Thought Field Therapy in Glasgow Thought Field Therapy (TFT) is a relatively new technique for the rapid elimination of most types of emotional distress. It has an extremely high rate of success when used to treat emotional stressors including phobias, anxiety, general stress, obsession/compulsion
and addiction.
TFT was invented and developed by Roger Callahan, one of America's most experienced clinical psychologists. He used conventional therapies like behaviour therapy for 30 years but was dissatisfied with the results and became interested in an alternative
therapy called Applied Kinesiology (AK) which addresses the body's meridian system to correct disorders.
In 1979 he was treating a patient called Mary who had a water phobia. After 18 months of treatment, including hypnosis and behaviour therapy, Mary hadn't improved. He knew Mary described her fear as being felt in the stomach and he knew that the stomach
meridian passed beneath both eyes. As Mary thought of her fear, he tapped beneath one of her eyes and the phobia vanished and stayed away to this day, more than 25 years later.
Callahan repeated this technique with other sufferers and found that it only worked in a minority of patients. However, years of research, experimentation and further development followed producing what we now know as Thought Field Therapy.
Thought Field Therapy is based on a new theory about the cause of negative emotion. Conventional medicine assumes that the mind and brain are in the purely physical realm and that emotional problems like depression and anxiety are caused by chemical
abnormalities in the brain which can only be corrected by drugs or surgery. For decades there has been the alternative view that the mind and the physical brain are separate. Along with many others, Dr Callahan contends that the mind is more linked
to field effects generated whenever a thought is triggered. According to his theory, when we think of a problem, we tune into a part of this field effect referred to as a Thought Field. Dr Callahan believes negative emotions are caused by precise
information patterns in Thought Fields which he terms "perturbations". By tapping on the correct meridian points in the right sequence, the perturbations are inactivated and the negative emotion disappears.
