Kaleigh McAfee, AMFT
Therapist Details
If you’re ready for change, I’m ready to be with you through it. I may be the right fit if you believe your coping skills are only getting you so far, find that therapy didn’t “hit the spot" in the past, or you’ve previously had success with traditional talk therapy but would like to dive deeper into your inner world. My energy is best-suited for folks who are interested in, open to, or curious about longer-term (6 mo +) work and are really ready for life to look, feel, and be different.
I'm an Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist and use IFS as my primary treatment modality; however, I encourage your parts to express themselves in ways that feel most authentic, and I love to therapeutically incorporate the things that make you you - music, art, reading and writing, a relationship with nature, spiritual practices, etc. I am also a registered yoga teacher and Reiki practitioner, as well as an iRest yoga nidra meditation teacher; I can use these tools collaboratively for self-exploration and/or regulation during and between sessions. This healing work is yours, and we'll collaborate to ensure the journey feels authentic.
You can expect sessions with me to be deeply connected, intuitive, and insightful - the relationships I build with my clients have the essence of anam cara, the Celtic concept of "soul friend." At the same time, sessions with me are full of laughter, fervor, and encouragement (let me be clear - I LOVE to laugh). I have a non-directive approach to therapy, meaning I'll keep us moving (safely) down the river towards your goals without exerting influence over the river's natural flow. To keep that river flowing, I do often create exploratory “homework assignments” custom to you to encourage self-reflection and integration between sessions, as most of the “work” happens beyond the hour we spend together.
