We will answer general non-diagnostic questions related to the use of EFT healing techniques in healing cases of PTSD (PTSS) and other anxiety-driven behaviors.

Experience in the area

I have been a practitioner of this work for over 20 years, specializing in anxiety, phobias and PTSD cases. This work is also available on the web for self-help and is found to be highly effective in over 80% of all cases.

Education/Credentials

20+ Years of EFT practice, attended EFT seminars with Gary Craig.

What do you like about this subject?

That you can heal PTSD in most cases without drugs, years of talk therapy and suffering.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

To establish a PTSD center and to have a live PTSD radio show, doing EFT work with callers.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

I live in San Diego, CA, but can assist others using EFT over the phone, by appointment.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

The correct medical terminology is PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), often thought of as being different than PTSS. They are interchangeable terms for the same situation.
