What’s in a name?
Four Lines counseling’s name is inspired by a passage from the book A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. The following lines communicate repair, connection, empathy, and belonging, the qualities intrinsic to Debra’s approach to care.
“Four lines, and the world went quiet.
I'm sorry for telling everyone about your mum, read the first line.
I miss being your friend, read the second.
Are you okay? read the third.
I see you, read the fourth, with the I underlined about a hundred times.”
- Patrick Ness, A Monster Calls
