Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy is a powerfully transformative model of psychotherapy. IFS believes we are a system of valuable parts that all have unique strengths and qualities. We all have a core Self, our innate healer. Working to build the strength of your Self is at the heart of the model.
IFS is a movement. A new, empowering paradigm for understanding and harmonizing our inner experience in a way that impacts how we experience the world. IFS helps people heal by building Self-compassion and validating all of our internal experiences.
At Counselling for Women, all of your parts are welcome and valued. We believe fundamentally that every part of you has an important role that, once uncovered, allows you to flourish!
For more information about IFS from the founder, Dr. Richard Schwartz, watch this video. Come back afterward to connect with an IFS informed therapist.
EMDR is the gold-standard for treating PTSD, complex trauma, and adverse experiences. EMDR helps you find the stuck places where trauma continues to create mental, emotional, and physical triggers and works to reprocess, heal, and change the ways that trauma impacts your life.
EMDR is a beautiful compliment for IFS therapy and can support the unburdening and recovery of your parts that are suffering.
EMDR therapy will be available online in Ontario and Manitoba or in-person in Beausejour beginning November, 2024.
