I'm pretty sure on one of the training videos for EFT they discuss a case of successfully treating emetophobia with EFT.

I've not used EFT for that particular phobia with a client myself, however I have used it successfully with clients with other phobias (e.g. spiders, public speaking, clowns, panic attacks) so believe it is a route that is worth investigating in your case.

Yes it seems weird, yes it is way removed from our usual every day experience - yet it can be very successful.

One thing, my advice is to work with a practitioner when dealing with a phobia, just in case it brings something up that you aren't expecting. (It's unlikely, but it's worth erring on the side of caution). If you can't find a practitioner near you then at the very least find one that works over the phone, or a friend that has read the principles of EFT that can be with you.

I really wish you all the best in getting your life back. Please contact me if you have any questions that you need help with
