Before moving to Idaho, I worked as a therapist New York City and am IFS informed and trained in Sex Therapy, Couples Therapy, EMDR, Attachment Focused therapy, CBT, Ketamine/Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy, and many more.
If you are reading this right now, you are probably feeling alone or in crisis -- and searching for relief. My work as a therapist is to provide you with a safe, judgement-free environment where you can openly discuss the areas of distress in your life where you want change. I offer a holistic, mindful approach to my practice and am trained in several evidence-based modalities shown to be effective in the treatment of depression, anxiety, sexual and intimacy issues, integration and trauma. Whether you've been struggling for years or are in the midst of recent issues now, hope is available and change is possible.

Most of my clients have experienced some kind of trauma and typically have experienced complex trauma. They need someone who is willing to listen without judgment, to meet them where they're at. My clients often express experiencing rigid environments (within their family growing up, abusive relationships, or possibly their religion) that have caused elevated stress responses. We will find ways to cope with that and process these past situations so they are no longer distressing. Therapeutic services can help piece all of their parts together so help them make sense of their situation and feel comfortable in meeting their goals.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapists
What is Internal Family Systems therapy?
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a type of talk therapy that focuses on sub-personalities, or “families,” within a person, which may be made up of wounded parts and unpleasant emotions like anger and shame. These sub-personalities can come into conflict with each other and with an individual’s core Self, leaving the person feeling detached from positive traits such as the “8 C’s” of confidence, calmness, creativity, clarity, curiosity, courage, compassion, and connectedness. By healing a patient’s wounded parts, a therapist aims to restore balance and bring on positive change.
How does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
An IFS therapist will work with a patient to identify their particular sub-personalities, recognize the emotions powering them, and release them. By doing so, the patient should become more able to address any underlying problems their sub-personalities may have been trying to protect them from. Ultimately, a patient discovers ways to manage internal and external conflicts on their own, through techniques such as relaxation exercises, journaling, and making charts depicting the relationships between their core Self and their distinct parts.
Does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
IFS therapy has been shown to help people address conditions such as depression, anxiety, panic, fears and phobias, trauma, and substance use disorders. Some research has also found that it can help individuals deal with symptoms of physical health conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, such as pain, everyday functioning, depressive feelings, and low self-compassion. There are some conditions for which IFS treatment, specifically discussions of one’s “parts,” may be less appropriate, such as schizophrenia or other states that involve psychosis or paranoia.
How long does Internal Family Systems therapy take?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for IFS therapy. After becoming comfortable with a therapist and the core concepts of IFS, some patients quickly make progress. While experiences vary, most will find that it is a relatively longer-term therapy, involving months and sometimes years of sessions.
