Tracy Kenela on Emotional Freedom Technique
What do you do if you suffer from anxiety and talk therapy isn’t enough? In this episode of “Woman Worriers,” Annapolis-based therapist Elizabeth Cush and Tracy Kenela, a counselor from Olympia, Washington, discuss how the Emotional Freedom Technique and hypnotherapy might help you get unstuck.
“When your energy about something is blocked, that is really when your emotions get a little more intense.”
Show Notes:
Talk therapy—cognitive therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and other approaches—can be enormously useful in helping you deal with worry, stress and overwhelm. But what if you’ve tried some sessions of talk therapy and your anxiety still stands in the way of doing the things you want to do, whether it’s speaking in public or just driving a car. In this episode of Woman Worriers, therapist Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., welcomes Tracy Kenela, LMHC, an advanced clinical hypnotherapist and host of the Calming the Chaos podcast, for a discussion about using Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and hypnotherapy—that is, hypnosis for healing—together with talk therapy to change your energy and uncover hidden insights to help you live the life you want.
