Understanding Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the EFT Tapping Training

Understanding Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the EFT Tapping Training

If you’re exploring EFT Tapping, you may be wondering about the differences between the three levels of training and which one is right for you. EFT Master Instructor Deborah Lindsey breaks down each level, showing how they build on one another and what skills you’ll gain at every stage.

Level One: Healing Yourself

Level one focuses entirely on self-healing. You learn to use EFT to address your own emotions, beliefs, and experiences. This foundation is crucial because personal experience with EFT allows you to show up authentically when helping others. By working on yourself first, you gain the confidence and insight needed to become an effective practitioner.

In Level 1, you are learning the basics of EFT, how it works, the theory behind it, and how to tap effectively. 

Level Two: Becoming a Practitioner

Level two moves you from self-work to professional practice. Here, you start working with other students and then people in your community. The focus is on issue-based clients.

Issue-based clients are those who present with a specific challenge like a phobia, a craving, a traumatic memory, or physical pain.

It is in Level 2 where you learn the various techniques that you will use in your practice and when you will use them. 

You then practice the techniques, make mistakes, learn from them, and gradually develop the confidence to guide clients effectively. By the end of level two, you are a certified practitioner capable of handling client sessions and seeing real results.

Level Three: Mastery and Life Clients

Level three, or Master’s training, takes your skills to the next level. This stage is designed for working with life clients, individuals with multiple, interconnected issues, and a complex history.

You learn advanced techniques such as perspective shifting, addressing childhood patterns, matrix reimprinting, and identifying where a client’s energy or power is leaking. This training helps you guide clients with chronic challenges toward significant transformation, giving you the tools to handle complex sessions with confidence.

Choosing the Right Level

The level you choose depends on your goals.
  • Personal growth: Level one is sufficient, though level two adds skills that prepare you to work with others.
  • Professional practice: Levels one and two combined give you the foundation and confidence to guide clients effectively.
  • Advanced mastery: Level three is ideal for practitioners who want to handle complex, multi-issue clients and create profound transformations.
Starting with levels one and two allows you to build skills gradually, while jumping into all three levels is suitable for those committed to mastering EFT at the highest level.
