Dr. Fred Gallo, clinical psychologist, has been widely recognized for his leadership and accomplishments in the areas of Energy Psychology, efficient psychotherapy and trauma. He is the author of numerous articles, book chapters, manuals, and seven books, including Energy Psychology, Energy Tapping, and Energy Tapping for Trauma. 

Since 1974, he has been practicing clinical psychology, although he became interested in psychology and hypnosis during his teenage years. In 1968, he graduated from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA with undergraduate study in philosophy and psychology.  The day after graduation, he suffered a severe automobile accident and had a near-death experience.  For many years after the accident he experienced frequent panic attacks, which he serendipitously resolved without formal therapy.  After recovering from injuries and extensive surgery, he took a job teaching English, French, theater and civics at a Pittsburgh-area Junior High School. During that time, he discovered the therapeutic value of acting for several of his students.  In 1969, he also attended graduate school in philosophy at Duquesne. After traveling the United States and then working as a youth counselor for several years, he attended graduate training in clinical psychology. He also did postgraduate study at Kent State University and Youngstown State University in psychology and counseling.  His clinical internship was at Dayton Mental Health Center.  Before entering private practice, Dr. Gallo worked in the fields of juvenile corrections, mental retardation, learning disabilities, child welfare, vocational rehabilitation, chemical dependency, and also taught briefly at Pennsylvania State University.  He has been on staff at local hospitals since 1980, consulting with physicians about the care of patients.

In 1980, he began training professionals in communication, hypnosis, and systemic approaches.  Since 1993, he has been offering training worldwide in Energy Psychology, including his multi-faceted Advanced Energy Psychology (AEP)™ methods: Energy Diagnostic and Treatment Methods (EDxTM)™ and Energy Consciousness Therapy (ECT)™. He has trained over a thousand professionals in Energy Psychology and has certified about fifty trainers in his approach.

 

Dr. Gallo was awarded an MA in clinical psychology from the University of Dayton, and a Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh. He is a member of the American Psychological Association, the Pennsylvania Psychological Association, and the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology.

 

He has founded two free email lists: the EnerGym Forum, which focuses on a variety of energy-based and therapeutic topics available to anyone interested in such topics; and the EDxTM™ Forum, which offers ongoing support for Advanced Energy Psychology EDxTM™ professionals.
