Are you a mom or helping professional feeling burned out? Have you found talk therapy helpful but want to try something new? Have you heard about Internal Family Systems (IFS) and want to experience the model? IFS has been described as “what I hoped therapy would be” because it's genuinely compassionate and non-pathologizing. Instead of trying to force change, IFS facilitates organic transformation through a process of connecting with thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I've enjoyed working with clients from all over the mitten thanks to the accessibility telehealth offers.

As a Certified IFS Clinician, I specialize in providing IFS therapy to women and often work with helping professionals and parents. I’ve been privileged to witness enduring healing and growth thanks to IFS. If you’re seeking a space for integration and relief, please reach out. I'd be delighted to discuss working together!

Why would you see a Marriage and Family Therapist for individual therapy? A common misperception is that LMFTs only work with couples and families. My training taught me to view people within the context of relationships, both past and present, internal and external, which sets a meaningful, non-pathologizing foundation for individual work.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

I use Internal Family Systems. In your first session, we'll do a general intake to get a lay of the land, so to speak. Then we'll explore doing insight work together where I'll guide you in a process of focusing inside to connect with thoughts, sensations and emotions with curiosity and compassion. Clients are often blown away by the power of this experiential process.
