Internal Family Systems Coaching

If you have a feeling of “what got me here, won’t get me where I want to go,” then you’re in the right place. The most effective tool for transformation that I know of is Internal Family Systems (IFS), which is why I'm so obsessed with it as the best way to understanding ourselves and shift stuck patterns.

IFS is an evidenced-based psychotherapy model that starts with the premise that it's normal for all of us to have a number of sub-personalities (called parts) as well as a deeper true Self. IFS is a really useful technique if you're struggling with a change in your life, have a relationship or behavior pattern that you want to change (like a vocal inner critic, procrastination, or harmful anger), or are feeling stuck. Learn more about Internal Family Systems.

As an IFS practitioner and coach, I help you gain clarity about where you want go, how you want to feel and who you want to be. We then compassionately work with any parts that are in the way, scared or resisting change. I reflect the patterns and invisible stories I’m seeing, and gently challenge you-- all in service of aligning with what is important to you. 

We can work together on:

  • Confident and embodied leadership

  • Working with challenging emotions (anxiety, anger, etc.)

  • Overcoming fears and limiting beliefs

  • Career and life transitions

  • Building healthy relationships (to yourself, family, colleagues)

  • Confidence, self-esteem, and self-compassion

Working together

After a free intro session, I prefer to coach clients weekly or bi-weekly for at least four months, so we have time to dig in and see results. Sessions are 60 minutes held online via Zoom. Longer sessions (75 or 90 minutes) at prorated rates are also an option and recommended for deeper work.

Thank you for visiting! If you think working together might be the right fit, please contact me or book a free consultation directly:

What clients love about coaching with Steph:

“Working with Steph has been amazing.  Her passion and skill for IFS is very apparent.  She is so skilled at holding a strong, safe container for exploration.  Because I found it easy to trust her, I was willing to explore very vulnerable parts of myself.”

“Steph is incredibly skilled at creating a safe space for these sessions. Her infinite compassion and capacity to see the good in me, in each client, supports me completely as I dive deep into my own challenges, which makes her sessions consistently powerful.”
