you'll be dreaming of your comfy bed halfway through.
What should I expect during my first session?
Your first session is all about getting to know each other and setting the stage for your healing journey. Normally, I give an extra 30 minutes if needed so we have plenty of time, no pressure, and you still have time to heal. We'll chat about your goals, any challenges you're facing, and how we can work together to tackle them. It's like a first date, but with more heart and less awkward silence.
Do you offer any packages or discounts for multiple sessions?
Absolutely! I offer bundles that can help you save a pretty penny while diving deep into your healing journey. It's like buying in bulk, but for your soul's well-being. Just ask me about the details, and we'll find the perfect fit for you.
What is your cancellation policy?
Life happens, and sometimes plans change. If you need to cancel, just give me a heads-up at least 24 hours in advance, and we'll reschedule without any hassle. It's like having a flexible friend who understands that stuff comes up.
Do you accept insurance for your services?
Currently, I don't accept insurance, but many clients find that the investment in their well-being is well worth it. Think of it as an investment in your happiness and health. If you have any questions about payment, just shoot me a message, and we'll figure it out together.
What if I need to reschedule a session?
No worries! Just let me know as soon as you can, and we'll find a new time that works for both of us. It's like a dance—sometimes you need to change the steps, but the music always keeps playing.
How do I prepare for a session?
There's no special prep needed, but coming with an open mind and heart can really help. Wear something comfy, and if you have any specific goals or issues you want to address, jot them down beforehand. It's like coming to a party—you don't need a fancy dress, just a willingness to have a good time.
Can I bring a friend or family member to a session?
I rather suggest not to. If anyone is around, it can take away your focus and might make you more conscious about what you say or not. It can block you from bringing your true block to the surface. If you think having a loved one there would be beneficial anyway, just let me know in advance. We can arrange a session that includes them, or they can sit in on yours. It's like having a plus-one to your healing party.
What if I have a question between sessions?
I'm always here to support you, even between sessions. Feel free to reach out via message, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. It's like having a therapist on speed dial, ready to lend an ear whenever you need it.
Do you offer any follow-up support after our sessions?
You bet! I believe in providing ongoing support to help you stay on track. I do time-to-time check-ins. Whether it's through check-in emails, additional resources, or just a friendly chat, I'm here to keep you motivated and inspired. It's like having a personal cheerleader in your corner. Please note, I have resources limited. I am not available for hours-long chats as I have to share my times between clients, but I always do my best.
What if I'm not sure which technique is right for me?
No worries! I'm here to guide you. During our initial chat, we can explore your needs and goals, and I'll suggest the techniques that might work best for you. It's like having a spiritual matchmaker, helping you find your perfect healing fit.
Can I record our sessions for personal use?
Of course! If you'd like to record our sessions to refer back to later, just let me know, and we can arrange it. It's like having a personal healing playlist, ready to play whenever you need a boost.
What if I'm not happy with the session?
I want you to be completely satisfied with our work together. If you're not feeling the vibe, let me know, and we'll figure out how to make it right. Your happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I'm committed to ensuring you get the support you need.
Do you offer retreats?
Yes, I occasionally host retreats, both online and offline. These are great opportunities to dive deeper into your healing journey and connect with a community of like-minded individuals. It's like a spiritual vacation, where you can recharge and rejuvenate.
What if I have a busy schedule and can't commit to regular sessions?
No problem! I understand that life can be hectic. We can work around your schedule and find a rhythm that suits you, whether it's weekly, bi-weekly, or even monthly sessions. It's like a flexible fitness plan, but for your soul.
Travel and Logistics Questions
Do you provide your own transportation when traveling for sessions?
Typically, I prefer to have my transportation covered when traveling for sessions. This ensures that I can focus on providing the best possible service without worrying about the logistics of getting around. However, if you have a reliable and convenient mode of transportation available, we can discuss that option as well.
Who is responsible for arranging and paying for your accommodation?
When I travel for sessions, I usually prefer to have my accommodation arranged and paid for by the host. This can include hotels, Airbnbs, or any other suitable lodging. If you have accommodation available, that works too! Just let me know the details, and we can make it happen. If I am in town anyway, then you do not need to worry. Message me to find out!
What if I need to cancel a travel session due to unforeseen circumstances?
Life happens, and sometimes plans change. If you need to cancel a travel session, just give me a heads-up as soon as possible. We can reschedule, and there won't be any hard feelings. Flexibility is key, and I'm always happy to work with you to find a new date that suits everyone's needs.
How do you handle travel expenses and reimbursements?
Travel expenses, including transportation and accommodation, are typically covered by the host or client. If there are any additional expenses, we can discuss reimbursement options beforehand. Transparency is important, so I'll make sure you're aware of any potential costs upfront.
What is your process for booking travel sessions?
Booking a travel session with me is a breeze! Just reach out via email or message, and we'll discuss your needs and availability. Once we've agreed on a date and location, I'll provide you with all the necessary details. It's like planning a mini-vacation in your own home, but with healing vibes!

Absolutely, if I can! Please note that sudden sessions are subject to availability. I understand that sometimes last-minute changes are necessary. If you have a sudden need for a session, just let me know, and I'll do my best to travel to you. Flexibility is my middle name, after all!
Do you have any preferences for the type of accommodation provided?
I'm pretty easygoing when it comes to accommodation. Whether it's a cozy Airbnb, a comfortable hotel, or even a spare room in your home, I'm happy as long as it's clean, safe, and convenient. Just make sure there's a comfortable place for me to rest and recharge between sessions as I am not a machine after all; I also need rest.
How do you ensure confidentiality and professionalism during travel sessions?
Confidentiality and professionalism are non-negotiable for me. I always ensure that our sessions are conducted in a private and secure environment. Whether we're in a dedicated therapy space or a quiet corner of your home, you can rest assured that our time together will be respectful and focused on your well-being.
What if I need to extend or shorten the duration of a travel session?
No problem at all! If you need to adjust the duration of a travel session, just let me know, and we'll figure it out together. Whether you need an extra day or want to wrap things up a bit earlier, I'm more than happy to accommodate your needs.
Do you offer any follow-up support after sessions?
You bet! I believe in providing ongoing support to help you stay on track. I do time-to-time check-ins. Whether it's through check-in emails, additional resources, or just a friendly chat, I'm here to keep you motivated and inspired, even after our sessions are over. Please note, I have resources limited. I am not available for hours-long chats as I have to share my times between clients, but I always do my best.
