Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy – Northern Beaches
Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy is a therapeutic approach that supports people to explore the different “parts” of themselves that influence thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. These parts may carry feelings, memories, or beliefs shaped by past experiences, and can sometimes feel in conflict with one another.By developing awareness and a compassionate relationship with these inner parts, clients can begin to reduce internal conflict and create a greater sense of calm, clarity, and inner harmony. IFS Therapy can be particularly helpful for trauma, anxiety, depression, and long-standing emotional difficulties. Lara Petrulis integrates IFS Therapy with Gestalt Therapy, Schema Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), supporting both present-day concerns and the deeper patterns that shape emotional experience. Sessions are available in person in Brookvale or online via Zoom for adults seeking support.
