Internal Family Systems therapy encourages people to embrace all parts of themselves, even the difficult ones. Its goal is to help people achieve balance and harmony within themselves.
IFS states that people do not have “bad” parts. Instead, they experience difficulty embracing all aspects as simultaneously affecting one another. IFS seeks to name and understand these parts and ultimately balance the factors that work toward self-growth.
Life experiences can encourage the various parts of the self to become out of balance, forcing the system into a less-than-harmonious operating state. Your IFS counselor will help you recognize these parts of yourself, inquire as to why you think they might be off-balance, and then assist you in balancing them.
People with a wide range of mental health concerns can benefit from IFS, but it is particularly effective for those who have dealt with traumatic experiences.

I believe that everyone has much to tell, and I'd love to hear your story. I am passionate about helping people live the lives they desire, holding space for mystery and wonder as each person’s path unfolds, and integrat...
**I am currently not accepting new clients** You look around and ask yourself “Is this really my life right now?” Some days are okay, some are uncomfortable, and others are intolerable.

Maybe your child’s...

As an embodiment-based, relational therapist with a neurobiological lens, I am here to help in the...

Self-esteem issues, relationship problems, or difficult transitions - everyone needs help navigating life sometimes. I encourage self-compassion and champion the idea that we can rewrite our stories at any age. I see our lives as a novel - who we are at chapter 13 is not who we have to be at chapter 27. Proactively taking steps toward who we want to become in future chapters is one of the best...
