Pema Chodron said, “Nothing ever goes away until it teaches us what we need to know.” I’ll add that once we “learn the lesson” on a mental level, we must teach it to our body on a physiological level.
The truth is: We need somatic tools that not only release the pattern on a mental level, but a nervous system level.

Steps to Become an Accredited Certified EFT Practitioner: Moving from EFT Skills to EFT Practitioner
You’ve probably peeked at other EFT trainings and I know what you’re wondering:
Will I fit in? Do I need a license? What if I fall behind? Am I going to be left on my own? Am I going to have to keep paying for every little replay?
Here’s how this program is built differently, so you feel supported, safe, and actually graduate with skills you can use.
Let me put your mind at ease. Here’s exactly how this EFT Level 1/2 training is different:
-
It’s me. You’ll be trained by the actual founder of Somatic EFT™, not passed off to novice mentors. I’ve been training practitioners since 2016, and I’ll be guiding you through every step.
-
Both! You can attend live sessions or watch recordings you keep for life. No paying extra for replays.
-
Here’s our rhythm:
Learn a skill (e.g., EFT for migraines, screen addiction, anger, anxiety, or money beliefs).
Watch me demo it in real time.
Practice on yourself for about 15 minutes.
Come back full circle to share insights and ask questions.
Take it into the real world — practice on yourself, friends, family, or clients — and return with your discoveries.
You can message questions in between or bring them to our next live call.
-
Yes — you’ll have a bank of real session demos to watch how it’s done in practice, not just theory.
-
I’ve got you. Every module includes video, audio, transcripts, and worksheets, so you can learn in the way your brain and body absorb best.
-
Not at all. Our groups are full of diverse students from every walk of life — from clinicians and coaches to parents, teachers, even a tax broker turned rapper. Ages range from 18 to 78, from time zones across the globe. You don’t need a license — just curiosity and a willingness to learn.
-
Yes and no! Real pros don’t use scripts because EFT is about honesty, not memorization of arbitrary scripts that might not apply to your client or kiddo or yourself.
You’ll walk away with actual session frameworks you can use right away. No “technique soup” - You’ll learn a client-focused, issue-led process rather than scattered techniques.
-
Other trainings give you techniques. Ours gives you a process. We’re client-centered and issue-led, not just technique-led. That means you’ll leave knowing how to hold a whole session with structure and flow — not just tap randomly.
Ours teaches you a repeatable process to lead real sessions. You’ll graduate with confidence, not confusion.
-
Yes. We only teach data-driven, science-backed methods — not shallow surface tapping from YouTube.
-
Yes.
This program includes trauma-informed methods so you can safely and responsibly hold space for others.
Because deep healing deserves more than surface-level scripts.
-
Absolutely. This program is designed with integration in mind. I’ve trained with master teachers and built the flow so you can learn, pause, practice, and return with real questions. It’s not a firehose of information - it’s bite-sized, experiential, and digestible.
What Students are Saying:
I cannot put into words what a great teacher Jackie is, she goes above and beyond to make sure her students are learning to the very best of their ability. She is clear, concise, so thorough AND so relatable. I would recommend Jackie to anyone who is interested in training in EFT.
Michelle, Level 1&2 Workshop
Jackie’s way of teaching made understanding the Science behind EFT so clear and fun! I would recommend Jackie’s trainings to everybody. Jackie is very professional, generous with sharing her knowledge and provides amazing value.
Morgane, Level 1&2 Workshop
Holy Guacamole! What a transformative experience!!! Holy Trinity of healing for me- Mind, Body and spirit.
— M, EFT Level 1&2 Workshop
Jackie is an inspiration. The examples I watched and the personal experiences I had will stay with me forever. She facilitated the group with a high level of professionalism, wisdom, and warmth and helped create a mini healing community spanning the globe.

