Our Story

For almost 20 years, we've been on a mission to make evidence-based emotional health accessible to everyone through the power of Tapping.

The Tapping Solution Founders

Nick, Jessica, and Alex Ortner are siblings dedicated to bringing Tapping to the world.

Nick, Jessica, and Alex Ortner - The Tapping Solution Founders

For almost twenty years, siblings Nick, Jessica, and Alex Ortner have devoted their lives to a simple idea with world-shifting potential: that every person deserves tools to calm their mind, soothe their stress, and feel at home in their own body. What began as a small family project has grown into The Tapping Solution, a global movement that has helped millions reclaim their emotional well-being.

Together, they've created bestselling books, groundbreaking digital programs, and The Tapping Solution App, now the leading platform for EFT Tapping worldwide. With more than a thousand guided sessions played tens of millions of times, their work has brought evidence-based emotional relief into living rooms, classrooms, clinics, and communities around the globe.

Their impact extends beyond the screen. Through The Tapping Solution Foundation, the Ortners have brought Tapping to schools, disaster-relief zones, and underserved populations, offering practical tools in life's toughest moments.

The Ortners' mission is simple and profound: to make emotional relief accessible to all.
