I’m Nick Churchill, a Level 3 Registered Practitioner of IFS and IFIO (IFS couples therapy), offering online therapy sessions to individuals and couples in the UK and abroad.
Before I came to IFS, I taught and practised homeopathy and other CAM (complementary and alternative medicine) therapies. Ever since I was in my first Gestalt group as a student, I have had a lifelong interest in psychotherapy. Like many others, when I discovered the work of Dick Schwartz, it made so much sense to me. The IFS model of the human psyche is so beautifully simple and compelling that I felt I had always known it at some level.
I really love IFS and now devote myself to it. While it is also a fundamentally holistic modality, I know that it can go further and help more deeply on the mental and emotional level than any other therapy I am aware of. In my work, I apply the principles of IFS to work with individuals and couples in quite a pure way, ie not mixed with other therapeutic approaches.
Many IFS therapists find a particular niche in which they work. True to my holistic roots, I have found that it feels natural for me not to do this, but rather to work with a broad range of clients. To me it makes sense that all human beings are fundamentally the same, no matter what parts they have and how they express, at which stage of life they are and from where they have come. To specialise would for me be to limit myself and to slowly lose sight of the fundamentals on which IFS is based.
I really trust that every client will find the right therapist to help them move forward, if they and each therapist can stay open to this idea and find out what feels right to them.
