The Absent Father
 

Are You Still Hurting from an Absent Childhood Father? Get Emotional Relief

You had an absent father if you answer any of this questions with yes:

Did your father abandon you when you were a child?
Have you never had contact with your father, or only for a very short time?
Did your father die when you were a child or an adolescent?
Has your father been sometimes in your life but absent for long periods of time?
Was your father physically present but emotionally unavailable or rejecting you?

Fathers can be absent in the lives of their daughters and sons in many ways, and all of them hurt. There are dire statistics about the effect of a missing father in the family (poverty, substance abuse, lack of education), but even if they don't apply, you might experience one or more of the following symptons in your adult life:

heart A big hole in your heart, an emotional emptiness that never seems to go away
heart Low self-esteem, feeling worthless
heart Feeling unsafe and anxious
heart Abandonment and anger issues
heart Unsure about being a man (a woman)

My name is Carna Zacharias-Miller. I am a certified EFT practitioner and emotional wellness coach.  EFT, also called "tapping", is a form of mindful acupressure. You do not need to know how to do it, I can teach you in our phone sessions. On occasion I use Matrix Reimprinting which is an extended, more visual form of EFT.

I know how you feel. I grew up with divorced parents, a completely missing mother and a father who was absent in my early childhood. I have worked with hundreds of clients through the pain that "missing parents" cause.

Using EFT ("tapping") can help:

- Release the negative charge of longstanding, painful childhood emotions
- Neutralize haunting memories
- Create -often very powerful- cognitive shifts
- Make you feel better, lighter, more positive and peaceful

What is EFT?

Please look around, download the free EFT script, and contact me for a free consultation.

If you have a "missing mother", please go to  www.missingmother.com

Public exposure: Oh, the fear and shame
