Evolving Thought Field Therapy (EvTFT) provides mental health clinicians with an innovative psychotherapy model for the treatment of trauma and PTSD using meridian based psychotherapy methods. With roots in clinical psychology, applied kinesiology, and eastern medicine with an overlay of western science, EvTFT utilizes feedback from the acupuncture meridian system to alleviate emotional disturbance and develop well-being. The resulting theraputic effects are remarkably quick and fundamentally thorough.

In addition to trauma, this highly effective energy psychology can be utilized to treat a broad range of psychopathologies. The BDB Group has pioneered EvTFT's breakthrough approaches for anxiety, panic disorder and phobia, addictive and compulsive conditions, and the non-abreactive treatment of the dissociative disorders.

The challenge of any new technique is its integration into a psychotherapist's conceptual framework and everyday practice. By providing a supportive, didactic and interactive framework, we make sure that you know what you are doing, not just what to do. EvTFT inegrates well with all modalities of psychotherapy from psychodynamic to cognitive-behavioral and family systems. Many EvTFT techniques can be interwoven with other trauma models for more powerful treatment effects.
