About Kay
A calm, skilled space for the patterns you’ve been carrying quietly.
I’m Kristin “Kay” Kraggerud, MSc — a trauma-informed Clinical EFT practitioner and mind-body coach supporting thoughtful, capable people with anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt, emotional pressure, business blocks, and nervous-system patterns that often feel hard to shift through insight alone.
My work is calm, practical, and paced. I do not believe in forcing emotional breakthroughs or pushing your nervous system faster than it is ready to go.
This is gentle work, but it is also skilled work. We work with the strong feelings underneath the pattern — carefully, specifically, and with respect for your pace.

Why I do this work
I care about the patterns people carry quietly.
Many people I work with are capable, thoughtful, and deeply self-aware. From the outside, they may look calm, responsible, professional, and composed.
Inside, it can feel very different. There may be constant overthinking, a strong inner critic, difficulty resting, people-pleasing, second-guessing, emotional overwhelm, or the sense that one small comment, mistake, or uncertain moment can set off a much bigger internal response.
Often, they have already tried to understand the pattern. They may have talked it through, journaled, read the books, tried mindset work, or practiced nervous-system tools — and still, in certain moments, their body reacts before their mind can choose something different.
Clinical EFT offers a gentle, structured way to work with both the emotional story and the body’s learned response — not by forcing change, but by helping what has been held begin to soften safely.
A calm, private space for emotionally safe one-to-one support.
My Philosophy
You are not broken. You learned ways to get through.
This is one of the core beliefs underneath my work: many emotional patterns are not flaws. They are old ways of coping that once made sense.
Bracing, overthinking, people-pleasing, staying alert, hiding, performing, or trying not to need too much may have helped you get through earlier pressure, uncertainty, criticism, loss, responsibility, or overwhelm.
Those patterns may feel exhausting now. They may no longer fit the life you want to live. But they are not evidence that something is wrong with you.
What this means in practice
In private Clinical EFT work, we do not treat the reaction as the enemy. We gently look at what it has been carrying and what may help it soften now.
- We begin with what feels present and manageable.
- We work with the strong feeling underneath the pattern.
- We respect hesitation, protection, and pace.
- We look for real-life steadiness, not forced positivity.
Who I support
The people who usually find their way here.
I primarily support thoughtful, capable women — and also work with coaches, practitioners, entrepreneurs, and business owners whose inner patterns are affecting how they live, work, lead, or show up.
People with patterns that feel bigger than the moment
- You understand where the pattern comes from, but still feel stuck in it.
- Your reactions make sense, but you do not want to keep living inside them.
- You want a gentler, more grounded way forward.
Coaches, practitioners, and business owners
- You carry responsibility and want to keep showing up well.
- You may struggle with visibility fear, decision pressure, or imposter feelings.
- You want steadiness, not more self-criticism.
How I work
Gentle does not mean superficial.
In trauma-informed EFT work, gentleness is part of what makes deeper work possible.
We are not trying to force your system into a dramatic breakthrough. We are listening carefully, working specifically, and supporting your body and mind to process emotional intensity at a pace that feels manageable.
This is especially important when patterns are layered, long-standing, or connected to younger parts, old beliefs, inner critic themes, or protective responses that developed for a reason.
The goal is not to make you perform healing. The goal is to help your system feel safe enough for real change to begin.

3
Use Clinical EFT with specificity Tapping helps us work with emotional intensity and nervous-system responses in a focused, paced way.
