Question 1 of 4
What does IFS actually do?
“It treats the inner critic as a part trying to protect you, not a flaw to fight. Once we listen to what it is protecting, it tends to soften.”

Counselling Psychologist (IFS)
M.A. Clinical PsychologyIFS Level 1MumbaiEnglish, Hindi
Tanya works with the parts of you that have been doing too much for too long — the inner critic, the perfectionist, the protector. Her practice is grounded in Internal Family Systems and is especially useful for clients tired of "thinking their way out" of their patterns.

Approaches I use
Evidence-based methods, blended for fit
A good therapist doesn’t pick one school and force everyone into it. Here are the approaches I draw from.
IFS
Internal Family Systems — works with the protective parts of you that learned to function around older experience.
ACT
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy — builds the skill of acting toward what matters even when discomfort is present.
CBT
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy — works on the thought–feeling–behaviour loops behind anxiety, depression, and many specific concerns.
