Consultants & Consultation Groups I Recommend
Maryann Connolly, IFS Clinical Consultant

Jessica Potter, LMFT | Trauma-Informed Integrative Consultation & Groups
I employ EMDR, IFS, and Structural Dissociation to help you better orient to case conceptualization, understand the spectrum of trauma and dissociation, and when it is indicated to draw upon each of these modalities to best serve your clients.
I am an EMDRIA Approved Consultant, Level 2 trained in Internal Family Systems, and have trained extensively with Colleen West. Also Level 2 trained in Somatic IFS with Susan McConnell.
I look forward to meeting with you in a supportive and collaborative group setting where we will help each other by enriching our work with clients. I believe that as therapists in private practice we can greatly benefit from ongoing group consultation to reduce isolation and burnout and to continue to grow as trauma-informed therapists.

Heather Genschmer LCSW | IFS Informed Trauma Therapy & Consultation
I am a neurodivergent clinician who specializes in using IFS, EMDR, ACT, and psychoeducation to help clinicians create a neurodiversity affirming therapy practice. I have completed Colleen West's Master Class, Special Treatment Challenges Series, two years of group consultation, and specialize in adult autism and other forms of neurodiversity. My passion is utilizing 1:1 consultation to help you use your trauma-informed lens to better understand the intersection of complex trauma and Autism/ADHD. It can be challenging to distinguish trauma from biology and new research is emerging in this field every day. This is an exciting time to recognize our own ableist parts as therapists and I welcome working with those parts of you as well as any other parts that may feel challenged when working with this population.

Ellie Vargas, LCSW | IFS Consultation
I am a Level 3 trained and certified IFS clinician and an IFSI Approved Consultant with a specialization in trauma and its legacy within our systems.
My approach to consultation is collaborative, curious, and non-pathologizing. I am a total psychology geek. I love thinking about our systems, appreciating how we’ve each adapted and evolved to survive our particular upbringings and life circumstances. AND my sweet spot is helping someone unstick from a place they’re feeling stuck - in life or in clinical work. In consultation, you will come away with more insights into your clients, increased confidence in your role, and re-energized about the possibility for healing that IFS offers.
