Hear from our community

  • Richard Schwartz, founder of Internal Family Systems (IFS), speaking and endorsing Laura Schmidt

    “It was wonderful to have Laura assist me at the Cape Cod Institute. Her expertise was an important ingredient in the success of the week. In addition to being a very strong IFS therapist, Laura is able to teach and supervise IFS clearly and thoroughly. I highly recommend her.”

    Dr. Richard Schwartz, IFS Founder

  • Robin Barre, PhD, LMHC, seated indoors and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s IFS consultation work

    “Laura has so much Self energy and is a great parts detector! She also does a wonderful job of respectfully and confidently holding the structure and container of the consultation group. I felt safe every step of the way. She is most definitely a skilled IFS therapist and consultant.” 

    Robin Barre, PhD, LMHC | Washington

  • Everett Considine, Level 3 IFS practitioner, standing on a beach and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s consultation group

    “Laura’s consult group has been a wonderful addition to my circle of support. I feel safe with Laura at the helm and I highly recommend her groups to my fellow IFS therapists or practitioners. If you are practicing without peer support you are really missing out. Getting feedback from up to 8 others on challenges you are having is incredibly helpful and heart-opening. I have a part that thinks he doesn’t need support. This group has proven him wrong.”

    Everett Considine, Level 3 IFS Practitioner & Co-author of “Rezoom” from Bright Line Eating

  • Amy Klatzkin, LMFT, smiling and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s IFS consultation group

    “I got so much out of (Laura’s group)—which consolidated what I learned at the Cape Cod Institute and Online Circle—so much so that I passed the OC CE test on the first try, all 250 questions of it, with a score of 95%.”

    Amy Klatzkin, LMFT | San Francisco

  • Stephanie Mitchel, Level 3 IFS therapist, smiling and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s supervision and consultation work

    “As a fairly new IFS therapist I have found Laura provides a very safe space for the deep self-reflection that is so necessary in a supervision space. I feel supported by Laura’s empathic presence, good humour and embodied sense of the IFS model, along with her Self energy and deep knowledge of working with people therapeutically. I would recommend Laura for anyone looking for supervision.”

    Stephanie Mitchel, Level 3 IFS Therapist | Australia

  • Tiffany Forsyth, Level 1 IFS practitioner, standing by the water and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s consultation groups

    “I would like others to know how safe, grounded, enthusiastic, experienced, and helpful Laura is, how rewarding and engaging these group consults are, and what a wonderful resource they are to practice, learn, and gain support.”

    Tiffany Forsyth, L1 Practitioner | Washington

  • Carrisa Aresta, LCSW, smiling indoors and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s IFS consultation groups

    "Laura is particularly talented at creating a safe, warm, intellectually stimulating and welcoming space. Her group is perfectly balanced – there is time for connection and support with other therapists and plenty of space for IFS-focused learning. I walk away from each group with a new nugget of IFS wisdom from Laura and my peers. It is a space that is recharging, energizing, and fun."

    Carrisa Aresta LCSW | Portland, OR

  • Lissa Rankin, author and IFS advocate, smiling outdoors and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s IFS facilitation

    'Laura’s IFS facilitation is a treasure to parts that are just desperate to be loved. She is a hope merchant for hopeless parts indeed."

    Lissa Rankin | NY Times Bestselling Author & IFS Activist

  • Shimila Keenum, LCSW, smiling and sharing a testimonial about Laura Schmidt’s IFS consultation groups

    “Laura so naturally creates this safe, sacred space which invites the group to really drop in deeply and bypass any masky pretenses and connect with real treasure both for our psychotherapy parts but most of all for the nourishment of ourselves as a whole. I walked away with immediate support in using IFS with my clients and also feel rejuvenated, so I’m bringing more Self energy to my clients. I feel honored to sing the praises of Laura and this gorgeous offering.”

    Shimila Keenum, LCSW
