Hi,



Someone contacted me today, in relation to an extremely concerning
situation.



Her 6 year old daughter is being molested by her father - the parents are no
longer together. The daughter was very symptomatic and was having
difficulties at school and in general.



The mom learned about EFT and used it with her daughter, and taught her how
to use EFT herself.



The daughter then improved a great deal, except when she had to visit her
father (CPS was investigating but had not yet drawn any conclusions and
visits were still happening).



The mom would have her tap before she went and after she went and the little
girl would tap herself as needed, to help her to process any trauma and deal
with the symptoms.



As a result the daughter vastly improved.



As a result of this improvement, CPS decided that the daughter can not have
been being abused, because she was doing well, was not displaying symptoms
of trauma, and talked about the abuse without a great deal of emotion.



CPS then decided that, although they believe that the mom believes abuse is
occurring that her fear about it is being transferred to the daughter and is
what is causing her to talk about abuse. They feel that this is harming the
daughter and so have removed the child from her mother's care and instead
placed her with the father.



The mom has explained to them about EFT but they refuse to believe that it
could create such dramatic effects and that even if it could, that a mom
with only high school education could be skilled enough with it, or that a 6
year old child could use it herself and obtain good results.



The mom has contacted me with the request below:



I am not asking you to take sides because that would be unfair because you
only have my side. The professionals in my situation simply do not
believe me nor do they believe my daughter. I believe that this is because
of who I am and possible other prejudices. A single parent of modest
income with only a high school education does not register with them but it
dawned on me that a Professional with experience using EFT and who knows
exactly what EFT can do is a totally different story. This is why I am
writing you because I need help and my daughter needs help. Is it possible
that you could send me a letter with you letterhead and/or professional
credentials answering the following questions:



1. Could EFT have helped my daughter in the miraculous way that I have
described in this email?



2. Through the constant and regular use of EFT, could a child be able to
function as a seeming normal child while still experiencing abuse if EFT is
used after abuse episodes?



3. Is it possible for a child who has been the repeated victim of sexual
and psychological abuse speak about this abuse as if she is speaking about
"spilt milk" as described by one of her Therapists?



4. Is it possible for a child to not exihibit any or very minimal fear and
discomfort around her father in public, even if he abuses her behind closed
doors, with the constant and regular use of EFT?



5. Is it possible for a single mother with only a high school education to
learn to administer EFT effectively to her child and is it also possible for
a 6 year old child to learn how to self-administer EFT?



If along with answering these very important questions, you could give any
details about your own professional experience using EFT, what problems you
have successfully used EFT for, give all of you professional credentials,
anything published whether it is related to EFT or not, or anything else
which will make these Professionals that I am dealing with who refuse to
even consider to investigate the promise of EFT, to at least investigate
EFT in the best interest of my daughter. I know that the hardest words for
most Professionals are to say " I may have made a mistake or misdiagnosed
this situation entirely", but that it tragically what has happened here and
it is a 6 year old child who has been suffering for so long because of the
mistakes of so many "experts" who refuse to "think outside of the box".



I am asking that any credentialed therapists or other practitioners who use
EFT in their practice, who are interested in helping provide a supportive
letter that will not of course attest to whether this child has been abused
or not but rather talk about the effectiveness of EFT in such a situation,
contact me and I can, with her permission, forward the woman's name and
mailing address so that letters can be sent to her that may be useful.



I know that everyone is busy, but it would only take a few minutes to write
something up and send it off. Please take a moment and think about what if
it were your child, or a child that you care about.



I am thinking it may be especially helpful to hear from people who work with
trauma. What I find interesting is that some of what they are disbelieving
i.e. that a child could not exhibit fear or only minimal fear or discomfort
around her father in public, or for a child to not display emotion when
discussing abuse - that is entirely possible for any child who is being
abused, regardless of whether or not EFT has been used. It's called
dissociation and would not be so unusual for such a thing to occur, and is
one of the reasons that much of the time sexual abuse is not detected,
sometimes even by others living in the same home.



Take care,



Carol Ann Rowland, MSW, RSW
