Therapeutic insights from Nancy L. Colattur, LCSW, LISACl
A Therapeutic Approach to Professional Growth
A Collaboration Between Two Fields
Research Based
On an individual level, TEA(ch) N Glow serves as your support system in navigating change and transformation. It equips you with the tools and confidence to move forward when presented with new methods, ideas, and challenges in your teaching. It provides clarity and meaning for those Professional Development (PD) sessions that may feel less impactful, empowering you to extract their full value. It’s how you support yourself when you feel unsupported.
On an organizational level, this book offers a framework for systematic change. Districts, schools, or teams adopting this approach aim to build a culture of thriving, not just surviving, in education. They seek to address burnout directly while improving learning outcomes. The book can also be provided to new educators as a form of mentorship and a support for individual growth.
The culture of teaching often glorifies perseverance over self-care, urging educators to “push through,” “work harder,” and “stay positive.” But what happens when resilience isn’t enough? When the relentless demand for endurance leaves educators pouring from an empty cup with nothing left to give?
