IFS
Mary Gale Gurnsey
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I became passionate about this work because I've witnessed how deeply relationship trauma affects people's ability to trust themselves and others. Many of my clients come in feeling lost, unsure of what healthy actually looks like, and carrying the weight of past relationships where they lost their sense of self.
What I love most is helping people recognize that they're not broken — they're responding logically to what they've experienced. By understanding your attachment patterns and past dynamics, we can build a different future. My goal is to help you feel secure in yourself while building relationships where you're truly valued as an equal partner.
I believe therapy should be collaborative, non-judgmental, and respectful of your pace.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I've spent over thirty years helping people make sense of complexity.
Today I work as an Integrative Arts Psychotherapist and Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner, helping people make the invisible visible. Whether someone comes because they're anxious, overwhelmed, caught in painful relationship patterns or simply feels stuck, I'm interested in helping them understand themselves more clearly by noticing the patterns they couldn't previously see.
Before retraining as a psychotherapist, I spent many years in design and technology. That background continues to shape how I work. I'm naturally curious about patterns, systems and the relationships between different parts of a person's life. Sometimes we simply talk. Sometimes images, objects or simple creative materials help make sense of experiences that words alone can't fully describe. There is never any expectation to be artistic.
I work in an active, collaborative way. I won't rush you towards solutions, but neither will I sit back and simply listen. Together we'll become curious about what's happening beneath the surface so that, once those patterns become visible, different choices become possible.

Fufan Chiang
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
To the rest of the world, you look like you have it all together—but deep down, you know you are struggling. You carry an exhausting weight of never feeling good enough, constantly pleasing others, and taking responsibility for everyone's feelings at the expense of your own boundaries. Even though you are trying your absolute best, your relationships feel strained, leaving you disconnected from your partner and completely disconnected from yourself. You can see the patterns, you understand the "why," but you just haven't been able to change it on your own. It doesn't mean there is no hope; it just means it is time for a different approach. If you are a driven professional ready to step past perfectionism, heal your nervous system, and finally feel comfortable in your own skin, relief is possible. Email me directly to schedule a session; initial consultations are not offered.
