"Death and the practice of Surrender have medicine for us all." ~ L.A.Roberts

Courage – At Thresholding, we create and support brave space, because for many, there is no such thing as safe space. And, this is truer still when we are in the midst of surrendering to change, growth and healing. By holding an embodied presence of confidence and personal sufficiency, clients and their community are invited to experiment with this same grounded confidence, authenticity and acceptance of what is within them and their lives.

Curiosity – The very nature of supportive holding at important thresholds requires patient, unpressured curiosity. Turning to wonder in these often difficult moments supports the wise, self-determination of the client.

Embodiment – Thresholding utilizes somatic (body-centered) and mindfulness based approaches for habit change, stress reduction, conflict resolution, personal and professional development and self-actualization. This approach incorporates the various intelligence centers of each client (including head, heart and body/gut) so that the client can take sustainable and resilient action toward their vision, values and goals.

Privacy – The act of “Thresholding” in any context utilizes intentionally contained space to explore and try on ideas and plans without fear others will interfere or communicate prematurely or without intention. We are committed to respectful privacy and anonymity for clients seeking to explore the confidential nature of these life transitions.

Self-Determination – We hold the highest fidelity to amplifying the voice and inner authority of our clients. We have a deep respect for the wisdom of the people and communities we serve. We celebrate the cognitive, lived-experience and other forms of diversity of each client as the vital guidance required in this work. Thresholding is committed to meeting each individual, team and community where they are, how they learn and around their vision of the future trusting that the highest and best outcome for each client can only be achieved through the clarification and amplification of that client’s Truth.

Reciprocity – It is a privilege and honor to do the work of Thresholding. We understand our offerings are possible only because of the generosity of those who have poured their insight and experience into this work throughout the ages. We stand, hopefully always respectfully, on the shoulders of many different kinds of traditions and wisdom teachings of ancient and diverse communities. As such, we value reciprocity in all that we do striving to embody the same generosity that has made the work of Thresholding possible.
