Our Mission
At Through Lines, I feel genuinely privileged to provide services and courses that support your journey to self. Whether to you that means seeking a sense of safety in your own body, or expressing your agency through expanding your definition and expression of self. Here, you are both acknowledged as the expert of your own body & experiences while offered the support of intentional guidance and community connection.
Throughout my work I pull from my array of educational experiences, as well as my continuous search for expanded horizons and insight from authors such as Gabor Mate MD (The Myth of Normal: Illness, Health and Healing in a Toxic Culture), Dr. Ingrid Clayton (Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves), and Richard C. Schwartz PhD (No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma & Restoring Wholeness with The Internal Family Systems Model). Most importantly, I am constantly inspired by the healers in my life (they know who they are <3), my students, my friends, and my lived experiences.
It is said that art reflects life and life reflects art. It seems to me too, that all aspects of our stories: body, thoughts, emotions, energy are reflected in our communities and vice versa. This interconnectedness that is sometimes easy to forget in a world where isolation and strife are seemingly everywhere, is re-discoverable when the Through Lines of our experiences make themselves known. Sometimes this is the way that our emotional bodies are accessible through the physical body and sometimes it is the way we hear, see, or feel our own stories reflected in those around us when the space is held for all to express and listen.
