A Therapist’s Take on EFT Tapping: Does It Really Work? with Kristine Edwards What does a licensed therapist really think about EFT tapping? In this episode of the Wildly Wealthy Woman Podcast, Jackie sits down with former Tapping School student and licensed mental health therapist Kristine Edwards to talk about how tapping went from something Kristine was skeptical about to becoming a cornerstone of both her personal practice and the work she does with clients. Kristine spent more than 20 years working in HR and corporate America before reaching a point where she knew something had to change. She was successful, capable, and accomplished—but exhausted from constantly holding everything together. Then tapping found its way back into her life. After joining Tapping School, Kristine began incorporating EFT tapping alongside her existing therapeutic and coaching tools. Today, she uses tapping with professional, high-achieving women to help them move from what she beautifully calls “bracing to breathing.” In this conversation, Jackie and Kristine explore why tapping can be such a powerful complement to traditional therapy and coaching, how practitioners can use it to support their own nervous systems, and why you don't have to abandon the modalities you already use to make tapping part of your work. In this episode, you'll hear: Kristine's journey from corporate HR executive to therapist, coach, and “wayfinder” for women Why she initially thought tapping looked strange—and what changed her mind A therapist's perspective on EFT tapping and why it can work so quickly How Kristine incorporates tapping alongside traditional therapy and coaching modalities The difference between clinical EFT and coaching-based tapping Why therapists, counselors, coaches, and healers may benefit from learning tapping What compassion fatigue can look and feel like for helping professionals How tapping can help practitioners regulate themselves instead of carrying their clients' emotions home Why Kristine uses tapping almost every morning How tapping can support burnout, anxiety, limiting beliefs, confidence, and emotional regulation How to integrate tapping into an existing therapy, coaching, wellness, or healing practice Why you don't need to know everything before you begin Kristine shares one of my favorite reminders from this conversation: “Imperfect practice is better than no practice.” Tapping doesn't have to replace what you're already doing. It can become another tool in your toolbox—a practice you reach for before a client session, after a difficult conversation, when you're feeling overwhelmed, or when you simply need to come back to yourself.
