Welcome to our

Online IFS therapy practice:

We primarily focus on Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy. We offer a compassionate and supportive online space designed to support your emotional well-being and personal growth.

Our approach is informed by the understanding that within each person resides an authentic Self – an innate source of wisdom, compassion, and capacity for personal development and well-being. We consider it an honour to accompany you on your IFS journey, supporting you in reconnecting with this inner Self and cultivating compassionate relationships with the inner parts that deeply need your care, connection, and understanding.

We aim to create a safe and nurturing environment where you feel truly supported, as fostering a sense of safety is fundamental for new learning and addressing emotional challenges. Through personalised, experiential sessions, we help you explore your inner world with kindness and curiosity, promoting greater self-awareness that can extend beyond immediate symptom management.

Our commitment to your personal growth and emotional balance extends to everyone. We offer compassionate support for individuals navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. Our experience includes working with presentations like ADHD, emotional neglect, neurodiversity, and exploring LGBTQI+ identities. Our inclusive practice warmly welcomes clients from all backgrounds, cultures, beliefs, and identities, fostering an environment where every part of you feels seen, valued, and understood.

While our primary focus is IFS, we draw upon a diverse range of evidence-based psychological approaches, reflecting our comprehensive training as Clinical Psychologists.

In IFS, we often find that the path to healing and growth lie in turning towards the parts of ourselves we've learned to avoid.

"The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek." Joseph Campbell

This philosophy guides our IFS approach, inviting you to courageously explore your inner world and discover the innate wisdom within.

Online IFS Therapy:

Welcoming All Parts of You

What are Parts?

When you pause and pay careful attention to what you are experiencing in the moment, you might notice signs/trailheads of the different parts that make up your personality. You might notice them as:

  • conflicting thoughts

  • unexplained emotions

  • triggered sensations

  • subtle urges

Most of the time, we function on automatic, without consciously examining why we do what we do and our parts drive our behaviour in ways that can be more or less satisfying. How parts are getting your through life can become quite apparent in those moments when you realise that even though you know how you would rather behave, you cannot get yourself to change.

IFS therapy offers a gentle way to explore, get to intimately know the how’s and why’s of your parts’ behaviour and work with your parts in a collaborative and respectful manner with the goal of re-balancing your inner experience, based on curiosity and self-compassion.

Through personalised, experiential sessions, we help you better understand these parts, supporting emotional balance and fostering greater self-awareness.

This approach goes beyond symptom relief, creating space for personal growth, insight, and emotional well-being.
