Do you find yourself stuck in patterns you understand intellectually but can’t seem to shift?
Maybe you’re highly self-aware — perhaps even successful on the outside — yet still caught in relentless self-criticism, anxiety, or a pervasive sense of “not enough.” Therapy can offer more than insight — it can help you create meaningful, lasting change from within. I work with thoughtful individuals who are ready to go beyond coping strategies and work at the root level of their patterns. My approach is warm, non-pathologizing, and grounded in a deep respect for the complexity of the human mind and heart.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an evidence-based approach that views the mind as made up of distinct parts—like the inner critic or anxious protector. Instead of suppressing these parts, we explore their origins and intentions with curiosity and respect. This process fosters deeper self-awareness, internal coherence, and lasting change.
Feeling understood and valued in therapy is essential. Finding the right fit matters. If you’re curious about working together, I offer a free phone consultation to answer your questions and see if we’re a good match. I’d be honored to support you on your healing journey.
