Dorit Tomandl, LMFT

I am a psychotherapist, a Healer of the Soul (and a Licensend Marriage and Family Therapist) and I am here to help you heal your wounds and trauma.

My approach to therapy is rooted in the Internal Family Systems Model (IFS), and I also incorporate teachings from indigenous and eastern traditions into the traditional western psychotherapy. Treating the whole person is very important to me, my area of expertise is to help you reconnect with the wisdom of your body through bodywork and somatic experiencing so that you can be in tune with your sensations and emotions.

When you come into my office, I am not going to label you with a diagnosis or disorder. Instead, I am going to ask curious questions – such as: What emotion are you not feeling when you get high? How does watching porn/buying shoes help you to get on with life? What are you escaping from when you binge eat or drink?

IFS is an evidence-based, cutting-edge model of therapy that will help you to:

Get to know your various parts (subpersonalities),
Target the specific psychological issues you want resolved
Know your inner Wisdom/Self as the agent of transformation
Access your wounded parts (trauma) for deep emotional healing
Transform stuck parts of yourself into inner resources of strength, love, and freedom
You will be able to understand your unwanted behaviors and thoughts better and develop more self compassion. This new perspective and improved relationship with yourself will make long lasting change possible.
