Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed Liberation Coaching

IFS is an evidence based model of psychotherapy and coaching that focuses on cultivating a relationship between our Self and our internal parts.

Self is the natural leader.

Self is a secular term we use in IFS to describe our soul; our essence; our seat of awareness; the ever present, all knowing, kind, compassionate, wise consciousness that we all are at our core.

We gain access to Self when we engage with our internal parts with courage and curiosity, creating an environment for abiding trust to grow. This trust enables our limiting beliefs to unburden and our unwanted, habitual patterns to evolve.

When we lead our lives from Self, we experience a level of confidence that can only arise when we are effortlessly aligned with our intelligence, our innate wisdom and our values.

Our relationships flourish. We thrive in every aspect of our lives. We give ourselves the lived experience of freedom that we all long for, and acquire the tools and Self awareness needed to navigate all of life’s challenges with grace.

Each and every one of us came into this lifetime with a map written into the the flesh of our hearts.

What you long for, longs for you.

These longings were not placed in our hearts for us to suffer never belonging to them. My mission as your coach is to reunite you with the innate perfection of your being, opening your awareness to your unique quirks and character traits that we refer in IFS as “parts”.

Parts seek only to be seen, heard and understood in order to become our greatest strengths and most loyal allies.

Liberation Coaching is for those of you who are on your life’s path but feel that there is still something missing; you want to be yourself but you have forgotten how; you know exactly what you want, you know how to get it, but there is still an inexplicable “something” in your way; you want more love, more creativity, more success, more flow, more abundance, more rest, more words, more music, more sex, more connection, more money, more friends, more innovation, more freedom - you want a life well lived.

The work we do together will open up space for you to become the great leader and healer of your own life, touching into and recallibrating every layer and aspect of your life - professional, relational, physical and spiritual.
