Dorothy Rodwell, LMFT, is now offering Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) at A Holistic Approach Center for Natural Health & Wellness in Fort Myers. EFT is a powerful therapeutic approach that combines Eastern and Western healing methods. Based on the same energy meridians as acupuncture, EFT uses a gentle tapping technique along with elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Imaginal Exposure, creating a unique path to wellness.

Research on EFT shows promising results for various issues, including depression, anxiety, emotional eating, chronic pain, and trauma. This versatile modality helps calm the nervous system and promotes both emotional and physical wellness, making it suitable for everyone.

EFT can also benefit pets. In January, Rodwell will host a free educational talk on using EFT for dogs, helping attendees learn techniques to support their pets’ emotional health. While EFT sessions for dogs are not a substitute for training, they can help address emotional blockages and stress, enhancing the quality of life for both animals and owners.
