Curious About Tapping?
Each month I offer a free group tapping session on Zoom. Generally, the first Friday of the month at 3 pm Central Time. Zoom link is provided to current members of the mailing list. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to join the mailing list. Don’t worry, I won’t bombard you mailbox. You’ll get an intro series of emails – one about every 3-4 days for a couple of weeks and then after that, you’ll receive announcements for group tapping, new classes or other special events from time to time.
Current Classes:
Four online, asynchronous classes are available on Somatic Tapping. This is a series where students must start with class 1 before moving to the next class. Click on “Additional information” for more information on each class.

Class 1 introduces providers to tapping for relaxation and resourcing. It includes history of tapping and of the acceptance process for somatic techniques. Additional information
2.25 CE hours = $40 Introductory price

Class 2 focuses on how emotions can be held in the body. This is very effective for clients who have problems identifying emotions or who suppress them. Additional information
3.0 CE hours = $105

Class 3 addresses negative cognitions/beliefs and how to release them. It also teaches when to add in positive affirmations. Additional information
2.0 CE hours = $70

Class 4 looks at releasing the emotional “charge” from upsetting events & trauma in a gentle way that prevents retraumatizing the client. Additional information
3.5 CE hours = $122
All of the above online classes include English captions as well as demonstrations, tap along videos, and homework for the student. These classes work best on Google Chrome, but may also work on other browsers. After completing the classes, students have the option of participating in live practicums on Zoom and in supervision. These provide additional training on using the techniques and have separate charges. Additional information on practicums and supervision is provided to students after they complete class 4.

Cancellation Policy
Live Classes
If I cannot make it to a live Zoom training I have registered for and give notice at least 24 hours before a registered class, I can transfer to a different date offered by Diana Sturm, LPC one time without penalty or I can send someone in my place. If I do not attend the live Zoom class, I am forfeiting any refund and will have only one opportunity to transfer to a later date. Refund requests must be made at least two weeks before the start of the training, or only a portion of the tuition will be reimbursed. All transfer requests will incur a small administrative fee of $50.
For live classes, we require a minimum number of students to hold each in person class, practicum or supervision. You will be notified several days before a class if the minimum number of students was not reached. You will be given the opportunity to either reschedule the class or be given a full refund.
Severe weather events may cause power or internet outages preventing us from offering the workshop on the scheduled day. The instructor lives in an area which experiences hurricanes. The instructor will make every effort to present the workshop on the dates indicated. In those rare cases where the workshop must be cancelled at the last minute, the instructor will offer the students alternative times to complete the workshop or to receive a refund.
Asynchronous, On Demand Classes
Due to the nature of on demand classes, refunds are only available due to technical difficulties within the first 7 days of purchase. The purchaser must have viewed less than 10% of the course to qualify for a refund. The purchaser must notify the instructor of the technical issue and allow the instructor to remedy the issue before a refund will be provided.
There is no conflict of interest or commercial support for this program.
