Personal Growth & Healing uses Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Inner Growth and Somatic Therapy techniques to delve into your inner landscapes, helping you navigate self-discovery, personal growth, and emotional healing. By addressing limiting beliefs, clarifying values, and setting empowering goals, you are empowered to cultivate self-compassion, resilience, and a greater sense of purpose, leading to enhanced well-being and more fulfilling relationships with yourself and others.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a therapeutic approach developed by Richard Schwartz in the 1980s. It is based on the idea that the mind comprises various sub-personalities or "parts," each with its own perspectives, emotions, and roles. These parts often interact with each other in complex ways, resembling a family system. IFS aims to help individuals understand and harmonise these internal parts, facilitating a more cohesive sense of self.
These sessions can benefit a wide range of individuals, including those who:
-
Struggle with Anxiety and Depression: By exploring and understanding their internal parts, individuals can address the root causes of their emotional distress.
-
Experience Trauma: Helping individuals process their feelings and integrate different parts of their identity.
-
Seek Personal Growth: Individuals aiming for self-discovery and personal development can uncover and work through internal conflicts.
-
Have Relationship Issues: Understanding internal dynamics can enhance interpersonal relationships by fostering better communication and empathy.
-
Live with Chronic Conditions: Those managing chronic illnesses may be helped in coping with the emotional and psychological aspects of their conditions.

Couples Growth & Healing utilises both Relational Life Therapy (RLT) concepts and Internal Family Systems (IFS) principles to provide a path for strengthening your relationship by exploring the dynamics and interactions that shape your connections with each other. Rooted in the understanding that our relationship plays a fundamental role in our well-being, we focus on removing triggering patterns, enhancing communication, building trust, and fostering intimacy to create a healthier and more fulfilling bond.
Through open dialogue, exploration of attachment patterns, and guidance on effective conflict resolution, RLT provides a framework for you to address underlying issues, break dysfunctional patterns, and cultivate greater understanding and connection. RLT empowers participants to navigate challenges, deepen emotional intimacy, and nurture enduring connections by promoting empathy, vulnerability, and authenticity within relationships.

Sandtray therapy offers a unique, non-verbal approach to healing. It provides a contained and safe space where you can use symbols and objects to create scenes in a tray of sand, externalising your inner world. This process can help you access and explore emotions, memories, and conflicts that are often difficult to express with words alone. By giving a tangible form to your internal landscape, sandtray empowers you to gain deeper self-understanding and find creative pathways to resolve past and present challenges.
"I walked away inspired and motivated to make some changes in myself that helped me to step onto the path I want to be on." ~ Pam
"This opened my eyes in unexpected ways. I got insight into some hidden and unhealed pain from the past and discovered paths that I hadn’t seen before." ~Natalia
This powerful technique can be beautifully integrated with Internal Family Systems (IFS), providing a visual stage for your inner world. In this combined approach, you can select figures to represent different "parts" of yourself—like a protector, a wounded exile, or a playful part—and place them in the sand. This allows you to literally see the dynamics within your internal family. It allows for you to engage with these parts in a compassionate and curious way, a process that can lead to healing and integration.

What Others Say
A trusted friend recommended Anneriek when I spoke with them about the stress and anxiety I had been feeling for the past few years. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I knew I needed help. From the very first time we met, Anneriek made me feel at ease and has really helped me better understand why I think the way I do and how I can change that. I would highly recommend her services, it has really helped me.

The skills that we learned will assist us in breaking generational cycles that we would have otherwise likely passed down to our children. We feel so grateful to Anneriek for this wonderful journey she has guided us through, and we are excited to continue to implement the tools shown to us.
