The solutions you've been seeking are closer to home than you realize
It’s what you can’t see that is holding you back
The Family Imprint Institute supports you to restore relationships & establish resilient boundaries by dismantling family patterns.
Still having issues after everything you’ve tried?
Stress that affected 1 generation will be played out in the next generation.
We all have aspects of our parents, grandparents – even great grandparents’ history that we haven’t considered that is still affecting us today

I’m Johanna Lynn
You may be surprised to discover that most of what we struggle with in ourselves has roots in our family history.
The emerging science of epigenetics helps to explain why we may think:
“This is just my life, full of struggle or financial hardship”
– or we may say to ourselves:
“I’ve always been let down in my relationships, I guess this is how it will always be”.
What makes this work so effective and unique is using a systemic approach to find new and creative solutions to personal, relationship, health or work related issues.
My Work Supports You To….
- Strengthen Essential Relationships
- Release Painful Childhood Experiences
- Thrive after Separation / Divorce
- Restore Co-parenting Dynamics
- Reconnect with Children or Siblings

What if the recurring challenges in your life give the clues for the solution you’ve been seeking?
When you include family history you can find what others may have missed.
