IFS (Internal Family Systems)

IFS is a non-pathological evidence-based model of psychotherapy whose premise states that each of us has many aspects/parts (also known as sub-personalities) and a core essence, Self, who is a natural leader/healer. Parts take on burdens and protective roles to help cope with traumas, pain, overwhelming feelings and situations. Over time, these burdens and roles create imbalance, stress, constriction, even extreme responses to everyday events.The goal of IFS process is to welcome all parts, unburden extreme thinking, feeling, and behaviors so there is harmony, whereby all parts have access to resources, choice and internal leadership.For more information: https://ifs-institute.com/

Brainspotting

Brainspotting is an evidence-based practice that supports your body and brain through identifying and focusing on your unique eye positions associated with stored feelings, sensations, and thoughts connected to unresolved/painful or positive past and present experiences. Brainspotting helps to process this information, to release constrictions and integrate new patterns for your well-being.For more information: https://brainspotting.com/
