Energy
Psychology (EP) is the name for a broad range of psychological
treatments that utilize the human energy system. Included in this
group are treatments such as Thought Field Therapy, Emotional
Freedom Technique, Releasing Technique, Be Set Free Fast, Tapas
Acupressure Technique and many other such therapies.
Each of these intentionally utilizes one of the human energy systems
-such as the meridian system, the chakra system or the aura system
– during psychological treatment. Psychological therapies such
as EMDR (Eye-Movement, Desensitization and Re-Processing) and
other deep therapies that access subconscious material, may act
energetically as well (that is, they may cause energetic releases
and healing). However, such therapies, do not intentionally utilize
one of the body's energetic systems and are not, therefore, called
"energy psychology" therapies.
There are also many energetic healing modalities that do not use
psychological processes – such as chi gong, acupuncture, aromatherapy,
reflexology, therapeutic touch and so forth – and these, too,
are not called “energy psychology” treatments. The term “Energy
Psychology” refers only those therapies that use both psychological
interventions and energetic interventions together in a particular
treatment format
