Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Dr. Kelsi Clayson

Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in genuine connection—with a touch of humor along the way. I support clients through life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, relational struggles, and major transitions. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that support your well-being and those that may be holding you back, always with a focus on your unique values, needs, and goals. Drawing from evidence-based therapies, I tailor our work to help you feel empowered, deepen self-understanding, and move toward meaningful change. Taking this step toward healing is courageous, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you create the life you want.

Many things in life push us to seek help when old ways of coping no longer work. I help clients reorganize their patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting to fit their present reality and release what no longer serves. Together, we access your natural ability to adapt and change.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Cindy Yu

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Cindy Yu is a bilingual (English and Mandarin Chinese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of both Florida and Alabama. She is well-trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Bowen’s theory, Gottman Method, CBT, and more. Cindy believes that each client is comprised of unique yet charismatic components such as personal upbringings, religious beliefs, and cultural backgrounds, that all contribute to narrate a cohesive personal story. This fundamental ideology has cultivated her into offering her clients unconditional positive regard and respect, while tailoring her treatment orientations to better serve each client’s individuality. Her passion is to help individuals, couples, and families to understand the misunderstood, to discover hope from the hopelessness, to speak the unspoken, and to seek possibilities through the impossible. Cindy also has a background in the medical field where she has obtained a strong foundational knowledge for medical diagnosis and medications. She understands the intricacy between medical burden and mental health.

Amarillo, Texas therapist: Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD., psychologist
Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.

Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Despite being a good listener, I don't see myself as a "talk" therapist. I am interested in how you, your nervous system, and the environment are getting along with each other. We will DO things in our work just as much as talk and reflect. I provide ways to reduce overwhelming emotions that impact effectiveness, break unhelpful reactions/patterns, and enhance internal resources for navigating the world as it is. My personal style is a combination of a little irreverent spice and humor while deeply honoring your concerns and goals.

Albany, New York therapist: Lauren Palumbo, licensed mental health counselor
Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Lauren Palumbo

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Do anxiety, irritability, negative feelings, or self-doubt weigh you down? Maybe you've been to therapy before and even understand why you feel the way you do, but insight alone hasn't been enough to shift your situation. Transformation comes from experience, not just knowing, and it should be something you can feel. My work is experiential and collaborative, helping you explore what's below the surface and access your inner strength and resilience. If you’re tired of chasing a sense of peace that always feels just out of reach, I’d love to help you find something real and lasting.
