From the Back Cover

A revolution is brewing in modern psychology, and it has already changed the way that hundreds of therapists have treated thousands of their clients. Remarkably, there is currently a cutting-edge treatment you can now use on your own to conquer emotional distress, including phobias, anxiety, stress, compulsions, and addictions.

This breakthrough in treatment is called Thought Field Therapy (TFT), and it has been developed and perfected over the last twenty years. Now for the first time the founder and top authority on TFT, Dr. Roger Callahan, shares his incredibly simple yet effective method with the general public. In Tapping the Healer Within, you'll find the tools to improve your life now and in the future. TFT can provide emotional renewal quickly and safely, with no side effects and without having to go through years of therapy.

TFT is based on the time-honored principles of both contemporary clinical psychology and Chinese medicine, which theorizes that energy flows along meridians in the body. When energy is blocked, a person becomes ill. TFT is a drug-free method of literally tapping into that energy and clearing up blockages--without using acupuncture needles or any other invasive means. You can use the method in the privacy of your own home and experience transformative healing within minutes.

While TFT is new to many general readers, more and more health-care professionals are embracing it every day and using it to help patients overcome sometimes deeply entrenched emotional problems. True stories from Dr. Callahan's practice illustrate how TFT has helped people with a wide variety of issues.

By reading Tapping the Healer Within, you'll quickly and easily learn to use this powerful method for yourself and discover how TFT can change your life for the better.

Reviews

In connection with his The Five Minute Phobia Cure, Callahan has appeared on television with Regis Philbin, Tom Snyder and Leeza Gibbons, successfully working with patients suffering from all stripes of phobias. Now he makes the startling claim that psychological problems can be treated with a sequence of movements and taps on various body parts that correspond to meridians used in acupuncture. Backed by a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Syracuse University, Callahan theorizes that emotional distress corresponds to a "thought field" disturbance that can be corrected by simply balancing the field's energy. Nearly a third of the book is given over to physical formulas for dealing with specific ailments: phobias, addictions, trauma, anxiety, stress, fear, depression, pain, obsession. Replete with cases of immediate, permanent cures that sound nothing short of miraculous, Callahan mixes his scientific evidence with a confident, promotional toneAand preemptive explanations for instances when his trademarked technique (Thought Field Therapy) doesn't work. Illus. not seen by PW. Agent, Jane Dystel. (Jan. 15) Forecast: Promising "emotional problems eliminated in minutes" and claiming a success rate of 80%, this book is sure to arouse controversy among traditional therapists that may spur sales.
