When the Margins Meet is a therapeutic writing ebook for those who are living or have lived through the experience of migration. It includes 30 writing exercises created to help you name your longings, recognize your strengths, and find words for what remains suspended between two worlds. No judgment, no right or wrong answers. Just you, the page, and what needs to be expressed.
There are things that cannot fit inside a suitcase. Feelings suspended between two countries, between two languages, between who you were and who you are becoming.
This ebook was created to make space for exactly that.
It contains 30 therapeutic writing exercises for those who are going through — or have already gone through — the experience of migration. Letters to those who stayed behind. A map of your emotional survival. The small victories that weave your present together. The silence, the longing, the anxiety, and what they have to tell you.
This is not a clinical resource. It is a gentle companion, created to be opened at your own pace — sometimes with a cup of coffee, sometimes with tears, sometimes with the window open to a sky that does not yet feel entirely yours.
Therapeutic writing does not require perfection. It only asks for the willingness to listen to yourself with honesty and tenderness.
Created by Camila Silva, psychologist and Gestalt therapist, and an immigrant herself — someone who knows from within what it means to begin again.
Who it is for: immigrants, people going through new beginnings, and anyone seeking self-knowledge with kindness at any stage of their journey.
You do not need to be a writer. You only need to be yourself.
