About Me
At Let's Work On That, we invite you to explore your inner world with genuine curiosity. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, we compassionately guide you to understand the different parts of yourself. This approach helps those feeling conflicted or overwhelmed, offering a path to greater self-awareness and lasting recovery. We believe in your perseverance as you uncover new strengths and find inner balance.
Approach
Therapy unfolds as a careful choreography of noticing, naming and gently rearranging the voices inside you so that distress becomes navigable rather than overwhelming. In Brunswick or online in English, sessions are steady and collaborative — we track sensations, slow down activating moments, and try small experiments between meetings to test new ways of relating to urges, food, memories or self-criticism. I pace work to your tolerance, using grounding and guided attention to build safety. People facing trauma, eating struggles or persistent inner conflict often find this approach steadying.
