Anxiety about starting a business:

"Fraeda facilitated a PSYCH-K "balance" that truly changed my life! It was like Ka-ZAM! I am a different person! The magic began immediately.

My initial problem started with me "thinking" that I had a fear of computers and the possibility of losing information etc that was hindering me from stepping out and starting my own business. In the session with Fraeda we decided to go through the "Instructions for Getting Life Lessons or Messages" from an issue or incident and what do you know. My new belief statement was...."I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR MYSELF"...Having just quit a job that I held for over 10 years in an industry that I have been in for 25 years. This was a BIG step. The phone rang minutes after the "balance" with a scholarship for me to train to be an EDGU teacher, and I left the following Monday for a week long training at Brietenbush. Soon after that I got my business license and formed an LLC and became "TRAVELJUDY". I now owned my own travel business and was teaching a beautiful movement class as well.
I AM Responsible for myself!!!!"

Attracting what I want in life:

"As a first time homeowner I found myself nervous about finding the right people to rent a portion of my house to, as they would be living with me and helping to pay my mortgage. I first made a long list of what I did and did not want these people to be like. However, I was having a hard time facing the searching and deciding process. I just felt worried and tired and didn't quite believe I could find people who would actually meet my long list of preferences.

That is the point I was at when I had a session with Fraeda. Fraeda, using PSYCH-K, helped me balance my inner beliefs so that I was open and believing I would find the perfect renters. I felt much calmer and more confident after working with Fraeda. After just 2 weeks of advertising I did find the perfect couple and have really enjoyed living with them for the last year. I think it was much easier to accept these people when I met them since working with Fraeda. Previously I would have doubted myself more and experienced a lot more turmoil over the whole thing. I am so grateful that Fraeda and PSYCH-K were there to help me.
Thank you Fraeda."

Death of a mother:

"EFT has helped me with many things- from physical complaints to deeply held emotional patterns to do with my mother's death when I was a child. Fraeda has helped me to start releasing these, which has lead at times to an amazing sense of unconditional love and joyousness. I would recommend Fraeda as a good guide to help anyone unravel their emotional layers that hold them back in life, she is very present, thorough and intelligent in her approach. Her great passion for EFT has lead her to be very good at helping people to help themselves with it."

Depression, anxiety and a "doom and gloom feeling":

"First, thank you so much! Many thanks for your help and dedication to the profession!

It is amazing how well I feel. I won't question it as I was very open and receptive to healing and dumping this "stuff"! So together we made quite a team [using EFT].

I definitely got my groove back and the shroud of doom and gloom are gone. [Even after 2 weeks] I still feel great...no short term high! No highs or lows..I am back to my bubbly self!

I am exited about working on my website and building the business-even came up with some creative thoughts on advertising! And, my cold is disappearing too!

I will most definitely refer anyone I can to you and sing praises about you--you are awesome.
Again many, many thanks"

Family issues and negative realationship patterns:

"I was a bit familiar with EFT and the idea of balancing one's energy and therefore dissolving emotional clutter through tapping, but I'd also heard it was so easy that 'anyone could do it.'

If it's so simple to learn for one's self, why would anyone pay an EFT practitioner to assist?

This question was answered when I was lead to Fraeda's website. I made an appointment and was surprised by how she listened to what I said and so quickly connected some dots that I had never been able to do for myself.

While in the increased emotional state, it was comforting to have Fraeda guiding me through the tapping process, bringing her own insights to the emotional release and rebalancing of my energy.

She had enough perspective and experience with EFT to help me release some old, painful limiting beliefs and create the pathway for new ones. The guidance was so valuable, I made another appointment."

Family issues and trauma:

"I've had more than a dozen sessions with Fraeda since last June. I really get a lot out of working with her. She listens and tracks what I say quite well and is very thorough in noting all relevant details of my topic for the session. She doesn't miss a thing. Fraeda uses my words and synthesizes the details appropriately. She is totally nonjudgmental and I feel very safe talking about anything with her. She is not afraid to be playful and has a great sense of humor. Fraeda is tenacious and persistent, two qualities that are essential to an EFT practitioner worth her salt.

