Inivation to Wholeness
Three threads, one weave
Together, they allow you to make deep, behavioral changes.
Parts work
The parts we exile through trauma are our shadows, and learning how to honor their protectors is key to moving past fight, flight, freeze or appease responses. Only then are we ready for building capacity. Our approach is inspired by Internal Family Systems model.
Family Constellations
A profound group process where people stand in for members of your family or inner system. Patterns passed down through generations become visible, and something that has been stuck can begin to move.
Shadow Work
Turning toward the parts of ourselves we reject, hide, or judge in others. What we embrace becomes a source of energy, safety, and resilience we can carry with us everywhere. This is a doorway to a freedom most seekers never touch.
Where are you in your integration?
Our free shadow work self-assessment is a quiet self-portrait of where you’re standing right now: in your body, with your parts, in your relationships, and with the truths that cost something to tell.
It takes about ten minutes and you’ll have a picture of your strengths and areas of growth.
Hi, I’m Karin.
I guide people back into relationship with all of who they are, especially the parts they’ve pushed away. My work weaves Internal Family Systems, Family Constellations, and shadow work into experiences that are felt in the body, not just understood in the mind.
I’ve been an educator for the last 20 years. I hold a Masters of Education from Goddard College. I’ve been a student of Somatics for the last ten years, deepening in my practice through my self study in parts work and Family Constellations. I’ve been facillitating constellations for almost 15 years and continue to explore and experiment with colleagues who are therapists.
I am so incredibly grateful for parts work, as it was the missing key for healing my deep trauma when my somatic skills were not enough.
Shadow work has been the icing on the cake as it took me to a new level of personal sovereignty that is completely alien to me. I only know 3 people personally who are operating at this level.
I’m intensely grateful to those who have paved the way for me.
My teachers:
Dr Richard Schwartz.
What participants say
Karin is in her zone of genius when she facilitates. She has never met a stranger and helps everyone feel immediately welcome. Her guidance and expertise in the realm of the unconscious is beyond my understanding. She’s loved parts of me that I couldn’t look at or hold. She’s taught me how to stay with myself when I want to run. She’s helped me uncover courage I didn’t know I had.
Joey
She knows how to meet people right where they are. Often people feel safe to see where they are stuck. Karin has used every modality she can find to dig to the depths of her shadows and to identify and embrace all parts interfering with her ability to be her complete and whole self.

Just Starting Out?
Shadow play helps us bring our own safety with us everywhere. It builds capacity and resilience for the challenges of life by embracing all the parts of you, especially the ones you reject. Learning the basics of IFS is incredibly supportive in the journey to wholeness, and an essential foundational resouce to help you move out of survival mode into expansive creativity that we cultivate in shadow play!
