Sheila and Jasmine are Level 2 and Level 3 trained in IFS respectively. They are grateful to have been trained by Lead Trainers Kay Gardner, Cece Sykes and Pam Krause, three of the better known pioneers in the field from the USA.
Both Sheila and Jasmine are IFS certified therapists, which requires a minimum of two years experience using the model, regular consultation with an IFS supervisor, an abundance of hours using the model and participation in extra trainings. As a fun fact, their incredible supervisor has worked with the likes of Bessel van der Kolk of 'The Body Keeps The Score' fame.
Both offer international timeslots to spread the IFS Self-love with folks in as many countries as possible.

What drew me to IFS?
‘No Bad parts’. That statement drew me to IFS. From there I learnt so much more and I continue to learn (and I love everything I learn). To move from a position within myself where I thought I had so much wrong with me that needed to be changed to the concept that I had no bad parts and just needed to understand them better was transformative and life changing for me both personally and professionally.
Professionally I struggled with the concept of encouraging people to ignore their feelings as well as with the idea that if you stopped drinking, using etc. you would solve the problem. In addiction, the step to drink, use drugs or whatever the addiction may be was just the last step, and I really wanted to get in as far back as I could in the first few steps of addiction for clients to see if change could be affected there.
It turns out that this approach isn't just for addressing addiction but for any pattern in our lives that causes concern. It's also about getting to know ourselves better and discovering hidden skills and talents by learning how to harness the positive intent of our internal protectors and parts, instead of letting them keep our 'exiles' tucked away. Now, I feel excited before each IFS session instead of dreading what might come up. I know it will provide me with more insight into who I am, helping me cultivate compassion and love for myself, and ultimately become the best and happiest version of myself.
What kind of therapist are you?
This is a difficult question to answer. I might approach it with what kind of a therapist I am not. I am not a therapist who seeks to apply a pathology to my clients. I am not a therapist who seeks to provide psychoeducation to my clients. I am not a therapist who looks to ‘fix’ something ‘broken’ in my clients. That leaves me with being a therapist who seeks to explore and support my clients to make meaning of what is happening in their world. I see myself as someone who has a compassionate curiosity and who offers guided support to my clients as, together, we find a way towards making meaning and achieving a space of balance and harmony within.
I can never know you better than you know yourself, however, my training and my own lived experience enables me to offer you professional and compassionate guided support as you navigate your way through different times in your life.
