Therapy with a difference
I am a UKCP certified and insured psychotherapist, a Certified IFS therapist (Level 3) and an Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO) couples therapist.
I also am trained as a couples therapist in Gottman relationship therapy Level 1 and 2 (with their Checkup questionnaire assessment and the Sound Relationship House model) and also integrating Imago Couples therapy.
Internal Family Systems helps you understand and heal your inner world, whilst giving you a new relationship with your Self. You can then return to your relationship using Intimacy from the Inside Out, helping to heal your heart and mind, in relationship with another person. Polyvagal nerve exercises, biofeedback and Neurofeedback help regulate your brain and nervous system to work better.
*****Please note I have no space currently for new clients (early 2024)*****
I also facilitate in person IFS monthly Drop Ins - not a therapy offer but a chance to learn and practice this wonderful paradigm. We start off with a IFS meditation. Then we have a topic (IFS and…) which I’ve researched and I give a talk about it, including a basic explanation of IFS. If my parts allow, I record some of these and they are available in the news section of this website.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a powerfully transformative, evidence-based model of psychotherapy. We believe we have a family of inner parts or personalities which contain valuable qualities and a core Self which knows how to heal, allowing us to become integrated and whole. An empowering paradigm, which is so engaging, relational and can be fun. Therapy like you've never known it!
Intimacy From the Inside Out (IFIO)
Intimacy from the Inside Out© (IFIO) is a model of couples therapy that draws primarily from IFS and uses the intimate relationship itself as a vehicle for growth and healing of the individual, as well as the couple. Deep and very powerful, its a model of differentiation, helping you both become more yourselves whilst being listened to by the other. It's possible to come out of the infinity fight loop and have very different conversations.
Stroud IFS Drop In
A monthly Stroud IFS informed Drop In, a chance to learn and practice IFS. Donations based: to cover room hire and the rest to 'The Long Table’ CIC. We decide together on topics and then I bring back what I’ve discovered and give a talk, for the first hour, including a basic explanation of IFS. The second hour is an IFS meditation and then sharing and active listening in small groups, before coming back to the main group for comments and discussion.
