Leslie has really helped me out of what has felt like an impossible place.
"As an adult I have felt very stuck in my past that contained many intense situations, confusion, anxiety and abuse. I have often felt completely lost and numb to myself, without a safe place to heal and without knowing how to begin to live again. My EFT sessions with Leslie are a miracle and a gift from God. Sometimes we don't know what our prayers really are until they are answered. In between sessions, I now have easy to apply tools to help me anytime, anywhere. I whole-heartedly recommend EFT with Leslie to anyone that is ready to experience more confidence, beauty, peace and joy in their life!"  K.S.

Cleaning out mental clutter

To use my own words while using tapping technique to not accept or give energy to any physical invasion or discomfort and to look at the end goal rather than the bumps along the way of my journey.
