I’m Nick Churchill, a Level 3 qualified and registered practitioner of IFS and IFIO (IFS couples therapy), offering online therapy sessions to individuals and couples in the UK and elsewhere.
With an extensive background in CAM therapies, and as someone who has engaged in different kinds of psychotherapy throughout my adult life, I came to IFS four years ago. I immediately recognised the simple yet profound truths of this holistic model of the human psyche; it seemed to me that I already understood the principles of parts-work, even before I actually knew them. To me, IFS offered everything I had been looking for in one package, and I quickly started to take its wonderful experiential trainings and then I started in practice.
IFS has changed my life both personally and as a practitioner; it has put me in touch with what we call Self-energy – the deep source of life, leadership and secure attachment present in all of us, once our various parts can come to trust its power to heal and guide. I bring my Self to my IFS work and here I help my clients to find this resource in themselves. I have found that good things happen in our lives when Self-energy becomes available to our well-intentioned but struggling young parts and they can start to ease back. IFIO couples therapy helps us to relate with our loved ones on a deeper level of communication and intimacy.
