IFS is a phenomenal, deeply transformative experience
and it has been a real gift to be able to take this journey with Josie.
Her calm, sensitivity, and skill have allowed me to explore and reevaluate
difficult memories and patterns in a safe and compassionate environment.
This profound healing has been genuinely life-changing.

THE FOUNDER OF IFS IS DR. RICHARD SCHWARTZ.
Schwartz began work in family therapy with a systems approach and discovered, through listening carefully to his clients with eating disorders and self harming behaviours, that we have our own internal set of "parts" which effect our psychology on a daily basis, and a "self" which is underneath, connected to something greater than ourselves and completely unaffected by traumas. It is a resource which when reached can provide important insights, confidence and compassion. HE INTRODUCES HIS MODEL HERE.

DEREK SCOTT, BEFORE HE SADLY PASSED AWAY IN FEB 2024, WAS DIRECTOR OF IFSCA (IFS Canada).
Having trained with Richard Schwartz for many years, Derek led the Stepping Stones training I completed in Dec 2023. He was a wonderful teacher, rigourous, humerous and deeply committed to the model and its capacity for personal and interpersonal transformation.

LIFE COACHING WITH JOSIE WEBBER
Informed by Richard Schwartz' IFS (Internal Family Systems)
Do you sometimes feel surprised by how triggered you can feel?
Does your inner critic often dominate your thoughts?
Do you feel stuck in your current situation and overwhelmed by the options?
Is there a part of you that lacks confidence?
Do you feel that anxiety is getting in the way of your work or relationships?
Do you have polarised views when trying to make decisions?
Is there a part of you that sabotages your plans with addictive behaviours?
Do you long to find refuge from the constant chatter in your mind?
WHAT IS IFS?
INTERNAL FAMILY SYSTEMS IS A THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
WHICH CAN HELP YOU FIND CLARITY, CALM AND SELF-COMPASSION.
IFS is NON-PATHOLOGISING.
We avoid making assumptions from a diagnosis.
Instead we aim to get to know what is going on for you personally.
In IFS we learn why we have certain patterns of reacting.
Often the reasons behind our harsh outer or inner responses which sabotage our intentions, is self-protection.
During coaching sessions I help you find resources to bring to the vulnerable places within yourself, so that you no longer feel so triggered when difficult situations or decisions arise.
AS AN IFS COACH, I WILL ASK YOU QUESTIONS DIRECTING YOUR FOCUS INWARD, TO HELP YOU IDENTIFY PARTS OF YOURSELF THAT HAVE A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN YOUR CURRENT MINDSET.
You may find that some parts have suffered difficult experiences and still have unmet needs.
Witnessing the stories and any unexpressed feelings/extreme beliefs can enable you to find compassion,
and meet the parts’ needs going forward.
When welcomed and fully heard, parts can recover, and play a healthier, less sabotaging role in our system.
WE ALL CAN, WITH THE RIGHT SUPPORT,
CHOSE WHICH PART OF OURSELVES IS IN THE DRIVING SEAT.
I AM QUALIFIED AS AN IFS-INFORMED COACH RATHER THAN A CERTIFIED IFS THERAPIST.
This means I am qualified to help you if you are currently functioning "OK", but want to get to a level where you feel you are thriving.
IF YOU FEEL YOU HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH YOUR MENTAL HEALTH FOR SOME TIME,
YOU MAY NEED TO SEE A CERTIFIED IFS THERAPIST.
