The CDC states that at least one in five Americans struggles with serious mental health issues every year, and recently, the CDC states that the number one emotional problem is unresolved trauma/PTSD. Consequently, Tennessee is in the top 10 experiencing opioid deaths and suicides in increase each year!
On any given day, hospitals throughout the US encounter, but do not address, patients who PRIMARILY suffer from emotional, mental, or addictive issues.
One of my professors, Dr. van der Kolk, an internationally recognized researcher of Harvard University, estimates that 67.8% of US children have at least one serious childhood trauma that has not been addressed. To extrapolate with worldwide perspective, unresolved trauma including Ukraine and the Middle East, estimates to over 1 billion children traumatized every year!
Fortunately, NOW effective treatments are available in Energy Psychology, EP. Several years ago, and an associate of mine in EP, Dr. Carolyn Sakai traveled to Rwanda in 2006 providing treatment to survivors of ethnic cleansing. This small group of psychologists found 188 children who lost their families, many had witnessed their parents being brutally slaughtered and continued to experience severe symptoms of PTSD, including difficulty concentrating, flashbacks, nightmares, bedwetting, and numerous traumatic behaviors. The psychologists primarily focused on 50 teenagers who were experiencing the greatest amount of trauma scoring very high on a standardized trauma symptom inventory which diagnosed all of them with PTSD.
This small team of psychologists provided a single treatment of energy psychology that lasted from 20 to 60 minutes combined with a few minutes of relaxation training. After the treatments, 47 of the 50 adolescents fell below the PTSD range of trauma, and today none of the 50 are diagnosed with PTSD. Similar treatments in different parts of the world have seen no more than 6% return of any signs of trauma.
I personally have witnessed the effectiveness of this healing method by participating in over a dozen missionary trips to Guatemala, with its 300 orphanages. This has been the destination point for the Hendersonville Rotary Club’s medical missionary teams for numerous years. Coupled with the treatment for children and several adults in these orphanages, I have taught psychologist at three universities 21 steps in trauma tx, which is now a U S trademark entitled, GUTT: Guatemala Urgent Trauma Treatment. This trauma tx template has also been translated into Spanish and is available to all who request a copy.
The beginnings of EP were in the early 90s with the discovery of Ötzi the Iceman, a well-preserved natural mummy who lived around 3300 BC, provided the catalyst for our understanding of ourselves as holistic people with intrinsic connections of mind, body, soul, and emotions. Experts in the fields of science/psychology, further documented 360 acupoints with 14 meridians and several chakras within the human body.
The healing of emotions in (EP), EMDR as well, utilize the most recognized EP technique, EFT (emotional freedom technique), which stimulates the acupoints on the skin, and signals the amygdala, full of a myriad of strong emotions and feelings, which instantaneously neutralizes these feelings and often creates for the first time neuroplasticity, the forming of new brain cells in the hippocampus, resulting in a mild memory of the past and no lingering trauma! The patient’s Suds (Subjective unit of disturbance) are often at #10, now down to 1 or 2, and sometimes zero, within a single therapeutic intervention! It is no wonder that the newly discovered ancient treatment is referred to as the “the new emotional penicillin” which is likely to dramatically change healing forever for the millions plagued with trauma.
