About My IFS Counseling

My IFS Counseling Practice

What does an IFS session look like? We usually start with the client giving an overview of what is going on for them, then we begin to narrow down the overview to a specific area they would like to focus on for this days session.

In partnership, the client looks/feels/senses inside their inner world. Being curious to see what parts of themselves need to be heard, understood and healed.

We approach this work with compassion, curiosity, courage, calmness and creativity. As the client becomes adept at this approach, the counseling becomes more and more Client/Self lead.

In using the IFS approach we find that all the healing our systems need are available thru identifying our truest Selves, and having that Self come forward to do the healing. I have witnessed this in myself and in so many, many clients.

There are significant differences between the IFS approach to counseling and other forms of counseling. Since we can only change ourselves it is appropriate that IFS is all about ourselves. Traditional therapies can focus on what “he/she did”… IFS focuses on the part of me that behaves in a certain way or that reacted to what he/she did. This gives us great agency to create our lives as we wish.

What IFS therapy can do for you:

  • Target the specific psychological issues you want resolved.
  • Know your inner Self as the agent of transformation.
  • Transform stuck parts of yourself into inner resources of strength, love and freedom.
  • Shifting from old, frustrating patterns that have felt impossible to change, to a state of mind where you know you have more choices. This can be life altering.
  • Discover your inner wisdom and hidden strengths and how to access them.
  • Get to know your various parts (sub-personalities).
  • Learn about the common parts that most of us have, what they are trying to do, where they come from, and how they relate to other parts in you and other people.
  • Uncover your patterns of relating, patterns of emotions and actions, and lovingly partner with them to find transformation.
  • Access your hidden vulnerable parts for deep emotional healing.
  • Establishing an intimate, ongoing dialogue with one’s inner world results in an expansion and enhancement of personal identity, greater honesty and clarity in relationships, and a greater sense of purpose and direction in one’s vocation.

My Counseling Rates:

My counseling rate is $165 for a full 60 minutes. I charge $300 when working with couples/ partners/families for an hour and 15 minutes. I am very sorry to say that my sliding scale slots are all currently full.

I allow for a full 60 minute for individual sessions. This gives us more time to get a feeling of completion with each session. This added time can be a bonus for clients.

I am open to using Skype and FaceTime and Zoom. I am comfortable and enjoy working with a variety of families and individuals, and LGTBQ welcome. I’m sorry to say I cannot accept Insurance plans.

This work has been the most effective, most magical and most transformational approach to inner healing I have ever personally experienced and personally witnessed. Amazing. Truly Amazing!
