AMY JOY
Christian IFS Therapy Coach
I am a level two trained IFS therapy practitioner and a faith based person. I reside in the area of DFW Metroplex in Texas with my Husband.
Growing up I was interested in people and relationships. From a young age, I would listen and read what I could to understand from experts about those subjects. I have always believed in the value of the one individual person and how uniquely special it is to hear and reflect life and stories. I discovered the therapy model of IFS (Internal Family Systems) in 2019 and began my own IFS therapy journey in 2020. I believe this is a mode of therapy that is life transforming and I've seen it in work in my own life.
I have been working with clients since 2021 and I believe my purpose in life is to help people find healing and clarity in their lives. I see my work as a supplemental way of supporting others in discovering who they were created to be underneath all the wounding of life experiences.
WHO DO I WORK WITH
1. Anyone who is wanting change in their life and to gain different perspective. Someone who thinks therapy might be a little too much, but would like to have a unbiased person mirror and reflect personal experiences. Someone who is not wanting to be pushed into talking about things they don't want to, I understand and value that resistance and yes I'd want to honor that and allow for hope.
2. Mothers, Fathers, Daughters, Sons, Pastors, Worship Leaders, Ministry staff, etc. I am passionate about supporting the systems of those who support others. I want to provide a space to be seen, heard and validated. To be a resource for you to fill your own cup as you are pouring out to others. I understand how lonely it can be, and the pressure that sneaks into places to feel like you're not able to vulnerable or human. Allowing you to show up in whatever way you need, to find the healing and support in life for yourself.
3. As a Christian. I am an advocate for people who have been hurt by religion, church, or church leaders. I am passionate about working with those who have been broken and manipulated by people who have used religion as leverage for control. I want to provide a safe place for you to have all the emotions that come with that experience. I am so sorry for your hurt and would be honored to be entrusted with your story. I have one too, so I understand.
Please reach out if you have further questions or if you're unsure if you fall in these groups, but still feel like we may be a good fit.
