Hi
Has anyone used tapping, either themselves, or via a pro, to treat their kids emotional issues. My daughter has a HUGE issue with being left alone and a colleague at work suggested tapping. Apparently it get amazing results. Anyone have any experience of it? Thanks

How old is she? We found the best way we were able to help ds with his issues (emotions, anxiety and eating) was working with a clinical psychologist :)

Tapping is nonsense. You need a clinical psychologist as suggested above.

Placebo effect.
What have you got to lose? Money, time and a delay in getting proper treatment.
