What IFS therapists are saying



“ As a certified IFS therapist and Program Assistant for IFS trainings, I hear repeatedly from clients and students that they need more support in how to connect to Self energy and how to guide clients in this regard. Presence Psychotherapy provides the missing link that both clients and IFS students repeatedly ask for as it provides a guide to experiencing Self energy, and establishes a visceral, felt sense of Self energy in the body that clients and students can inhabit.”

Hayley Newell, Certified IFS therapist PA for IFS levels 1 and 2..”

“Presence Psychotherapy has helped support my clients to be in the moment notice their parts and be the observer while having a deeper connection with their own Self Energy. It is an amazing modeality that is an integration of spiritual practice and somatic psychotherapy techniques. It helps them regulate and stay in the window of tolerance. This is where much of the healing can happen..Michelle is an excellent clinician who is able to teach with so much authenticity and thoroughness. I can’t wait for the book!!!

-Melani Levine, IFS Approved Consultant and certified therapist PA many times (level s1&2)l.”

“I am a Certified Level 3 IFS therapist who has been practicing IFS for 9 years. Prior to Presense Psychotherapy, some clients might struggle to unblend, or feel any Self energy. Now, many times when we are working with a part and I suggest that the client can invite the part to turn towards the Presence that was integrated in awareness in the beginning of session, the part will have an aha moment! The part says, Oh right, there is all this spaciousness here, or oh yes that love is here... Presence Psychotherapy has also helped me be more thorough in eliciting all the various and subtle experiences of a part. In this way, the part’s layered experience is honored and met with Self energy.

Joanne Cohen-Katz. Level 3 trained IFS therapist
