About me

somatic healing, healing trauma, healing developmental trauma, IFS therapy

MY HEALING

 

I work in body-oriented therapy because it resonates deeply with my own experiences. Throughout my childhood, I was often labeled as having behavior problems, a description that never felt accurate. The symptoms I exhibited were rooted in physiological changes in my body and brain resulting from the trauma I endured. Ironically, the more I sought to use my body for healing, the more resistance I encountered from mainstream approaches.

It wasn’t until adulthood that I truly grasped the concepts of bottom-up processing and somatic healing. When I finally experienced these methods, I knew I had found the right path. Now, I’m able to share the skills I’ve developed with others, creating a safe space for their own journey of discovery and healing.

Internal Family Systems

 

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a transformative therapy developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz that views the mind as composed of distinct "parts," each with its own thoughts and feelings.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a transformative therapy developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz that views the mind as composed of distinct "parts," each with its own thoughts and feelings. This approach helps individuals engage with these parts—such as the Protector and the Exiled—fostering healing and self-awareness.

IFS operates on the principle that every part has positive intentions, even if its methods are unhelpful. By cultivating compassion for these parts, clients can resolve internal conflicts, enhance emotional regulation, and achieve greater inner harmony.

When integrated with body-based modalities, IFS deepens the healing process. Somatic practices encourage clients to connect with their physical sensations, allowing them to access and process emotions stored in the body. This holistic approach enhances self-discovery and emotional balance, making it particularly effective for addressing anxiety, depression, and trauma.
