IFS Therapy in Menlo Park

For professionals who have it together on the outside and are exhausted on the inside

You Have It Together. You Just Don't Feel Like It.

Something isn't working, and you've known it for a while. On the outside, the life looks right. But there's a weight underneath it that doesn't shift, a pattern that keeps repeating no matter how much you understand it, a loss you haven't been able to set down. You've tried to think your way through it. It hasn't been enough.

I'm Ryan Thurwachter, LCSW, an IFS therapist in Menlo Park, California. I work with professionals who look like they have it together and feel like they're barely holding on underneath. I use Internal Family Systems therapy because it gets at what's underneath the anxiety, the trauma, and the grief, rather than just managing the symptoms.