In a recent session I was lost in my details and Fraeda honed in on an important phrase I had used and her choice for set up phrase was just the key I needed to unlock my jumble of thoughts and feelings. In that session I was able to release some really negative stuff that I have been carrying around since 1983 and which, by the way I had not told anyone I still harbored these deep and debilitating feelings for many many years.

In this session I experienced a profound breakthrough in understanding -- not just on the level of insight, but with her guidance, I was able to discover the essential kernel of my old beliefs at the center of my muddle, giving me clarity and a grasphold onto some inner ahha's that helped me make the mind-shift toward the inner wisdom I was seeking.
Thank You so much, Fraeda!"

Fear of public speaking:

"I worked with Fraeda at Lane Community College when Phi Theta Kappa’s chapter, Sigma Zeta had a wellness fair. Fraeda presented a workshop on Emotional Freedom Technique. At first I was skeptical. How could tapping and talking help to alleviate someone's inner most fears?
Fraeda began by explaining what it was and then showing us a short video clip. After the video was over she asked for a volunteer to be an example, I quickly raised my hand so that I could experience this firsthand. If it worked I would know it for sure, and after all I did have to speak in front of 4000 people in five months!
She asked me what I wanted to work on and I quickly said, “My fear of public speaking.” We discussed my fears and then she began the process. Throughout this she would check to see if my fear scale would lessen and sure enough it did. At the end I felt less anxiety ridden but the true test would come in April when I was on stage in front of that enormous crowd of people.
April has come and gone, and I would like you to know that I spoke in front of all those people and not one time did I get a twitter of fear or anxiety. I have never felt more confident in my ability to speak in front of a large group of people.
Thank you Fraeda and thank you EFT!
Sincerely,

Fear of rejection in business:

"I wanted to work on the issue of my fear of being rejected by my therapist colleagues if I came out to them as an energy healer and channeler. I was puzzled by this fear, and it was really blocking my energy and ability to move forward in my work and to integrate into my full self. Your questions were extremely helpful in pinpointing the issue. I felt your interest and intention to help me, and even though I was judging myself for the fear, I felt no judgment from you. I felt very safe throughout the process with you.
You made it easy to do the EFT practice. I was happy to simply follow along as you showed me the tapping pattern and said the phrases aloud. Even though I believed EFT was helpful, I didn't really think it would help ME. But it did. It's been over a month, and I feel free and open still, and my work is flourishing and the response from both colleagues and clients is wonderfully warm and supportive. I also found that clearing my fear of rejection had a ripple effect in my life. All my relationships have improved, my teaching has improved, and my work has gotten easier and even more enjoyable. That weird little tapping thing really works! Thank you so much for the session, and I look forward to clearing more layers with your help."

Fear of water:

Dear Fraeda,
Thank you so much for the EFT work you did with me about my fears about swimming in the ocean prior to my trip to the Big Island. As you may recall, we covered a LOT of aspects, especially fears of being stung, mauled and chomped on by all manner of sea creatures - particularly SHARKS! I am happy to report that I had a great time snorkeling along the coast of Kealakekua Bay, and that I felt completely comfortable in the water - no anxiety or hesitation at all! EFT is a powerful tool and you are so adept at wielding it! Mahalo!
Gratefully,

-Phyllis (Eugene, OR)

Healing old family beliefs

"Hi Fraeda,
I need to try to express here what an amazing affect your [PSYCH-K] healing has had in my life. Not only my life but it appears the work you did on me concerning family and what I’ll call ancestral issues has also created changes in my children, some of my siblings and my mother.

I came to you that day knowing I was at a place in my healing journey of needing to examine and address issues that had been passed down to me through my family’s beliefs. I have spent years working on myself and healed much, but still felt there was a big chunk in me that I hadn’t been able to get to.

You beautifully addressed this [with PSYCH-K] from the place of wanting to tap into some originating instances that have had negative, limiting effects on all my family members for at least 5 generations. Through your guidance we were able to pinpoint some specific situations and clear up those patterns from the place of origin. Little did I realize that doing that would also clear up the links and patterns as they affected my whole family.

