    Internal Family Systems Therapy for Highly Sensitive Persons

    I have found Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) to be especially helpful for Highly Sensitive persons (HSPs). It offers a way to repair injuries of disconnection and access inner clarity. I help HSPs appreciate their strengths and learn coping strategies for living in a world where most people are not highly sensitive.

About Elizabeth Venart, M.Ed., LPC

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work with individuals and couples to guide them in developing greater compassion for themselves and in healing the trauma at the root of where they feel stuck. What results is an experience of greater resiliency, freedom, and joy.

As an LPC Supervisor in Pennsylvania and an EMDR Consultant, I offer supervision and training for therapists seeking to advance their skills and deepen their understanding of trauma and resiliency. I specialize in helping Highly Sensitive persons (HSPs) heal emotional wounds and move towards greater self-understanding and acceptance.

In 2008, I founded The Resiliency Center of Greater Philadelphia. Bringing together a community of independent, integrative healing professionals under one roof, we partner with people to help them tap into their innate resiliency, release and transform painful life experiences, and move towards more fully experiencing joy.

I believe in building resiliency, facilitating healing, and partnering with people to create more joy in their lives.
