SUCCESS STORIES
Real Experiences. Meaningful Results.
One of the greatest privileges of my career has been witnessing the resilience and growth of the people I've had the opportunity to work with.
Over the years, I've received kind words from clients, students, colleagues, and organizations who have generously shared their experiences. While every person's journey is unique, I'm grateful they've allowed me to share a small part of their stories here.
I hope these reflections provide insight into what it's like to work and learn together.
PRIVATE THERAPY CLIENTS
“The willingness to face my buried emotional trauma and unhealed pain combined with the specialized trauma work with Dr. Robert L. Bray, has allowed for a successful outcome. With the use of thought field therapy (TFT Tapping) as an important part of that therapy, it allowed me to emotionally heal. Not only did the Tapping help rewire my brain, it also gave me an instant tool to help myself in any upsetting situation. Working with Dr Bray and learning his Tapping techniques to help myself learn how to quickly get out of the emotional reaction brain and into the thinking brain, and to face and heal my emotional trauma, has been the best self-care and the best gift I’ve ever given myself!”
“Thought Field Therapy by Dr Robert Bray has been instrumental to my successful healing process. I am an incest survivor, rape survivor and spousal abuse survivor. During the therapeutic appointments with him, using the tapping cycles he introduces are critical to keeping me grounded and thinking. It allows me to move back from the chaotic emotions that come up when we are working. The customized tapping sequences he has given me for use at home help me to help myself stay in the moment. The tapping keeps me from spiraling back into the emotions from the past and stay in the present. I would recommend his process to anyone dealing with sexual trauma.”
“Thought Field Therapy helped me make lasting changes when nothing else had. I tried to manage overwhelming depression and PTSD for 25+ years seeing doctors, trying medications, talking to therapists, and particularly disruptive, multiple hospitalizations. Working with Bob and using TFT brought all of that to a swift end. TFT settled my overwhelming thoughts, feelings, and memories in a matter of minutes. I was finally able to make progress toward moving my life forward. Bob is an amazing teacher and therapist; I hope everyone will take advantage of the opportunity to experience and practice Thought Field Therapy.”
“Dr. Bray is one of the best most respected psychotherapist in the nation. He is a thought leader in cutting edge approaches to dissolving trauma, phobias and anxieties. I have personally experienced a change from being afraid of bats and heights to now being free of those fears. I highly recommend you experience Dr. Brays work, through his classes and individual session, you will be glad you did.”
These reflections come from individuals who sought support for concerns such as anxiety, trauma, grief, stress, addiction, and other life challenges.

THOUGHT FIELD THERAPY TRAINING
“I took the TFT Boot Camp over a weekend in Calgary this past spring, and despite being somewhat skeptical at first, I have to say by the end of the weekend I had decided it was fabulous! I felt awesome after that weekend, and
since then TFT has helped me deal with some physical and emotional challenges in my life, and left me feeling energized and ready to face more challenges! I would love to learn more and take the Toxins course, and have set those as my goals.
Dr. Bray was a fantastic instructor with a lot of personal experience and analogies to color the training, making the weekend interesting, informative, and most of all invigorating!”
“Wow, this really lifted my spirit and helped me a lot. I just found out about TFT a couple of days ago and just found your YouTube channel, although I’ve been doing EFT, EMDR, IFS and other things for many years. This felt different and I can really feel how it released a lot of heaviness, switched my mood and felt like the sun coming through on a cloudy day 🙂 Thank you for these videos.”
“I have used tapping on myself & still help others when possible.
People are amazed how effective it is & works. One of my dear friends rolls her eyes when I say we are going to tap to bring down your anxiety. She always is disgruntled but does it with me. The best part of her story is…. She told me last week she actually did some tapping and it really helped her. She’s a believer now!!!
I’m so thankful you have taught me and showed me the wonderful world of tapping.
Oh- it also worked on my cat Einstein. Only I didn’t touch him- focused on him and his energy while I tapped on myself!! Einstein is a true hunter & will go after the neighborhood cats. They are not harnessed & leashed like he is. He became Houdini for a week last June, consistently backing out of his harness & escaping for an hour or more!! Mama fixed that, found an escape proof harness. Works like a charm. Had a few nasty struggles which caused both of us to be stressed. Tapped first for me & the second time for Einstein.
Thank you again for sharing this awesome tool to get through any situation.”
Students from a wide range of professional backgrounds have participated in my training programs, including psychologists, counselors, physicians, coaches, educators, nurses, first responders, and individuals pursuing personal growth.

PROFESSIONAL CONSULTATION & SUPERVISION
“I have recently attended TFT Boot Camp in Oakland, Ca and met Robert Bray as our trainer. He is an amazing man who gave of his time yesterday to help one of my patients, a Veteran of Iraq war twice deployed suffering with PTSD since 2005. She was miserable. I could not touch her with my basic level of expertise although I gave it a good try. I called Robert and although he was on his way to his vacation he gave my patient direct attention via phone. I was so proud to be working with you all.”
“Dr. Bray...just wanted you to know that I used your Pocket Guide today w/my first TFT session w/a psychotherapy client...and it was VERY helpful! Thanks, again! :)”
Supporting fellow professionals has been one of the most rewarding parts of my career.
Whether through consultation, clinical supervision, or mentorship, these reflections come from colleagues who have sought guidance, collaboration, and continued professional development.
SPEAKING & ORGANIZATIONAL TRAINING
“I’ve been meaning to contact you for some time. I know you probably don’t remember me, but I took your TFT training at an ICISF conference in San Francisco about four years ago. I’ve been with the Minneapolis Fire Department for almost 26 years, both as a firefighter and a fire captain. I now manage our department’s internal EAP program, which I started almost seven years ago. I just wanted to let you know that TFT has been my treatment of choice for people who are in immediate crisis or who are having problems self-regulating due to a recent traumatic event or some other anxiety-producing event in their lives. While it may not make everything immediately better in their lives at the moment or make the problem go away, I’ve found that it calms them down enough so that they can think about the event more calmly or clearly without feeling overwhelmed emotionally and physically. I know I’ve easily used TFT dozens of times over the years, both with firefighters and civilians. People are usually very surprised at the results and feel very grateful afterwards. In most cases, one 20-30 minute session is all that is needed after assessing them. Even with my longer-term clients, it has proven useful when they seem stuck or would like to try something different. Again, they are usually surprised at the results. Overall, the TFT training I took from you has proven more useful than most of the other trainings I’ve attended mainly because I’ve been able to use it right away with positive results.”
“Thank you for what you do too! I’ve used tapping methods before but never formally been trained. But ever since I saw you at my first ASAP conference, which was this year I wanted to take your training.❤”
I've had the privilege of presenting to professional organizations, healthcare systems, universities, crisis response teams, and conferences throughout the United States and internationally.

WHAT MATTERS MOST
While I'm grateful for every kind word shared here, what matters most to me isn't the testimonial itself.
It's knowing that someone found hope after feeling discouraged.
It's seeing a professional leave training with greater confidence.
It's watching an organization better support the people it serves.
Helping people discover practical tools for healing and growth has always been the heart of my work, and I'm honored to have been part of so many meaningful stories along the way.
COULD YOUR STORY BE NEXT?
Whether you're seeking personal support, professional training, consultation, or a speaker for your organization, I'd be honored to learn more about your goals.
If we decide we're the right fit to work together, I look forward to helping you write the next chapter of your own story.
