Internal Family Systems

 "There's a part of all of us that longs

to know that even what's weakest about

us is still redeemable and can ultimately

count for something good" 

Fred Rogers

Have you ever caught yourself saying, "Part of me is psyched about this upcoming move, but another part is seriously terrified and just wants to stay with what I know,' or 'My relationship is great so I don't understand why I feel trapped sometimes"?  If so, you're not alone. But have you ever dug into who these parts are and why they can't seem to agree, stirring up all that inner chaos? And why, sometimes, does something, that feels like ancient history still hold so much sway over your emotions today? Are you ready for a new paradigm in the way we approach healing together? Walk with me as we get to know and come to truly appreciate your unique internal family

​

In the sacred space of your psyche, a therapeutic journey unfolds, as you're gently guided through an intricate dance of healing with a gentle, holistic touch. Especially tailored for those navigating the labyrinth of trauma and painful pasts, IFS provides a compassionate, non-pathologizing approach. Life's twists and turns may have left you feeling trapped, overwhelmed, or like a solitary tree in the storm, AND transformation is possible!

​

Here, within the leadership of your highest, wisest Self, we extend a warm invitation to every facet of your being. Learn more about Your Inner Critic, who may be trying to help you avoid the painful judgement of others, your Super Worrier, who SO desperately wants to keep you safe, your Social Media Doom-Scroller, who just wants to help you avoid replaying that fight you just had, or your Guard Dog at the Gate, who isn't going to let anyone hurt that Scared Little One, ever again... all integral, each bearing a sacred purpose in the tapestry of your life. Together, we delve into the stories these parts carry, unveiling and unburdening the hidden wounds that tether you to the past.  Envision your true Self, using the natural gifts of curiosity, open-heartedness, compassion, and clarity, guiding these parts towards harmony, rooted grounding, and Self-led growth.

Are you ready for a journey where you not only find the healing power of Self but embrace every part of you (seriously warts and all)? Kind of gives a new meaning to the idea of Self-love, right?

Dropping Keys

The small woman

Builds cages for everyone

she knows,

While the Sage,

Who has to duck her head

when the moon is low,

Keeps dropping keys all night long

For the

Beautiful

Rowdy

Prisoners.

Hafiz
