INGRID DINTER, HEALING NOW
EFT Coaching and Consulting Services
Thank you for your interest in working with me as a client for EFT coaching.
Our work together will include a shared understanding of what you hope to accomplish and agreements for supporting those outcomes. Although I will share my skills and abilities to support your growth and personal development, my work with you is only a resource. As an intentional and conscious participant in your growth, you will ultimately take all responsibility for and actions related to furthering your life journey.
As part of my practice, I offer a type of energy therapy identified as Emotional Freedom Technique ("EFT"). EFT appears to have promising mental, spiritual, and physical health benefits but has yet to be fully researched by the Western academic, medical, and psychological communities. EFT is a relatively new healing approach and the extent of its effectiveness, as well as its risks and benefits, are not fully known. The prevailing premise is that EFT uses the ancient Chinese meridian system to relieve emotional stress and physiological pain and it balances the energy system with a gentle tapping procedure which stimulates designated meridian end points on the face and body.
By signing this document you understand that EFT could be considered experimental. If you ever have questions or concerns about the nature of the theories and methods I use, including EFT, please feel free to ask me for further resources or references.
As a life coach and practitioner of EFT, I will provide you with the services described in the attached Description of Services which is incorporated herein by reference and made part of this Disclosure Statement and Informed Consent. Any methods I use, including EFT, are considered alternative or complementary to healing arts that are licensed by the State of New Hampshire.
I am not a psychotherapist, a registered or licensed counselor, a licensed physician nor are my services licensed by the State of New Hampshire. I am registered as an alternative provider with the Board of Mental Health Practice in the State of New Hampshire; however, this Board has not oversight over my practice.
Please be advised that in our work together emotional or physical sensations or additional unresolved memories may surface which could be perceived as negative side effects. It is possible to experience some emotional distress and physical sensations related to prior life experiences. The clinical reports from energy therapies such as EFT show no additional side-effects when used appropriately. Emotions may continue to arise after a session and you are encouraged to discuss such emotions with me. In addition, previously vivid or traumatic memories may fade. This could adversely impact your ability to provide detailed legal testimony regarding a traumatic incident.
You agree to take full responsibility for your self-care in the, emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual dimensions of your life.
Please be advised that EFT is not used to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or psychological/mental health disorder. Consequently, EFT sessions do not provide medical diagnoses nor do they offer cures; they do not replace health care from medical professionals.
You agree to consult with your health care provider for any specific medical problems. If you ever have any concerns about the nature of your sessions, please feel free to discuss them with me.
