Lin Bauer

 MS, CCMHP, QTTT (she/her)

I have been a Therapeutic Touch practitioner since 1992 and teacher since 2002, teaching all three levels of TT.  As a retired Special Education teacher after 32+ years, I am also a Sound Therapist, practicing since 2001. I am currently on the board of Camp Indralaya and am the Education Trustee for TTIA board.  I am also on the boards of TT Dialogues, Inc, and the Northwest Therapeutic Touch Institute.  In addition to working with people with special needs, my TT practice includes working with people with cancer, and those who are on hospice. I have presented Therapeutic Touch workshops internationally, particularly in working with people dealing with cancer and in the use of combining sound and music with TT. Teaching TT and being a TT practitioner are among my greatest joys.

Practical Applications of Therapeutic Touch: Deepening Our Practice of TT In Challenging and Changing Times Intuition is the whisper of the soul. J.

Dalai Lama XIV ****** It is in the still ambience of unconditional love that the call within can reach the level required to effectively project healing energy.
