Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an approach to psychotherapy that identifies and addresses multiple sub-personalities or families within each person’s mental system. These sub-personalities consist of wounded parts and painful emotions such as anger and shame, and parts that try to control and protect the person from the pain of the wounded parts. IFS focuses on healing the wounded parts and restoring mental balance and harmony by changing the dynamics that create discord among the sub-personalities and the Self.
IFS therapy can treat individuals, couples, and families. It can effectively treat a variety of conditions and symptoms. These include:
Depression
Anxiety
Panic
Phobias
Trauma
Substance use
Physical health conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis

Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is an innovative and evidence-based treatment that combines the therapeutic effects of ketamine with psychotherapy to address a range of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma. Ketamine, a fast-acting medication, helps to temporarily alter brain chemistry, enabling deeper emotional processing and creating new pathways for healing.
During a KAP session, you will work closely with a trained therapist in a safe, supportive environment. The ketamine allows you to access difficult emotions and memories more easily, facilitating breakthroughs that can lead to lasting change. KAP is particularly effective for individuals who have not found relief through traditional therapies alone.
This approach is a powerful tool in the journey toward mental wellness, offering new hope and possibilities for those seeking profound and meaningful healing.

Psychedelic Integration Therapy
Psychedelic Integration therapy offers a supportive space to process and make meaning of insights, emotions, or challenges that arise from psychedelic experiences—whether from a guided journey or personal exploration. We do not provide or facilitate psychedelic sessions, but we offer post-experience support that helps integrate what emerged into your daily life with care, grounding, and intention.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on exploring the deep-rooted causes of emotional struggles, often stemming from childhood experiences and unconscious patterns. By gaining insight into these underlying issues, clients can better understand their emotions and behaviors. This approach helps individuals uncover unresolved conflicts and work toward long-term emotional healing and personal growth.