Within a few days it became obviously apparent in phone conversations that something profound had also changed in my brother, and Mom. We were suddenly able to be more open with each other and more lovingly supportive. Something we have all wanted but just couldn’t do on this level before. My oldest daughter even wrote me a note without any conversation, just knowing I have been pursuing this, thanking me for the work I’m doing, as she noticed the shifts in herself in relation to other family members.

I can only imagine how many of my now distant relatives this may have had a positive affect on. It came out during our session that my father’s family was the major source of some specific negative conditioning, and he was one of 11 siblings.

Here it is almost 2 months later and the affects are still there. This has changed so much in my ability to truly express what is in my heart toward my family and their ability to more freely receive it, and respond back.

I realize and understand from my experience over these years that this is just another step in the continuation and layers of pursuing wholeness.

I’m looking forward to whatever the next healing opportunity with you may bring up for resolution. 'Thank you' is not enough !"

Job interview anxiety:

"I did a combination of PSYCH-K and EFT work with Fraeda when I was getting ready for an important job interview. I am an ESL teacher, and was going to interview for a job at the community college in our town. It was really my only hope of working in my field here, so the interview was crucial. I was afraid I had subconscious doubts about my weaknesses that would interfere with being as confident, articulate, and honest as I wanted to be. The PSYCH-K affirmation that came up was: "I can clearly see that I am doing my best and my best is good enough." We "balanced" for that belief , and then did EFT tapping to release other emotional concerns. From our visit until the actual interview, I tapped frequently to keep my attitude and confidence just right. I literally tapped on the bus on the way there.

I have had other interviews before, and in fact have a degree in Human Resource Development. It was clear to me that I sailed through with exactly the tone, the affect, the responses that I wanted them to have – that were both honest and inspiring, and that would make me irresistible. As I was leaving, I could tell by their expressions and voices that they would choose me, and they did. It has been a year and I am still teaching there."

Life-transitions and creating a business:

"Thank you in abundance for guiding me through EFT and assisting me in releasing what has been holding me back for a very long time. I have been practicing with the material you gave me and have been presented rich relational opportunities for addressing each belief right now. I have been experiencing what you referred to as the many layers of each issue or belief. I am continually amazed at the associations that I have made over time. Thanks to your gift of compassion and your teachings about staying with the practice on a daily basis, my life is changing!! I feel more relaxed, joyful, as the chronic anxieties about being around other people are beginning to fall away as I practice daily. I also see how working with you again would be of great benefit. Your gift of coming up with just the right phrases in relationship to beliefs that I have held has taken me to depths that I could not have gone to alone. I now am able to give thanks as well as understand why I have not been able to birth my new business. I also see how the process can only be traveled one step at a time!! Again and again, THANK YOU!!!!

Fraeda, I feel deeply blessed to have been able to experience your healing gifts. I promise to keep in touch and to let others know about you and your work!

Happy Joyous Fall Day!
With love and gratitude,"

Mother issues and spiritual connection:

"Dear Fraeda,

Now it is my turn to thank you for our session for me today.  We have traded sessions together on and off for more than 18 months. Here is my testimonial about our last session. Use it how you like.

Our session today proved to me beyond a doubt that you can certainly guide anyone through anything with your EFT skills.  

I was left with a caregiver from earliest infancy, my mother was preoccupied with working for my father in his medical practice, and I went to daycare in the '50's from age 3 until first grade, often sleeping overnight away from home. When my mother was no longer out of the home, she was mentally off in her own world, and emotionally distant and inaccessible to her children's needs, as she believed it was best to 'leave her children alone' to let them find their own way. I certainly felt angry and unloved by my mother throughout most of my life, and I avoided her, in an attempt to avoid the pain and disappointment of that all-important relationship. She is now nearing the end of her life, and I am faced with the reality that she will never be there for me, and that I must learn to accept her as she is and has always been. She did the best she could, and now I want to cultivate a gentleness and caring for myself that goes beyond the neglect and detachment of my childhood. In the EFT tapping session, these painful feelings softened and dissolved to create a spaciousness for remembrance of the Truth that real Love comes from Source and not from others. Now after the session I am softening towards my mother and towards myself.

