"I began having personal sessions with Karen to deal with the residual post-traumatic stress from a rape and sexual abuse that caused me to have nightmares. The personal tapping sessions have helped me to heal the trauma and to sleep the most peaceful sleep I have had in years."
"The tapping session Karen did with me was so professional and worked miracles. I was amazingly and non-characteristically calm for my conference workshop. I feel like a big weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I don't love public speaking but I feel I can now do it without feeling tormented."

"I have had a lot of therapy with very good therapists. Working with Karen along with my regular therapy has made a huge difference. Issues that stuck with me even though I understood them have been released! My personal growth has been accelerated! I really enjoy working with Karen and she brings lots of tools to help me.

"Karen has an excellent perception of people and is tactful and competent. She is positive, friendly, and truly caring."
"I have worked with Karen for several years. I sought her guidance for EFT tapping, but she has helped me in so many other ways to move past emotional and relationship issues. She is a wise, compassionate, and supportive guide who has given me the courage, strength, and inner wisdom to transform my life. Before working with Karen I felt blocked, stuck, and unable to move forward. During our work together she gave me the tools I needed to move forward to a better life. Now I can utilize those tools to better implement the results I am seeking."
"What Karen does is work with the individual to clear energy blocks in order to reach a higher frequency; a frequency that allows the individual freedom to make choices and take action in life without being restrained by doubts and fears."

Very grateful for the compassionate and wise approach you take. And so efficient! Transformation comes quickly and it lasts!"
"Before I began working with Karen, I had a great deal of anxiety, depression, and low confidence. I had been able to hide my issues for years which became a physical barrier to a happy life. I am now able to go through my life with confidence, focus, and little to no anxiety. Better yet, with the tools that Karen showed me, I can work on my own energy clearing any time I feel the need."
"Extremely gifted at what she does..."
"I have been given tools on how to let go of all of the things that had happened to me in my life that had caused me to shut myself down and close myself off from my family and friends. It feels amazing to have a whole new outlook on my life. Karen has been an integral part of my journey. She is genuine and supportive. She is caring and thoughtful. She is extremely gifted at what she does. It's amazing to see her in her element.
Because of Karen, I am now the person I always wanted to be, living the life I always knew I could. Thank you, Karen!"

“Karen is gifted at dialing in personally to help people in the class understand the material from a variety of viewpoints. EFT is simple, clear, powerful and anyone can feel a change immediately. It is a way to empower yourself and others."
"What a wonderful experience this course was. It combined learning specific techniques – and there are many – with personal work that demonstrated the depth of healing that results from this work of finding energy blockages and healing them, allowing the energy to flow freely. So many new perspectives, new tools, new understandings – from negative to positive and beyond!"
"What an inspiration! I learned to be open and receptive to EFT. My intention in accepting this course was to learn therapeutic techniques to treat PTSD in vets. The video and training presented proof of results. I'm already using EFT in my practice! Thank you!"
“I knew the basics of EFT before coming to the class, but this was my first real introduction to tapping. I gained a really full understanding of what it’s all about and the purpose. Tapping through the different spots, I felt instantly balanced and awake. It really got me to reflect on some deeper issues that are coming up for me from my past as well. I’m excited and feel inspired to heal those wounds of the past and claim back my energy. Thank you for a beautiful and healing class!!”

"Karen is an excellent teacher. She is dedicated to covering the course material, knowledgeable, provides ample opportunity for experiential learning, and offers valuable feedback in response to student questions. I enjoyed Karen's willingness to share her personal experience with these techniques and found her examples illuminating and helpful. It is apparent that Karen genuinely cares that her students understand the material and its application. It was a delight to meet Karen in person and a real treat to take her training. In addition to this experience enhancing the quality of the work I do in my private coaching practice, I experienced some breakthroughs in my own energy body! Thank you, Karen!"

"It seemed like nothing we did helped our daughter [16 years old], and we tried everything. We saw therapists (many), psychiatrists, hospitalizations, medications … As we worked with Karen, and she helped us navigate our way through our daughter’s needs, we found our child again. Through tapping, the layers of pain and trauma and fear and sadness were peeled away and what was revealed was a balanced, joyful child that was excited about life. …We will be forever grateful for Karen and this miracle of tapping for giving us our lives back."
“Karen is fantastic! She's engaging, has great stories, explains the information and points in multiple ways, is clear, and a total joy to take a class from."

"I highly recommend working with Karen. In one session, Karen helped remove a long-standing energetic block and opened my life to new possibilities. I had such a profound experience in one session that I could not imagine the need for a second session; I was wrong. The second session was as powerful as the first. By removing the energetic blockades that had permeated my life since childhood, I am now more clear, focused, and able to move forward with confidence."

"I was experiencing a paralyzing episode of depression due to recent emotional trauma. During our work together, Karen helped me neutralize this depression and recognize a group of issues and contributing problems that surrounded this major trauma. She also just listened to me in an attentive, caring, and totally professional way. Aside from the tapping, it was wonderful to simply be in her presence. I feel like a new person now. I am happy and I feel like I have all the tools I need to continue to get happier and happier. I can't recommend her services highly enough. Thank you, Karen, for helping me in my time of need."
"Karen really cares for others and is truly interested in helping you be your best."

"Two years ago, at my lowest low, I had my first EFT session with Karen Aquinas. Six sessions and a month later, I left her office feeling like I had a new lease on life. I had new tools for helping myself, my spirit was lifted, and I was inspired and excited about everything Karen taught me.
I had to reach out to Karen recently to let her know- thanks to all her help, my life is utterly transformed. In the last two years, I have shed so many things that no longer serve me. I changed careers, attracted wonderful friends and collaborators, started a new side business, and best of all, I know myself and my essence as happiness and love. There are no adequate words of thanks to Karen for her professionalism, expertise, and caring. I recommend Karen’s services to anyone who is ready for a major life upgrade. Thank you and bless you, Karen."

"Such amazing energy ..."
“I walked in with an interest, but very little knowledge or experience with energy work. Karen has such amazing energy, and such skill at teaching - that I am walking out of this course with confidence that I am able to use Tapping to make a difference in my life, and in the lives of those around me. Thank you for an extraordinary 6 hours!”
"It is hard for me to conjure the state I was in when we began our work together. [1 yr. ago] My present experience is so different. No anxiety to speak of and if it does arise I immediately check in with my thoughts and go through a query process adapted from you. I learned from you there is nothing I cannot handle. Feels great to be relieved of useless fear and worry."

"... the results were immediate."
I decided on EFT sessions because of persistent negative self-talk, doubt, and low-self esteem issues that seemed to dominate every single thing I did in my life. I've tried counseling, yoga, mediation, everything. And while all of it helped a little bit, I felt like I had something blocking me.
I came across Karen's group EFT sessions back in 2019. Right from the start, I was impressed with her intuitive power, her kindness, her open personality. And as weird as it may seem to be sitting in a circle, tapping surrounded by strangers, I walked away feeling lighter. I knew there was something to it.
So when I decided enough is enough, Karen Aquinas was the obvious choice and I booked private EFT sessions. Due to COVID, we had the sessions via ZOOM. And it did not hinder the effectiveness of the sessions. She taps, she talks and I followed her lead.
Karen demonstrated a unique ability to know what I needed. Even when I wasn't certain how to word certain things, she picked up on what needed to be done. And the results were immediate.
Thanks to Karen, the annoying, negative, self-talk stopped. I've managed to set goals and began working toward them without nagging self-doubt talking me down to a point where I gave up before I even started. I am glad I gave Karen and EFT a chance.
