Energy Psychology Specialist

Sharon Downs, M.Ed., is a Specialized Kinesiologist, Certified One Brain ™ Facilitator, EFT practitioner, and utilizes Energy Psychology methods to help individuals transform their perceptions, thoughts and bad habits.  Sharon graduated Temple University with a master’s degree in education in 1979 and completed her holistic training at the School Of Specialized Kinesiology in Feasterville, PA.  She’s worked at a number of wellness centers in Philadelphia, PA as well as a number of locations in Delaware such as Lewes, Smyrna and Dover.    Sharon has helped children, adolcents, adults and the elderly eliminate stress, stop emotional overeating and live happier lives.

In her practice she uses kinesiology (muscle testing) to connect to the body’s innate intelligence.  She believes that we hold our entire history, from conception to the present, within our bodies.  She uses energy balancing techniques such as flower essences, polarity balancing, color, and conversation in a therapeutic way to identify the issues that relate to the causes of the stress.   She views the client as the authority.  They alone can unlock the binds of their pressing issues.  With her guidance the client travels to a place of insight, awareness and change.  The result is a state of empowerment as the individual moves to a place of possibility.  The stress is released and a lighter, positive attitude is experienced mentally, emotionally, and physically. 

In 2006, Sharon presented her Stop Emotional Overeating Program to Sussex County Delaware.  The program answers the question… Why don’t diets work?  Utilizing her 14 years of holistic healing training and practice along with her own life experiences, Sharon tapped into the one area Diet Centers refuse to address: the emotional component to overeating and weight gain.  For many, weight gain is connected to how we cope with stress?  You may find you crave chocolate or potato chips when dealing with a stressful situation or person.  You may continuously overeat to avoid feeling emotions such as anger, resentment, and frustration.  For most people diets are only a temporary fix.  They work only until your next emotional upset.  Diets don’t address the cause of overeating.  The Stop Emotional OverEating Program addresses the root of the overeating.  It is designed to assist you in identifying the thoughts and feelings that precedes overeating.  This program is educational as well as therapeutic.  With the use of journal writing, EFT, and Sharon’s guidance you will begin to transform how you deal with your stress.  You will find a new strength when old eating habits are replaced with healthy food choices in proper proportions.  The struggle is over.  This program offers you a process of self discovery, transformation, and a new future.  This program is offered in group settings and in private sessions.

For the past 14 years Sharon has provided a safe and nurturing environment in which her clients can heal and transform their lives.