Join Workshops Before Applying to Become a Fully Certified EFT Practitioner
I’m a big believer in stair steps, not giant jumps - because your nervous system needs time to integrate. Also, becoming an EFT Practitioner to hold space for others is no small decision.
You can ease in with a La carte Level 1 & 2 workshops above before deciding if full EFT Practitioner certification is right for you.
After completing the Level 1/2 Live workshops, you can apply to become a fully Accredited EFT Practitioner with Jackie (and embark on a 6+ month certification track of deep practice, mentorship, and integration).
-
If you’re enrolled in full certification track, you’ll get access to an app-like community where you can connect with me and other students. It’s a safe, supportive space to ask questions, share wins, and get encouragement.
-
Nope. We keep groups small and personal so you’re supported, seen, and never lost in the crowd.
-
That’s okay. You’ll have access to practice partner swaps so you always have someone to work with — even if your client list is at zero.
-
Nope. You’ll have options for voice memo Q&A, real-time answers, and personal feedback on your sessions. You’ll never feel like you’re shouting questions into the void.
-
Yes! If you’re ready to go all in, you’ll unlock bonus business training and extra live calls. But if you’d rather start small, you can. You’ll never be pressured — this is about what feels safe and doable for you.
-
You won’t be stuck in an endless loop. Each cohort has a clear start and finish, so you graduate together with your group — motivated, connected, and complete.
-
Both. Other programs stop at the techniques — but I want you to actually use this work in the world. If you sign up for full certification (vs. just a la carte workshops) you’ll get business training woven in so you can build a sustainable practice and reach the people who need you most.
Is this for you?
You do NOT need to be a licensed practitioner to become a trained Accredited EFT Tapping Practitioner. If you feel called to equip others with evidence based tools, proven to regulate the nervous system and ease physical, mental, and emotional symptoms in the way of peak performance, EFT Certification is for you.
Many of my students have been…
Coaches who want trauma-informed tools to break through unconscious resistance
Yogis who want to not only release energetic blocks but interrupt the mental loops that perpetuate their client’s limiting beliefs
Teachers who believe that social-emotional neuroplasticity is the future of education
Therapists who want to move beyond understanding root causes, and instead somatically release root causes
Parents who wanted to feel confident and equipped to support themsleves and their families when illness or BIG feelings strike.
What Students are Saying:
Jackie is one of the most genuine and compassionate people I have met. Her integrity and authenticity shine alongside her intuitive brilliance as an instructor and practitioner. Her soothing voice and unconditional positive regard are healing in themselves. The way she holds space for learning and healing are truly transformative. My personal life and work have been elevated by her wisdom and the practical experience. Not only am I benefiting from what I am learning--my family, community, and clients are also benefiting. I highly recommend every new EFT or Energy practitioner to work with Jackie so we can carry her ripples out into the world.
Candice, EFT Practitioner, Herbalist, Health Educator, EFT Level 3 Training
Jackie is an amazing trainer. Very knowledgeable, available and kind. She’s also very gentle when leading a demo, especially when the client/student is emotional or having a hard time. When there’s a chance to take another course with her, I definitely will. I feel more equipped now to use EFT on myself and on clients.
Anonymous Student, Level 1&2 Workshop
I was a bit apprehensive about so many hours on Zoom but you made the class interesting, interactive, and educational. Zoom was not an issue at all!

Jackie
Jackie Viramontez is a Master Level EFT Trainer with over a decade of experience with EFT, Energy Psychology, and Inner Child Healing.
She built her practice empowering adults and teens ready to break free from trauma, people-pleasing, sexual abuse, and anxiety.
She has a heart for empath healers and parents facing (postpartum) anxiety and depression since it’s a potent container to reparent the inner child.
Her mission is to train the next generation of healing practitioners how to blend trauma-informed EFT tapping with Inner Child Work, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and EMDR based modalities.
My Motivation
This generation is more educated about their physical and mental health than ever before, but the rates of stress, anxiety, and illness continue to grow.
My life changed when I found a tool that went to the emotional depths I craved, but that I could explain to my most logical colleague. It’s an honor to teach it to the next generation.
I was one of the 302 million (NIMH) people experiencing anxiety when I found Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/Tapping). I was on medication. I had seen dozens of healers. I WAS in the healing field.
When the relief of a session or pill would wear off, I would find myself in the same space: Anxious and disempowered. I was dependent on the quick fix of a supplement or expensive practitioner. Even worse, I was a trained Reiki Master, yogi, vegan, and avid reader with a library of books on healing. If anyone should have been able to “heal” themselves, it was me.
I felt like an imposter.
After 2 decades of
holistic healing....
In 2011, I was sitting on a couch in my Santa Monica apartment when my life changed. A family member sent me a video link of someone “tapping” away anxiety.
While skeptical, I tapped along. The tension in my jaw lifted. My brain fog cleared. My very loud inner critic turned down her volume. Could it be this easy?
For the first time, I was not at the mercy of someone or something else to feel better. I had a tool to take my health and wellness into my own hands.
Cut to three months later: I found myself on a plane to my first EFT/Tapping Training. I walked in as a Reiki Master and School Teacher and walked out on track to be a Certified EFT Practitioner. That workshop was the workshop I now teach today, this one!
I continued to do table work and tutor, but EFT/Tapping allowed me to provide for myself in a way that was not only fulfilling but legacy-building.
Now, if a client or student walked into my life only one time, I was giving them a tool they would use for life.
Testimonials started popping into my inbox:
“You saved my marriage, and in 3 sessions no less.”
“I just booked my first full-paying client! I didn’t even feel nervous telling them my rate!”
“I want to use my final session on a new topic. My back pain (of 20 years) is completely gone. Can we work on my career goals instead?”
I was teaching clients to not be at mercy of someone or something else to feel better. I was giving them a tool to take their future into their own hands; A tool that was backed by the latest research, and only took a few minutes to learn.
Now, 10+ years later, I teach for the largest accredited EFT Organization in the world, and I hear from hundreds of future practitioners who share the same sentiment:
They tell me: “I don’t want students or clients to be dependent on me. I want to empower them with tools to support themselves.
If you feel called to…
address the root causes of physical and emotional pain (i.g. back pain, hormonal imbalance, adrenal fatigue, migraines, etc), release the protective function of limiting behaviors and beliefs (i.e. anxiety, people-pleasing, codependency, procrastination, etc), and align to personal and professional goals, reserve your seat below.
