IFS therapist, online worldwide
Part of you wants to change; part of you slams the brakes. That's not weakness, that's an inner system, and it makes sense. I'm Shagoon Maurya, a registered counsellor and psychotherapist (ACA Level 2, PACFA) trained in Internal Family Systems, and I offer IFS therapy online.
Internal Family Systems starts from an observation most of us recognise instantly: we contain multitudes. The inner critic. The people-pleaser. The part that numbs out at night. IFS treats these not as flaws but as parts, protective strategies that once kept you safe and are still running old software.
Beneath the parts, IFS holds, is a calm, compassionate core Self that was never damaged. Therapy is the process of unblending from the noisy protectors, earning their trust, and letting Self lead, so the exiled pain they guard can finally be healed rather than managed.
What IFS with me looks like
Meet your parts
Get to know the critic, the pleaser, the perfectionist, and what each is protecting you from.
Unblend and lead
Learn to speak for your parts instead of from them, with curiosity replacing inner war.
Heal the exiles
Gently reach the young, hurt parts carrying old shame and fear, at a pace your system agrees to.
Inner peace, outer change
As the inner conflict settles, decisions, relationships and self-worth change on their own.
Who IFS helps
People exhausted by self-criticism and inner conflict, those who intellectually understand their patterns but can't shift them, trauma survivors who need a gentle, non-confrontational path, and anyone who's ever said 'a part of me wants this, but another part...'. It pairs beautifully with my trauma work.
In IFS there are no bad parts. Only parts stuck in old jobs, waiting for someone safe enough to let them rest.
IFS sits inside my integrative practice alongside CBT, DBT skills and EFT, we use what your system needs. Begin with a free 15-minute consultation.
