kristine anthis, PhD, LPCA

Hello. I delight in helping adults who are struggling with dating, couples who are disconnected, and adults who are ready to heal their trauma. After working with me, you will be better able to notice and 'be with' your parts (such noticing and dialoging inside to help a tense and anxious part of yourself), rather than 'being' your parts (such as remaining or becoming even more tense and anxious). My IFS Dating Lab© Coaching, IFIO Couples Therapy, and IFS Individual Therapy are available in person and online. I also offer Concierge Services for same or next day appointments, which can include after hours therapy and weekend therapy depending on my availability. I am IFS Institute trained in Level 1, Level 2, & Level 3, as well as IFIO (the intimate partners/couples version of IFS), Nonviolent Communication, I have completed postdoctoral coursework at the C. G. Jung Institute in NYC, and I have served as an IFS Level 1 Program Assistant to help other therapists learn IFS. I'm an able-bodied cisgender white person, I am working to be more conscious of my privilege, and to use it to help make the world better for everyone. My ancestors came to the United States from Europe and the Middle East. I identify as a woman, a feminist, a lesbian, and a queer person, someone who is now situated in the middle class, and who became a parent in midlife. I live on the sacred, yet unceded, land of the Quinnipiac people in New Haven, CT, US. I am working to better understand the marginalizations of others, and I hope to be considered an ally. In addition to work, I'm fond of being with family and friends, foraging for black licorice, and devouring detective novels. In our initial session, I will be determining your needs to see if and how I can help. If we aren't able to work together, a directory of other IFS practitioners is available at: https://ifs-institute.com/practitioners
