Aida Retta
Registered Psychotherapist
You’ve always been the one others count on—the thoughtful one, the steady one. But under the surface, you might feel anxious, resentful, or quietly overwhelmed. You say yes when you want to say no. You shrink your needs to keep the peace. You care deeply, but sometimes feel like you’re disappearing in the process. These patterns often begin in relationships where love felt conditional, conflict w…

Sandra Daoust
Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) and Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling (MPCC-P)
You're not broken, and you don’t need fixing. At your core, you're whole. But life, trauma, loss, stress, and relationships can make you feel fragmented/out of alignment. My work is about helping you remember who you are beneath the layers: sovereign and capable of living an authentic life. My approach is collaborative to your unique lived experience. Healing is not linear, but it is possible.

Abby Tait
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
You might come to therapy feeling stuck in familiar patterns - ways of coping, thinking, or relating that once made sense but now feel hard to shift. You may be thoughtful and self-aware, yet find yourself overthinking, avoiding certain emotions, or feeling disconnected from who you are or where you’re headed. Questions about identity, values, and purpose often sit quietly underneath these experi…

Frequently Asked Questions About Internal Family Systems (IFS)
What is Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy?
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a model of psychotherapy developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz that views the mind as made up of multiple "parts" — sub-personalities or inner voices that each carry their own feelings, beliefs, and motivations. IFS also posits the existence of a core "Self" — a calm, compassionate, and curious centre that can lead the inner system toward healing. Therapy involves building a relationship between the Self and various parts, including protective parts and wounded "exile" parts, to create greater inner harmony.
What conditions does IFS therapy help with?
IFS is used for trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addiction, relationship difficulties, chronic pain, and general personal growth. It is particularly valued for complex or developmental trauma, where multiple protective patterns and deeply buried wounds need to be addressed with care. IFS has a growing evidence base and is recognized as an empirically supported treatment for PTSD.
What does an IFS therapy session look like?
IFS sessions typically involve the therapist guiding you into a focused inner state where you can turn attention inward and notice different parts — often felt as emotions, thoughts, physical sensations, or inner voices. You might be invited to "get curious" about a part, ask it questions, and understand its role and fears. The tone is gentle and exploratory rather than confrontational. Many people find IFS deeply validating because it treats all parts of the self as having good intentions, even when their behaviour is problematic.
Is IFS therapy evidence-based?
IFS has a growing body of research and has been recognized as an evidence-based practice by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) in the United States. Studies show effectiveness for PTSD, depression, rheumatoid arthritis symptom management, and personal resilience. IFS is widely practised and taught across Canada, and many therapists incorporate it alongside other evidence-based approaches.
How long does IFS therapy typically take?
IFS therapy is often a longer-term process, particularly when addressing complex trauma or deeply entrenched protective patterns. Many people work with an IFS therapist for six months to several years, though some use IFS-informed approaches as part of shorter-term therapy for specific concerns. The depth of the work tends to make IFS particularly meaningful for people who want not just symptom relief but genuine inner transformation.
