EFT is a psychotherapy technique that combines acupressure and modern psychotherapy. It addresses underlying emotional issues through tapping on meridian points while focusing on negative emotions, beliefs, and memories. EFT does not use drugs or distraction, but rather requires focusing on the problem while tapping. Suppressed emotions can surface during EFT but tapping helps provide relief. EFT has been effective for both psychological and physical issues and can be done remotely through online or phone sessions. It teaches self-application for managing new issues that may arise.
