Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapists in 95062

Relating with people and witnessing growth is what I love most. It is my honor to support you when you’re feeling stressed out, anxious, invisible or depleted. I hold a somatic (body-based) perspective that is empathetic, patient and curious. I am receptive to that which naturally emerges through thoughts, emotions, sensations, images and memories in each session. I approach personal narratives with openness & compassion.

It's not easy being human and you aren't meant to navigate life alone. Living in the modern world it's easy to lose connection to yourself, others, and nature. You might suffer from anxiety, depression, physical pain or a general lack of purpose and joy. With a busy life, you often can’t pause long enough to reflect and make the changes you most need to make. You want to heal so you can live into your soul's unique purpose and want to make the time for soulful exploration and personal growth. The good news is, psychotherapy (literally meaning "soul healing"), has its root in this powerful work and you don't have to do it alone.

We all deserve to live a life that is full of joy, connection, and meaning. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgemental space where you can heal past wounds and examine thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that may no longer be serving you. With an open mind and empathetic presence, I help my clients find internal peace so that they can live a life that feels congruent with their beliefs, values and hopes for the future.

Your healing can start today! In addition to being an LMFT, my approach extends beyond talk therapy to include holistic/integrative methods. I help individuals get to the root of their problems that lie hidden outside of awareness. My approach is highly influenced by mindfulness practice. You will be guided in each session to build your capacity for present moment focus using breath and body awareness and radical acceptance. This liberates heavy energy and/or pain associated with thoughts and feelings that may have been hidden or stuck. Are you ready to discover what's possible in a collaborative healing relationship? Reach out!

"Stuck." At some point in our lives, we all feel it. I help people link their desire for things to be different to the places they feel stuck, healthfully and effectively. You don't need to know how to change, we start with where you are. I like the Chinese proverb, "Acceptance and change are brothers, but acceptance is the older brother." By helping you learn to first accept where you are (even if now it seems impossible), suffering is naturally reduced and there is more energy and room for growth. You get to like yourself now AND change.

Having relationship issues? I am here to help! I am Level 2 Gottman Method Couples Certified. Let me evaluate your communication and share effective tools that will help your relationship to thrive!

As a trauma-informed somatic psychotherapist I strive to create a safe space for you to develop a deeper understanding of the beliefs, behaviors and experiences that impact your wellbeing. My practice is non-pathologizing and I honor the complexity and richness of your story. I believe in your ability to heal under the right conditions and I work with clients who are ready to stoke the fires of change and explore what it means to live authentically. I use mindfulness, Hakomi and IFS strategies to help deepen your exploration, address unhealthy patterns and integrate practices that support however you want to live in the world.

Hi, I'm Kristin Roberts. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist in Northern California. I see individual adults, couples, families, and minors (14-17). I specialize in treating trauma and use EMDR and brainspotting. I'm also IFS informed and use that modality to heal client's inner adult/child parts of self. I treat anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, grief, relationship distress in friendships, family dynamics, and with couples.

It takes courage to make it here, and I’m so glad you did.

We all hit points in life where we feel stuck or uncertain of how to cope and move forward. As humans, stress and pain is inevitable, but you don’t have to work through it alone. I'm here to help you navigate your challenges and experience greater ease, satisfaction, and intimacy with life. My work is focused on supporting you to connect with your inner wisdom, shift how you relate with yourself, and remember your unique gifts. With a holistic approach, honoring mind, body, spirit, I believe that you are whole, resilient, and capable of growing and healing.

Life can be overcome by stress easily, and for some of us that stress becomes unbearable. Thoughts and feelings become overwhelming, leaving life feeling out of control and chaotic. In my work, I bring a wealth of curiosity and compassion to exploring a person's inner world of thoughts and feelings. Through this exploration, clients find deep internal healing and develop meaningful satisfaction in their work, relationships, and most of all within themselves. I am trained in Internal Family Systems therapy, which has given me a means to help people reach their goals and create the life they long for.

