Tap into Energy, Focus & Flow. . .
...Feel calm, capable and ready to work with your ADHD
eft tapping for adhd symptoms
Living with ADHD in a world not built for your brain means carrying a constant undercurrent of stress, shame, and stuckness. Over time, it piles up, clouding your focus, draining your energy, and making even simple tasks feel impossible.
When emotions run high, your brain’s planning and doing systems temporarily go offline. For ADHDers, who feel everything more intensely, it’s even harder to access these skills we’re told to “just use.”
EFT Tapping helps quiet your "feeling brain," making space for your "thinking/doing brain" to come back online.

FAQs
What is EFT Tapping? EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), otherwise known as "tapping" is a ADHD-friendly intervention that reduces feelings of resistance and clears negativity; allowing you to feel freer, lighter and more empowered. EFT tapping is used to treat many physical and psychological issues. It combines principles from acupressure (body) and psychology (mind) to reduce stress and clear emotional obstacles. By tapping on key acupressure points while focusing on a problem or emotionally charged topic; you can calm yourself down. In turn, this emotional relief makes space for creative problem-solving (which ADHDers are so good at!) and clarity around a way forward.
Can I tap on my own? Once you know how, this technique is simple enough for you to use on your own as an effective self-help tool to gain enough clarity and calm so that you can move forward with your intentions. EFT therapy, on the other hand, offers a deeper, trauma-informed healing process, whereby a licensed EFT practitioner holds a processing space for you to heal from past experiences, emotions and beliefs. To heal from these deeper issues, it is recommended to work with a trained and certified EFT practitioner.
Is EFT tapping suitable for someone with ADHD? EFT tapping is a very ADHD-friendly technique! It can give quick and lasting results, and ADHD brains thrive on fast results. Just a few rounds of tapping can get you unstuck or ease distress from big emotions, overthinking or anxiety - all common bedfellows of ADHD. Moreover, beneath symptoms like anxiety, obsessive thinking and shame, lie deep but false beliefs about ourselves. We are born without any assumptions about ourselves, but as we grow, things happen, and without the wisdom of lief experience or the skill of self-compassion, the conclusions we come to about ourselves, other people and life are inaccurate to say the least! When we believe these false truths, we confine ourselves and cut off future possibilities. That's how they become limiting beliefs. If you’ve repeatedly been told you are lazy, don’t try hard enough or that you “have so much potential if only you would …”, you begin to believe that you are not good enough. You might stop trying or believing that it's even possible to succeed. Tapping can expose and resolve these thoughts, so that you can have clear access to your true potential.

What happens in a typical EFT Tapping session? 1. We meet online or in my ADHD clinic, either option is a safe and confidential space. 2. I begin by listening to your story, helping you pinpoint the obstacles and establishing a level of distress that the problem is causing you, on a scale of 1-10. 3. And then the tapping begins, where I guide you to overcome your problem: “Even though I feel overwhelmed with all I have to do today, I accept how I feel.” “Even though I really don’t want to study for this test, I am still smart.” “Even though I feel ashamed of how little I’ve accomplished, I know I am worthy of love.” These are examples of setup statements that “bookend” your problem with a balancing statement. We start with 3 of these statements tapping on a meridian point on the side of your hand. Don’t worry! We do it together; all you have to do is copy me and repeat what I say.