Many people have unresolved mother issues from childhood, and when our mothers near the time of end of life, many unmet longings for mother nurturing arise in us.  I have recently witnessed and experienced my own mother's mental and physical decline, taking an unexpected course, stimulating shock, anger, sadness, disappointment and fear within me.  How very fortunate I am to have a skilled EFT practitioner and colleague like you to witness, participate and facilitate yet another layer and level of  my healing process around mother love issues in my life.

How straightforwardly, compassionately and unflinchingly you accompany my healing journey around these deep and primary mother/child issues.  Even when a mother is physically present in one's life,  many competing needs keep her from nurturing and caring for her child's fundamental needs for tender  affection, protection,  and caring.  Old unmet needs in the adult child foster anguish, bitterness and disappointment that erode our own belief in our self love, lovability, well being, self worth, and our sense of being anchored in mother love.  Our EFT session quickly brought old buried feelings to the surface to be re-examened and healed.

After a beginning EFT tapping round, 'Even though I have all these overwhelming feelings about my aging mother's decline, I deeply and completely love and accept myself",  an old belief surfaced that 'I had lost my old anchor (to my mother) which I never really had'.  After a flood  of tears of sadness and a welling up of fear, feeling unanchored, the truth became evident that my only real anchor that ever was or ever would be, is my anchor with  Source, beyond this flesh and these bones.  Within an hour, the anger, sadness and fear dissolved into the comforting remembrance of my true connection with Source, along with compassion and acceptance for my aging mother.

Fraeda, I am certain, that you can be present and skillful with anyone or any  issue that comes up.  I trust your skill with EFT, your compassionate presence,  careful listening,  and your unflappable centeredness as you work with me.  

I have the utmost confidence in you--to hear me accurately, to intuit and restate the  essence of  my issue as you accompany me easily with calm,  unruffled, through my stormy healing process.  I would recommend you most highly and confidently to anyone over any issue.  

You have arrived to become 'the practitioner's practitioner'.  Congratulations and thank you so much.

Your Colleague and friend,"

Maya, EFT practitioner (Eugene, OR)

Motherless Son: A dark cloud left my body:

I’m a male in my 60’s. A few years ago I got Gary Craig’s EFT DVD’s. I watched them, was impressed, and had some success on my own. EFT seemed so simple that I wondered why anyone needed sessions with a practitioner.

Recently, I saw information about motherless daughters. I read a list which described some of my feelings. Then I listened to an NFTS Interview with Fraeda Scholz about Motherless Daughters. Fraeda said the issues were basically the same for men and women. I decided to try a session with Fraeda.

In the first session Fraeda skillfully took what I was saying about my problems and led me through a few rounds of tapping. I was amazed at much more effective this was than my less skilled efforts had been.

One of my earliest memories was as a 2 years old, planning to run away from home because of the dangers. My plan failed and I grew up as the outsider in a family of three children. My father’s job took him out of town for much of the time. He always told me to take care of mom and the girls while he was gone.

My mother favored my two sisters and I definitely felt she didn’t want to have me, a son. I watched her hug them, encourage them, talk to them, while shunning me and neglecting me. I stayed out of the way as much as possible. I know that in her youth my mother had been neglected in favor of her brother. So now she seemed to hold a grudge against me and was giving almost all of her energy to her daughters to protect them from a similar fate as hers.

It didn’t take long for my sisters to figure out that they could treat me badly and get away with it. My mother seemed to blame me for everything. This blatant and extreme prejudice continued into adulthood. I never felt I had a mother.

Fraeda helped me see that this was a family pattern and didn't really have anything to do with who I Really Am. That as a child I was in a no-win situation. Then as an adult I had continued this old family pattern.

After a few rounds of tapping I felt some relief. Then Fraeda led me through another round and the phrase, “I’m caught in this family pattern and it’s not fair.” At that moment a dark cloud came out of my chest and floated across the room.

I haven’t been the same since then. A lot of feelings are dropping away, such as anger, sadness, and helplessness. I feel less trapped. My pattern has been with me all my life. Currently I feel like I’m in a transition from what I’ve been for over 60 years and what I can become.

I have more emotional freedom and I plan to have more sessions with Fraeda.

