You are unhappy, but you don’t know where to start? Life leaves you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and sometimes alone. You want to make changes but are afraid of upsetting those around you and struggle to say what you really feel. You struggle to find joy in activities that once brought you happiness. This is not the life you imagined and you wonder if these issues stem from your childhood experiences? You’re not alone. Many people find themselves caught in a cycle where their past impacts their daily lives. Often, the roots of these feelings trace back to our childhoods, where patterns and beliefs about ourselves were formed.
But you can break free from these cycles and feel more connected with yourself and create a joyful and fulfilling life. Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy offers a unique and compassionate approach to understanding and healing from the patterns that you might be experiencing. As an IFS Informed Therapist I am with you every step.
Together, we’ll work to identify and address the underlying issues that contribute to your current challenges enabling you to break free from these cycles. If you feel ready to take the next step or are curious about how working together might be beneficial for you, feel free to reach out. I'm just a call away and would love to hear from you.

I use IFS as a core modality as it offers a unique and compassionate approach to understanding and healing from the patterns we experience. It is based on the idea that our mind is made up of different "parts" or sub-personalities, each with its own perspectives, emotions, and roles. These parts can develop in response to early life experiences and influence how we feel and behave in our lives.
