Healing, Growth, and Transformation Through IFS
Whether you’re healing deep wounds or reaching for your next level of growth, I offer a space for you to reconnect with your inner wisdom and live a more liberated, expansive, and creative Self-led life.
Meet Sundaura
Welcome! I’m Sundaura —a therapist, educator, empath, and guide committed to supporting people in healing, growth, and transformation. My work is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and a desire to further our collective liberation from the inside out. Over the last 8 years, I have become intimately familiar with the inner world - working with complex trauma, healing attachment wounds, issues related to relationships, gender, sexuality, neurodiversity, spirituality, as well as chronic pain and illness.
I have found this model to be a transformative and affirming new paradigm, not only for the way it holistically supports us to foster healing and honor the innate goodness within each part of ourselves, but also for the way it supports us in uncovering our innate gifts and accessing the qualities of Self-leadership, creativity, and compassion within.
It also offers a way to unburden, unlearn, and release intergenerational traumas and internalized oppression, both from those who have been harmed and those who have perpetuated harm. It blends evidenced-based therapy, neuroscience, and ancient wisdom to address psychological, spiritual, energetic, and even physical healing.
By helping you attune to parts of yourself that emerge, and by checking for consent as we deepen through each layer, we co-create a foundation of safety for healing, transformation, and moving through even the deepest of traumas and grief; therefore creating space to reclaim the innate gifts that you were born into the world with. As your foundation of safety and trust expands, you will begin to feel more ease in connecting with your inner world, and more capacity for feeling joy, belonging, discernment, and trust in yourself and others.
As a level 3 trained Internal Family Systems therapist, empath, and a gender expansive trans woman, I am intimately familiar with the inner world and committed to furthering collective healing and liberation by helping individuals start connecting within. Understanding the multiplicity of the mind creates a transformative paradigm that is not pathologizing, and that is centered in respect and appreciation for all parts of the psyche. The mind and body are intricately connected in the IFS process. The transition from external to internal work can involve connecting to emotions, imagery, physical sensations, memories, inner dialogue, and other channels of experience. For some clients, spiritual guides or helpers may even emerge in sessions.

Welcome! I’m Sundaura —a therapist, educator, empath, and guide committed to supporting people in healing, growth, and transformation. My work is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and a desire to further our collective liberation from the inside out. I value IFS, not only for the way it holistically fosters healing and honors every person’s humanity, but also for the way it supports individuals in uncovering their innate gifts and accessing the qualities of Self-leadership, creativity, and compassion within. It also offers a way to unburden, unlearn, and release intergenerational traumas and internalized oppression, both from those who have been harmed and those who have perpetuated harm.

I have completed Level 3 training with the IFS Institute and bring years of experience not only as a practitioner but also as a teacher and mentor in the IFS community. I’ve served as a Program Assistant for a Level 1 training and as a Teaching Assistant for multiple cohorts of a queer, trans, and BIPOC-specific IFS Intro course, helping to expand access to this model for therapists and communities who are often underrepresented.
I’m also the co-founder of Radiance Integrative Health and Wellness, a nonprofit clinic dedicated to accessible, integrative care. Much of my career has focused on equity and providing high-quality care to people on Medicaid and to those facing multiple layers of marginalization. I continue to carry that commitment into all of my work.
In my private practice, I work online with clients across the United States and internationally, offering therapy, consultation, and coaching. I specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, people navigating trauma, chronic pain, and identity exploration, and professionals seeking deeper personal and professional growth. Beyond one-on-one sessions, I lead groups, workshops, and trainings that help extend healing and resilience outward into communities.
Outside of my practice, I’m grateful to spend time with my partner and young daughter, being nourished by nature, traveling, dancing, and exploring creative outlets.