Moving forward in career

"First, I would like to thank you for assisting me.  When I heard you as a guest on Nicole Whitney's show, 'News for the Soul', I was not only intrigued with what you were sharing, but felt that you not only loved what you offer but there was a deep knowledge and level of professionalism and deep compassion, I had to call.  As a person who studies many different modalities and assisted methods of 'healing', I have also had wonderful success with EFT, with others.   There are times when one needs to seek another's assistance, one who is not emotionally involved and is able to listen and discern what is really being said and where it is coming from.  The TWO sessions that we have had together allowed me to tap (no pun intended) on areas of my life that were literally paralyzing me and causing me to 'self sabotage'.  Working with you allowed me to be able to identify and address/embrace memories that I was not consciously aware that were literally 'imprisoning' me.  YOU helped me to identify deep rooted emotions and beliefs that through 'fragmentation' have been affecting my life.  I realize that through self survival that the child in me separated and that there are parts of me that did not grow but I just kept hitting walls when I attempted this myself....I was only tapping the surface.  Through the process and your ability to listen and with intuitive insight, your 'healing' methods and the usage of EFT have been a catalyst of great clarity, calmness and providing healing through the merging of self(s).  This process has gifted me and allowed the sense of wholeness and a beginning to experience and embrace the knowing of self love, self acceptance and inner peace.  
I would like to share with you that I did in fact fill out an application for employment and although the emotions and anxieties went through the roof, I did it- thank goodness that I did it at home.  Mind you, I have not 'worked' a regular job in 7 years as I have devoted my full attention to providing spiritual guidance and assistance to others.  I began to panic when I could not remember dates and names and then the negative talking began.  I stopped and walked away from the table and began to tap on the emotion and was able to return to the table and move forward.  I would also like to share that I was very calm when I went in for the interview and actually took a test with very little anxiety or fear.  If I were to give you a 'suds' level, it was between 0 and 1.  There was a level of confidence and security and very little concern of the consequence.  I know that this is the beginning of searching for employment as a means to provide additional income and not of personal approval or of personal failure with my spiritual work.  The thought of not being able to be of service to others spiraled me into a deep despair and depression.  I felt as though I had failed myself and others and had to give this 'work' up.  Although, my mind kept saying that I did not fail and I could do both, something inside of me just crawled up and died.  What we uncovered while doing the work explained my emotional response and behavior.  I feel so much lighter and actually excited about going back out into the work force and moving forward to expand my spiritual work and services.  I have been making calls and setting appointments to discuss renting out space for clients in stores that provide similar services so I can offer one-on-one sessions and have classes again.  My confidence level has improved and I am now honoring myself, deliberately taking time for me, to work more with EFT and allow myself to dig deep when emotions arise and set up statements that not only release but also empower through using the 'choice' method.  The statements that haunted me for so many years no longer affect me emotionally and to be honest, there is more silence: a peaceful comforting silence.  I am truly looking forward to our next session.  Thank you!"

Trauma and abuse:

"My experience with EFT was very positive. During the session I felt some very old negative emotions dissolve away and be replaced with positive emotional memories. Fraeda was very insightful in helping me clearly identify the negative emotions and during the tapping session I felt a real change in my thinking. EFT didn't just change the way I felt but also my thinking and negative beliefs surrounding my issue. At the end of the session it felt like I left behind a box full of bad emotions that I will never have to see again. These were emotions I had been carrying around from several traumatic events I experienced in childhood (I am now over 50). I had tried to heal this during my life but was not able to until my session with Fraeda. I feel a great sense of relief and very grateful that EFT can work so quickly on ones issues."

Workshop participant:
"The other evening I had an opportunity to view a very informal and professionally conducted session of tapping by Fraeda. All in the circle of ten were new to each other that evening and this was the second time for two of the people to work in this kind of setting with her. After covering the basics of EFT and how to generally apply pressure to the tapping points it was time for individual work. One volunteer had a breathing issue that at first appeared to be more on just the physical plain. As time went on, however, Fraeda was able to dig into some underlying points from earlier in her childhood and pulled in some family issues as well. Both were on point and perfect for the volunteer. Fraeda was also able to handle multiple aspects of the experience as they emerged, bringing about the happy result of better breathing, less constriction in the chest, and a calm infusion of confidence for our volunteer. Another great job from start to finish."
