Internal Family Systems is form of psychotherapy that is based on the notion that we all have internal ‘parts’ that take on various roles throughout the lifespan and a ‘self’. Awareness of parts through the IFS lens can help cultivate inner resources such as confidence, compassion and self-trust. This model normalizes and celebrates the multiplicity of the mind and provides a non-pathologizing framework for understanding ourselves and each other. It is incredibly helpful in addressing common issues like overwhelming emotions, disturbing thoughts and unwanted behavior. 

I am an IFS level 2-trained therapist and you can learn more about IFS here.

As a teacher of yoga and yoga nidra, I have a passion for creating space for compassionate mind/body awareness, relaxation and healing. I believe that one of the most useful skills for developing self-awareness, creating change and improving quality of life is the practice of mindfulness.

I offer a “Mindfulness Meditation for Beginners" group (weekly classes and workshop-style) and individual meditation/mindfulness sessions. More info on these classes/workshops can be found here.
