T4T
Tapping 4 Teachers is a therapeutic service to manage chronic stress, anxiety and loss of vibrancy within educational careers. I can help you to feel better, by regulating your central nervous system and build healthy personal resilience using Emotional Freedom Techniques (Tapping) and Coaching.
Teachers are managing extraordinary pressure within schools. Responsibilities and demands are expanding. There are few opportunities or time to reflect on their needs or
wellbeing. Teachers and school staff often lack a strong sense of fulfilment or success.
Physical and emotional health is frequently only considered at crisis point. Burn-out is becoming common and many great teachers are leaving the profession early.

What is Emotional Freedom Techniques?
EFT is a complementary therapeutic practice. It involves focusing on uncomfortable feelings and limiting thoughts whilst applying gentle fingertip pressure on the face and body. It involves both mind and body through talking and tapping. It helps to restore balance to our systems and allow disrupted energy to flow.
When tapping, we connect to our emotional, right-side brain, it is then possible to ease negative thoughts and create alternative thinking whilst regulating the body.
EFT is safe, simple and frequently effective within a few sessions. Clients often report an improvement in overall well-being following one session. Research has shown EFT to reduce stress, anxiety and depression. It can support a wide range of issues, including low self-esteem, lack of confidence, insomnia and pain.

Ingrid Fitzgerald
I am Ingrid Fitzgerald. I was a teacher for thirty-three years and I worked in London and Kent. I specialised in Hearing Impairment and Early Years. I worked in mainstream, special schools, resource bases and as an advisory teacher.
In 1987, when I started teaching in South East London, education was very different and the National Curriculum had not yet arrived. I was excited, enthusiastic and passionate about my career. I had boundless energy to further develop my skills and understanding. I remember some of my happiest times during my first ten years. Teaching felt creative, diverse, flexible and truly child-centred.
I left teaching in 2021. I remember a morning in the staff carpark. It was cold and dark at 7am and I phoned a close friend, while sitting in my car. I told her that I couldn’t continue feeling the way I was. On reflection, I was chronically exhausted and close to burn-out. My confidence was on the floor. I had hit an emotional wall.
I took a leap of faith and made huge changes in order to train as a Life Coach and Emotional Freedom Techniques practitioner. I realised that my health and well-being were a priority and I wanted to experience life differently.
Three years on and I am ready to share my EFT Coach skills and support with teachers and school staff.
You deserve to feel your best and show up as the amazing teachers that you are. The most valuable resource available for children and young people.
