I believe that deep healing and the awakening of one’s true authentic Self comes only from creating a connection, understanding, acceptance, and love of oneself on all levels (mind, body, emotions, and spirit). It is for this reason that I trained in Transpersonal Psychology as well as holistic coaching practices based on the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of psychotherapy.
I offer Holistic Therapeutic Coaching which provides exactly that, a whole person approach to healing and personal development. Therapeutic coaching is a collaborative, co-creative, non-pathologizing, and client-led form of personal counseling. Guided by Transpersonal Psychology and holistic models of coaching, I work with the belief that you are innately whole, intuitively connected, creative, resilient, and resourceful, already having within you what is needed for healing, transformation, and leading a balanced fulfilled life.
What is Therapeutic Coaching? – Therapeutic Coaching offers the best of both coaching and therapy modalities. While coaching supports clients in building skills and actualizing personal goals, therapy is backed by psychological knowledge and mental health training, and offers therapeutic support. A Therapeutic Coach embodies both methods, having the education, knowledge, and experience to more effectively help their client attain their goals as well as the ability to support what inhibits and stands in their way. Therapeutic Coaching believes that the effectiveness of personal growth comes from healing and transformation, as well as the actualization of one’s strengths and innate resources.
What is a Holistic Approach? – A holistic approach addresses the whole or holistic health of a person: body, mind, emotions, and spirit. It works with the understanding that healing does not come solely from working with the mind or emotions, but comes from including the body’s intelligence and spiritual health as well. It understands the interconnectedness of oneself, as well as honors each part of the whole. A holistic approach works to understand and honor all parts of oneself toward inner harmony and true Self Leadership (see IFS below).
What is Internal Family Systems (IFS)? – Internal Family Systems model or IFS, was created by Richard Schwartz and applies family systems concepts to the intrapsychic realm (our internal psyche or world). The IFS model proposes that individuals’ subpersonalities interact and change in many of the same ways that families and other human groups do. It addresses the many parts of ourselves (our multiplicity) and the importance of creating harmony among them (much like an internal family that is within us). IFS promotes befriending, loving, and accepting all of our parts in order to create complete resonance and wholeness within. It helps one lead the many parts of themselves from their core or true Self, also known as Self Leadership. IFS is an incredibly efficient and powerful method for building inner harmony and balance in all areas of life. It is also commonly known as “Parts Work”. To learn more, visit here.
What is Transpersonal Psychology? – Transpersonal Psychology, also known as “spiritual psychology”, is a sub school of psychology with the goal of enhancing the study of mind-body relations, consciousness, and spirituality. Founded in the early works of Carl Jung, William James, and Abraham Maslow, it integrates the spiritual and transcendent aspects of the human experience with the framework of modern psychology. It validates the importance of including spiritual health within healing and personal growth work.
In Holistic Therapeutic Coaching work, you will discover and build access to your true authentic Self as well as your own innate healing capacity, resulting in deep transformation and the unearthing and realization of your fullest potential. You will discover and befriend the various parts of yourself through radical acceptance, love, and curiosity in order to unburden and heal stuck parts and allow for new pathways to emerge. Therapeutic Coaching work allows for various processes to take place, promoting insights and connections from the body, mind, emotions, and spirit to arise freely and intuitively.
This work is designed to help bring about healing and growth on all levels, some examples include finding wholeness, becoming heart-led, achieving Self Leadership, building confidence and self resiliency, transforming patterns, transcending fear and anxiety, overcoming limitations, actualizing your biggest potential, finding creative and emotional flow, building self awareness and self compassion, and many more.
