Picture Tapping
The Picture Tapping Technique (PTT) combines Emotional Freedom Technique and Art Therapy.
While Basic EFT asks us to get as specific as possible about our issues, PTT is effective with problems that more general. Dr. Reiff is one of a handful of practitioners in the US with training in this technique.
PTT harnesses the power of metaphor and imagination to release problems in a painless and indirect way. Therefore, it allows disclosures that are difficult to express either verbally or by using other modalities. In PTT the pictures are hand drawn by the client.
Hand Drawing Allows us to Access the Subconscious
This technique has nothing to do with photographs; the use of hand drawings allows direct access to the subconscious–where all issues are stored and where their healing takes place. The pictures are not evaluated or discussed or interpreted in any way. The practitioner does not even have to be aware of what the issue is for the client.
