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.
