THE IFS CENTER OF CA

WHERE WE HEAL YOURSELF

Welcome to the IFS Center of California, a compassionate therapy practice created where stories are honored, pain is held with care, and healing comes from within. At the heart of our practice is Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy, a powerful, compassionate approach designed to support individuals, children, couples, and families navigate the challenges of trauma. Whether you're seeking to heal from past wounds, strengthen relationships, or foster emotional growth, IFS therapy offers a pathway to understanding your inner world and creating lasting change. Our skilled therapists are here to guide you on a journey of self-discovery, helping you reconnect with your true self and experience greater peace, resilience, and connection in all aspects of life.

How We Can Support You

  • Adults

    Many people come to therapy carrying the impact of trauma — painful experiences that leave parts of us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. In our work together, we will explore both big “T” trauma (major events normally seen as traumatic such as death of a loved one, natural disasters, violence, abuse or serious accidents) and little “t” trauma (events that don’t involve violence or disaster, but cause significant distress in one’s life) and how these events have impacted your life.

    Our therapists recognize that we all have different “parts” within us — some that protect, some that hold pain, and all of them trying their best to help us navigate life. Together, we’ll create a safe, nonjudgmental space to get to know your inner world with curiosity and compassion.

  • Kids and Teens

    Children and teens often carry emotional pain in ways that aren’t always easy to see. Whether it’s the impact of trauma, anxiety, big life changes, or struggles with identity and relationships — therapy can offer a space for healing and support. In our work together, we use the Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach to help young people better understand their emotions and the different “parts” of themselves that show up in response to stress, fear, or past experiences.

    Our goal is to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where your child feels seen and supported, and where meaningful change can happen at a pace that feels right for them — and for your family.

  • Couples

    Couples at any stage of their relationship — whether dating, engaged, married, or co-parenting — deserve to have the connection and partnership they truly desire. We understand that healthy, safe relationships are essential to our well-being, and we commend you for being motivated to invest in your relationship, whether you're looking to strengthen it or heal from challenges.

    Using the Internal Family Systems- Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFS-IFIO) model, we help couples explore the different “parts” of themselves that show up in their relationship — from past wounds to protective patterns that may be getting in the way. Together, we’ll work on strengthening communication, resolving conflicts, and fostering deeper understanding and empathy. Through this process, you can rebuild trust, improve emotional connection, and create the kind of relationship you both deserve.

  • Families

    Family relationships can be some of the most rewarding — and also the most challenging. When the family system isn’t functioning well, it often takes a thoughtful, specialized approach to uncover the root of the conflict and begin to heal. In family therapy, our therapist will work alongside you and your family members to identify the patterns, pain, and protective dynamics that may be driving disconnection.

    Through the lens of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, we support each family member in exploring the “parts” of themselves that show up in conflict — often shaped by past experiences or unmet needs. Whether we meet with the whole family or only those most impacted, the goal remains the same: to create meaningful reconnection, improve communication, and build lasting relationship resilience for the future.

“Healing doesn’t mean the trauma never existed. It means the damage no longer controls your life.” - Akshay Dubey
