ON-LINE OR IN-PERSON (CENTRAL LONDON)
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a groundbreaking, evidence-based modality that’s helped countless people worldwide, including myself, experience profound, lasting change.
It’s a powerful way of accessing the different “parts” of your psyche to understand what’s driving you in different circumstances. It could be a critical inner voice, a protective stance, a response you’re having to something, or an on-going feeling. It can also be a physical pain or symptom.
Together, we approach these parts without judgment, building a compassionate, supportive relationship with them and between the different parts. You’ll gain clarity about the concerns motivating specific thoughts, emotions, choices, behaviours and reactions, as well as understanding why they took on this role.
In this way, we gently untangle the patterns or challenges you identify as limiting. By addressing the root cause, and providing the connection and healing each part needs, you’ll release old burdens and unresolved trauma allowing you to step into a fuller, more vibrant, and loving version of yourself.
Experiential and process-oriented, IFS is more than a method, it’s a way of relating to your inner world that can be integrated into your daily life. As you transform your relationship with yourself, you naturally shift how you perceive and engage with others and the world around you.
Unlocking Growth, Healing and connection
IFS can support a wide range of life experiences. I’ve helped clients navigate career challenges, explore parenting dynamics, and increase sexual fulfilment. It’s helped individuals through the grieving process, assisted in integrating psychedelic journeys, and deepened their understanding of spiritual experiences. To help you decide if IFS is right for you, you can take this 2 minute self-assessment quiz created by the founder of IFS.

A LITTLE MORE ABOUT IFS
The model recognises that our psyche is naturally multiple and that’s a good thing. Some of our parts help manage our day-to-day life, some have protective roles, and other parts hold our deepest vulnerabilities and emotional burdens. No parts are bad!
Through experiences and circumstances, often when we are growing up, our parts can be forced from their most valuable and flexible states, into extreme and rigid roles. This generates recurring patterns of thoughts, behaviours and responses that can become unhelpful and limiting in our present life.
Often, these parts sit in the driver’s seat, unconsciously running our responses and feelings. But when these parts become led by our core or true Self, we experience greater freedom, trust and peace. Self energy is in everyone. It can’t be damaged, and it knows how to heal!
Developed by Richard Schwartz Ph.D, originally a family systems psychotherapist, IFS is an evidence-based psycho-spiritual model with therapeutic benefits that’s helped people to heal from physical and mental ailments, past trauma and addictions. It helps cultivate inner harmony, reduces internal conflicts, and empowers you to navigate day-to-day life with a grounded, resilient sense of Self.
