IFS with Vera
You may be struggling with feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, or depression, or feeling stuck in self-defeating patterns and behaviours. Perhaps you’re navigating difficult relationships or finding it hard to set healthy boundaries.
I offer a supportive space and confident guidance to help you explore and begin shifting what feels stuck. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) — a powerful therapeutic model that, in a gentle way, can lead to deep and lasting healing.
Welcome!
I'm so glad you are here and considering taking this step with me.
I’m Vera and I'm a holistic coach and a counsellor and psychotherapist in training, offering IFS-informed online therapy for adults and young adults. I work in English and Croatian. My work is relational, trauma-informed, and guided by deep respect for each person’s own pace and inner wisdom.
​
My approach​​​​
My passion for therapeutic approaches that foster deep, lasting change led me to Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS). Its compassionate, non-pathologizing approach aligns deeply with how I understand growth and healing. By cultivating self-compassion through powerful internal process, IFS will help you shift patterns that, despite being driven by protective intentions, keep you stuck in challenging situations, behaviors, and emotions. I pursued comprehensive training in IFS and I have been regularly supporting others in learning the model as a support staff on the renowned IFSCA training course.
​
In my work I also draw on my training in some of the prominent therapeutic approaches, including Person-Centred Therapy (PCT), Pluralistic Psychotherapy and Counselling, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).
