TFT is a self-treatment developed by Dr. Roger Callahan. Courses are taught by Dr. Caroline Sakai. She has been practicing TFT, and conducting professional courses for health professionals since 1998. Dr. Sakai brings to her training courses her years of experience as a therapist, driven by her lifelong passion to help others to thrive and have a meaningful, more joyful life. Her goal has been to empower people to enhance their functioning and optimize their health through the most efficient modalities, and to utilize methods which clients can practice themselves whenever feasible.
TFT has been used effectively by those working with people dealing with pain, phobias, anxiety, peak performance issues, procrastination, trauma, panic, anger, compulsions, and many other issues. These courses are designed for health care professionals and non-health care professionals. Courses for different groups can also be customized to address specific issues.
Thought Field Therapy Inc. has been approved by NBCC as an Approved Continuing Education Provider, ACEP #6269. Thought Field Therapy, Inc. is solely responsible for all aspects of the programs.
She has published articles on TFT (Journal of Clinical Psychology, October 2001), EMDR (Psychotherapy, Fall 1997; International Journal of Stress Management, 2004) and domestic abuse (Families in Society, November 1991). Dr. Sakai has also written on major depression and personality disorders, anxiety and panic disorder.
Dr. Sakai currently is in full time private practice in Honolulu where she does individual therapy with adults, children and adolescents, couples and family therapy, as well as consultations. She teaches seminars and courses in Thought Field Therapy, and she continuously improves her methods helping others learn TFT and use it effectively.
In the gut-wrenching stories of patients told by psychologist Dr. Caroline Sakai in this riveting book, you’ll see the full range of human misery and how Thought Field Therapy has helped in their recoveries.
Stories range from that of Josh, suicidal after fighting depression for years to Angelique, whose entire village was slaughtered during the Rwandan genocide. Yet both Josh and Angelique, as well as two dozen others whose cases are told in fascinating detail, recovered completely.
The remarkable cure that worked so well for them is called Thought Field Therapy or TFT. It’s often called “tapping” since it involves tapping with the fingertips on acupuncture points. A recent group of studies has shown that TFT is phenomenally effective at treating the symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder, as well as anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions.
Dr. Sakai has conducted much research into TFT, including several randomized controlled trials. She provides an expert introduction to tapping for beginners, as well as concluding with a section that shows professionals how to get the best results from TFT. It shows how TFT can promote post traumatic growth, the personal transformation that can result from traumatic experiences. It also shows how TFT can be used to promote resilience, the qualities that enable us to recover from life’s inevitable challenges.
