About Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy
The Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy model is a way to understand your own inner-system, including the mind and your emotions, and assist it in the process of transformation and healing. IFS is based on the premise that there is an undamaged, resourceful ‘Self’ that is the very essence of each person. Accessing and working with the ‘Self’ is a safe, effective way to hold space and compassionately witness other parts of the mind.
What happens in an IFS session?
An IFS session with Maddy is individualised to each client, guiding them through their own inner system. As we are able to meet ourselves with honest, clear seeing, our inner-system feels lighter, less crowded, and with more possibility in life. As the inner-system begins to release long-held burdens, there is a feeling of inner transformation, limitless potential, and alignment with our truer ‘Self’. Maddy may also offer to combine art therapy within an IFS session.
Making an appointment
I currently offer sessions online only. While my capacity for new clients is limited, I do open up space periodically. If you're interested, I offer a free introductory phone call so we can get to know each other a little, explore what you're looking for, and answer any questions you may have about working together. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d love to hear from you.
What people say...
'Maddy’s capacity for holding space, being present, and creating connection is such a gift. Whether through embodied encounters in yoga, or in the contemplative spaces of art-making and meditation, I always feel completely welcomed and safe to arrive just as I am. And every time, I find myself leaving lighter in step, clearer in intention, and so very open in heart. '
