Lissa Rankin, MD
Green Mountain Retreat, 19480 Bear Creek Rd, Los Gatos, CA
Get support in setting, negotiating, and respecting boundaries using Internal Family Systems informed parts work, so you can protect yourself and others in order to enjoy deeper, safer intimacy as well as trust, empathy & respect in all of your relationships.Therapists, self-help books, and recovery programs hammer into us the importance of healthy boundaries, and rightfully so.
Without boundaries to protect us from mistreatment and boundaries to contain us from mistreating others, relationships are often unsafe and can be retraumatizing. Lack of boundaries erodes trust, and the intimacy we all crave and need for our emotional, physical, and spiritual health can feel hard to find and/or sustain.
Without healthy, safe, emotionally intimate relationships, our health can suffer, and our recovery can be impaired if we do wind up sick. But once we learn to put healthy boundaries in place, we’re free to let our hearts blossom, like putting a greenhouse around an orchid bulb and getting clear about who we will and won’t let into our greenhouse.
Anyone with an interest in IFS and relationships is welcome. If you’re new to IFS, Lissa can provide you- at no additional cost - with an IFS Basics online program recording required to finish before attending, so you’re up to speed.
