My speciality and niche is using IFS to help heal attachment injuries and wounds.

• Emotional Insight, Regulation, and Integration utilizing Internal Family Systems

  • Learning healthy, compassionate ways to connect to emotional sensations(different parts of us) that may be causing discomfort or limiting freedom. I assist individuals and couples in learning how to find, connect, and attune to these parts in order to enhance the relationship within and heal limiting beliefs, relational trauma experiences, burdens, and pain. IFS offers connection to our core self-energy and the state of being our bodies, mind, and spirits crave. Internal Family Systems offers wonderful opportunity for many people and is a highly growing modality of evidenced based therapy modalities that clients and healers are seeking.

• Attachment and Relationship Issues

  • My niche and speciality is assisting others in transitions in their relationship/attachment life. A few areas of experience are assessing and identifying relationship needs and working on skillset to get needs met, navigating divorce or transition, changing dating experiences or relationship patterns, exploring family of origin impacts (individually or relationally), and wanting to enhance the relationship within self. Learning your own attachment styles and needs are crucial for assessing needs throughout many areas of life.

  • I specialize in using IFS to assist clients in connecting internally to gain clarity in regards to their needs in current relationships. Often times, our parts conflict when we are in a relationship and it’s arrived at the point of “Should I stay or should I leave?” Parts of you may want to stay for many good reasons and parts may want to leave for many good reasons. I help clients connect and gain clarity internally on what is best for their entire nervous system, body, and life.

  • I am a safe, open place for all relationship contexts: monogamy, consensual non-monogamy, poly, kink, and LGBTQ+ communities.

• Codependency/Boundaries

  • I enjoy helping people navigate where their emotional responsibility begins and where their responsibility ends. Often in our upbringing or previous relationships, we’ve had experiences of unhealthy boundaries and expectations. Sometimes, we take on roles in our childhood that extend into adulthood and cause difficulties. It’s important to know where control and power truly lie. Here are few sensations that may indicate this as an area worth exploring: shame (often feeling small or bad about oneself if mistakes or humanness occurs), guilt for choosing self or saying no, high inner critic activity and pressure to think of others first, & inability to connect to needs or body sensations. If any of this resonates, there is relief that exists.
