IFS Coaching FAQ

I want to offer services as an IFS life coach. Do I need to be a credentialed therapist as well?

No! There are plenty of IFS coaches out in the world who are not licensed therapists. I help coaches get clarity about the difference by doing IFS work with the parts of themselves that have concerns about this. This page has more information about the inner work I offer around these issues.

I’m a credentialed therapist. How do I legally offer services as a coach?

I don’t know! I’m not a credentialed therapist. I’m a certified IFS practitioner who has been offering IFS life coaching since around 2008, so I understand the field from the perspective of a coach, not a licensed therapist.

What’s the difference between IFS coaching and IFS therapy?
