Your clients are carrying emotional weight that talk therapy alone isn't shifting fast enough. As a behavioral health professional, you need evidence-based tools that work at the body level — where trauma and emotion actually live. Adding somatic tapping to your clinical toolkit doesn't require starting over — it enhances what you already do. Whether you work with anxiety, trauma, grief, or emotional regulation, these CE courses give you practical, body-based skills you can use with clients right away. Learn at your own pace and earn continuing education hours while expanding your therapeutic approach.

Asynchronous means you take the class at a different time from when the class was originally created. Online classes are prerecorded so you can complete the class at any time of the day or night. This makes it very convenient to learn a new skill on your own time.
Yes, plans are underway to offer live classes again. Originally all four classes were offered in a single weekend. As you might expect, it was a lot of information for one weekend. So future live classes will be on a single topic. The plan is to offer the introductory class more frequently with the remaining classes offered live either quarterly or every six months.
Continuing education hours for counselors, marriage and family therapists, and social workers are offered through the Commission on Rehabilitation Counseling Certification (CRCC) and through the Alabama State Board of Social Work Examiners. The number of CEs will vary by class. More information on CEs can be found here.
Yes!! Everyone is strongly encouraged to use it for their own issues first. As Gary Craig often said, "Try it on everything!"
As you gain more skills, you will learn different ways to release issues keeping the process gentle. The body feels things before our mind even registers the thought or emotion. This is why the classes are in the order they are in. The classes are designed to guide you from self-regulation to acknowledging your body and moving on to addressing your thoughts and working on upsetting events and trauma.

Diana Sturm began her training with Gary Craig, the founder of Emotional Freedom Techniques, and later expanded her expertise through EFT Universe and the Guild of Energists (GOE), completing the GOE Train the Trainer program. While these trainings focused on coaching applications, Diana drew on her extensive clinical experience in mental health counseling to develop her own method. Her approach integrates tapping with somatic steps, allowing clients to release the emotional charge associated with upsetting events and trauma.
Originally offering live two-day trainings, Diana recognized the need for more flexible learning options and created four online courses for behavioral health professionals. These courses guide therapists from using tapping for relaxation in the introductory class to applying advanced techniques for supporting clients with trauma in the final class.
In addition to training therapists, Diana is expanding her offerings to include classes for coaches, focusing on stress reduction, relaxation, and emotional regulation—making tapping accessible to anyone who wants to feel calmer, more grounded, and more resilient.
With her unique combination of training from leading tapping organizations and advanced degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Diana is exceptionally qualified to train behavioral health professionals and coaches in safe, effective, and integrative use of tapping with their clients..