Perhaps you are feeling stuck, trapped or anxious. Maybe you believe you don't measure up to what you assume others expect of you or what you expect of yourself. These feelings and beliefs frequently indicate aspects in your life rooted in early life trauma that are trying to get your attention, but can feel intolerable and unbearable at times. Growing the ability to connect with the many parts and experiences of your life in a new way could be key. Learning to relate with compassion to the beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and concerns that arise can be an invitation for new understanding, meaning, and creativity.

Welcome. If you’re reading this, it probably means you are looking for something different. If you are looking for individual therapy, I believe I can be of best support to those who have already begun their healing work and are ready to dive deeper. This might involve utilizing current high-tech approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS) or Somatic Therapy (e.g. Hakomi), as well as mindfulness and present-moment focused therapy, or possibly delving deeper into your psychological history. However, I am confident, ready, and willing to meet people wherever they are at on their journey. Additionally, I enjoy working with couples.

At points in life we all find ourselves in a place of not knowing. Not knowing how to manage feelings, thoughts, and experiences; not knowing what to do about or how to recover from life events; not knowing how to be with others or with the difficulties that arise from being alive and human. I view therapy as a tool for healing and healing as something that begins when we learn how to listen to and relate to ourselves differently in times of uncertainty. I help individuals, couples and families of diverse backgrounds and identities transform how they relate to themselves and to others in a way that opens the door for healing.

Hello! First, let me tell you a bit about myself: I have over 20 years of experience in the field of mental health, both in community agencies and in private practice. I currently specialize in treating individual adults. I enjoy meeting you, wherever you are at in your life, with respect and caring. I am authentic and accepting, and provide a safe, confidential space for you to explore your past and what you want for your present and future. In therapy with me, you can turn emotional pain or stress into something lighter, and progress on a path toward greater happiness and health.

My specialty is supporting humans on their path of healing and thriving. I offer a safe space to explore all parts of yourself so you can uncover deeper meaning and access inner peace. I work in the realms of intimacy/relationships, managing stress and anxiety, personal growth, adult ADHD, healing from trauma, holistic wellness (mind/body/spirit) and integrating expanded states of consciousness (spiritual, psychedelic). My clients are often free-thinkers, seekers, passionate and sensitive souls, trying to find balance. I work with individuals and couples in creating more balanced and fulfilling lives.

Large and small traumas can stack up over the course of a lifetime disconnecting us from ourselves and others and leaving us feeling anxious, depressed and overwhelmed. With warmth, humor and directness I work with you to rediscover lost parts of yourself and work on the behaviors that helped you at one point but are no longer serving you. I work with couples who are dealing with conflict, feelings of betrayal, intimacy issues or disconnection. I love helping you find your way back to one another.

Change and growth are hard but regressive change is ultimately harder. My approach to change is integrative: mind, body, spirit, social. My decades of experience enable me to bring objectivity, knowledge, and compassion to our task of uncovering your truth and your path to individual and relational health. As a psychology professor I stay current with new research. I use a diverse set of tools to help you achieve your goals: IFS, CBT, EFT, EMDR, trauma-informed therapy, and Neurofeedback. I am a communications expert who uses powerful tools to implement research-backed processes to help your relationships thrive.

I offer compassionate virtual therapy for individuals in Montana and California. I am a licensed Therapist who uses Internal Family Systems (IFS). I specialize in helping navigate life transitions and the accompanying confusion, fear and loss. I aim to help you find your strengths in moments of hopelessness and use the skills you may not know you have.

This is not always easy work. Exploring trauma, sadness, anxiousness, fear, doubt, insecurities, change, and more can be challenging and even scary. So much has shifted in our world, it feels as if it has also unearthed new chances to also allow ourselves to grow. I imagine that’s why you’re here, searching for ways to connect with and support these parts of yourself, or to help a younger loved one do so. In my work, I choose to employ curiosity and acceptance, informed by models such as Internal Family Systems, to gently lean into change and healing at the client's pace.
