Internal Family Systems

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a neurobiologically informed, brain based therapy model that considers the mind to be made of different parts. IFS is the new paradigm that shows that humanity is inherently good and thoroughly interconnected. This allows us to shift from being ego, family, and ethno-centric to species, bio and planet centric, as Dr. Schwartz, the developer of IFS, points out.

IFS therapy has become one of the most respected, trauma-informed therapeutic models available today. Instead of forcing you to relive traumatic memories or pushing you to confront overwhelming emotions before you’re ready, IFS provides a gentle, self-led process that supports deep emotional healing.

IFS understands trauma differently from many traditional therapies. Rather than focusing solely on the event, IFS focuses on how the trauma lives inside you now—in the Parts that carry fear, shame, grief, and pain.

As you embark on your healing journey, I will guide you in unburdening the parts of yourself still holding trauma, reconnecting with your core Self, and rebuilding a sense of safety from the inside out.

 

We all have a core Self - an essence of calm, clarity, compassion, and connectedness that is not affected by trauma. When we access our Self, we unlock the healing wisdom that is within all of us.
