IFS Sessions at the Intersection of Contemplative Neuroscience & Spirituality

Non-Diagnostic

Non-Pathologizing

About IFS-Based Coaching:

IFS helps people conceptualize feeling-thinking-behaving patterns that cause suffering as parts of themselves. Together we can take a step back from these parts, find the negative self-beliefs they’re protecting us from and gradually unburden their pain. For people who want to make subconscious feelings and beliefs conscious to understand themselves better, unburden their pain and then empower personal growth. Sessions are held outside of the US healthcare system in a reasonably-priced coaching container to reduce barriers to this transformative modality. Healing happens in the presence of a compassionate witness and over the course of our time together, you will become your own compassionate witness.


Focus Areas

  • Worry, Catastrophizing and Fear at every level of your system

  • Self-Esteem & Self-Efficacy

  • Shame, Grief, Resentment and their Relationship to Each Other

  • Unburdening negative self-beliefs

    • Feeling too much

    • Not good enough

    • Like a burden

    • Worthless

    • Not beautiful

  • Life Transitions

  • Personal Growth Work

  • Spiritual Identity Formation  

  • Idealizing & Devaluing Others

  • Career Burnout & Compassion Fatigue

  • Intense Reactions to Others

  • Transforming Triggers into Trailheads for your own Growth

  • Coping with Painful Memories

  • LGBTQ+ Identity

  • Doing, being, belonging and becoming



Investing in your deep inner work is the greatest gift you can give the other people in your life: although hurt people hurt people, healed people heal people. The most regulating thing is another person and the most dysregulating thing is another person.
