Hello, I’m Ilaria Novak. I am a Trauma-Informed Therapeutic Sobriety Coach and an Accredited Advanced Clinical EFT Practitioner.

I help people to stop drinking and maintain their sobriety by healing the core issues that led them to use alcohol problematically in the first place using a somatic therapeutic modality called Clinical EFT (aka “tapping”).

I offer a safe environment to explore the feelings and emotions that people have found difficult to cope with, which led them to think of alcohol (or other substances) as a temporary solution to them and which are stopping them now from moving forward. By tapping, I help people safely process those emotions and thoughts. By doing that, they will gain a new perspective around alcohol (or other substances) and develop healthier ways to live a life without being dependent on anything outside of their own selves.

All the sessions are online. EFT works as well remotely as in person, and clients are in their own environment.
I always tap together with my clients during all the sessions, mirroring each other. In this way, my clients learn how to tap on themselves, and I will also encourage them to tap in between sessions to make our work together more effective.

I approach the work we do together as a collaborative partnership.

My work is client-led. My clients are in the driving seat and they decide where they want to go. I am beside them to facilitate the change they will initiate to enable them to progress towards their desired outcome.
