Somatic Tapping (formerly UpLifting EFT) offers a comprehensive training program on Tapping, a somatic technique that helps clients reduce negative symptoms and increase positive outcomes. The program is suitable for medical professionals from various fields who want to add Tapping to their practice. The program is founded by Diana Sturm, a licensed professional counselor and certified Tapping trainer. All trainings are conducted on Zoom.
One of the unique features of the program is the practicums and group exercises, which provide participants with the opportunity to experience their own emotional release and learn from the client’s perspective. This approach ensures that participants are equipped to use Tapping skills with their clients immediately after completing the training.
To register for the program, participants need to join the email list and provide proof of their license, state or province of license, or a personal NPI number. Please note that this program is only available to licensed professionals.
Target Audiences: Psychotherapists, Mental Health Counselors, Social Workers, Psychologists, Licensed Professional Counselors, School Counselors, Psychiatrists, Nurses, Speech Language Pathologists, Marriage and Family Therapists, Substance Abuse Counselors, Occupational Therapists, Dentists, Medical Doctors, Physical Therapists.
Coming Soon! All classes listed here are LIVE, interactive classes. Currently this same course is being developed as an online, on demand course for asynchronous training. The online course will NOT offer practicums or opportunities to ask questions and as a result will have fewer CE hours.
