Does IFS therapy work?

IFS therapy is my favorite method of therapy for myself and for clients because I have seen it work again and again. IFS is different from solution-focused therapies that provide quick solutions to your current issue. IFS provides a framework that can be used to navigate difficult situations for the rest of your life. I use it daily. It is an incredible way to rewire the brain after painful experiences.

What religious/spiritual groups do you typically see?

I help clients from all religious/spiritual backgrounds deconstruct and adjust after a faith transition or crisis. Groups I typically work with are Mormon, IBLP, Southern Baptist, Catholic, PCA, fundamentalist, and people who attended Bob Jones University.

How long is therapy?

I see my clients as much or as little as they need. Some of my clients see me weekly, some bi-weekly, and some once a month.

What is purity culture recovery?

Purity culture creates sexual expectations often based on gender. People who exhibit sexuality that differs from heterosexual sexuality in the confines of marriage are considered “evil,” often resulting in toxic shame and self-punishment. It can lead to difficult sexual encounters and pressure, especially for women, to please rather than find mutual pleasure and self-exploration. Purity culture recovery in therapy can help clients rediscover their sexual identities and free themselves from shame.

Does virtual therapy work?

Yes! In some ways, virtual therapy can be better than in-person. You have the privacy and safety of your own home to discuss personal details of your life. For clients that have an abuse history with authority figures, it can also add a layer of safety to meet virtually. During my graduate program, I was trained on how to provide competent online counseling.
