Carmen Edwards - Certified EFT Practitioner
After practicing as a licensed professional counselor for more than 20 years and thinking I was retired for good in 2009, I have rekindled an old commitment to help others and now work as a support and wellness coach.
That commitment is also a passion. It is a burning desire within me to support and teach women as they journey toward empowerment and transformation. That commitment supports my desire to help and encourage women as they work through the barrage of blocks and repeated patterns that hold them back during their personal journeys.
Early in my career as a psychotherapist, I recognized an element was missing that was not alleviated by talking about and being aware of a problem. I realized that embedded in the client's energy system and body were issues that no amount of talking could dislodge. So I began exploring energy healing and implemented my new knowledge in the form of hands-on-healing within my practice.
Now I find that the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is an even better solution than hands-on-healing for helping others because it is interactive, easy to learn, and easy to do on one's own. EFT allows both client and practitioner to work together, while both do the “tapping” that is at the heart of EFT. Tapping not only disrupts negative energy in the energy system, it clears a path to uncover in-depth issues in a nonthreatening way. Through tapping, EFT is a safe and nonthreatening way to deal with, and ultimately release negative emotions.
In addition to EFT, I am proficient in Matrix Reimprinting. This is a technique that takes EFT to a whole other level. It allows for the client to tap on his or her younger self that experienced a trauma. After tapping on the younger self and relieving the energy of the trauma, a new picture can be reimprinted into one of empowerment. In so doing, the trauma no longer has an impact or influence on the client’s life.
In 1995 I created Mindful Energetics, a unique approach to well-being, emphasizing how our mental and emotional energies affect our overall wellness and support unwanted and repeated patterns that obstruct our lives. Today, EFT is one of the many aspects included in my approach to energy healing. I have trained with The Healing Touch Program, an international, multi-level educational program in energy-based medicine therapy. I also studied with Peggy Huddleston, founder of "Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster," a guide to a mind/ body approach to dealing with surgery and other procedures, such as chemotherapy or radiation.

Carmen is someone I consider a wise and compassionate coach and
counselor. Her wisdom and thoughtful guidance have given strength to
discover new paths to navigate many of life’s rapids. She has used and
uses a variety of coaching methods—from energy work to tapping to
careful listening—to advise and coach her clients through rough waters.
She continually works to better herself and stay at the forefront of her craft
and expertise. I’m a better person because of the work she has guided me
to do for myself. I fully believe that she helps all her clients in significant
ways to make their lives happier and more fulfilled.
