My name is Richard Hughes, and I am an Internal Family Systems (IFS) Informed Transformational Coach. 
 
I help people in both their personal and work lives, and also work with people who are thinking of training or have already started to train in IFS.
​
What is Internal Family Systems (IFS)?
​
Do you ever feel that there is part of you which prevents you from realising your full potential? Maybe there is a part getting in the way. Perhaps it is a part that is angry, moody, stubborn, or resentful.   
 
Using Internal Family Systems we welcome all the various parts of you – there are no bad parts. As we work together to identify the various parts, we can find out what they need, and help the parts work together as a whole.    
​
At work and at home I can help you to:
​

• Improve relationships 

• Reduce procrastination

• Reduce stress 

• Make decisions

• Remove creative blocks

• Befriend Inner critics

• Increase self compassion

​​
Where do I work?
​
I work in person at Helix House in Oxford, UK and globally online including the United States, Canada, Europe including UK, and elsewhere.  
​

Should I see an IFS Coach or an IFS Therapist?

As an IFS-informed Transformational Coach I am trained to work with people who are able to function reasonably well in the world.  If that is you, then I am happy to see you. I can help you get from ‘OK’ to ‘Good’, or from ‘Good’ to ‘Flourishing’.  
​
However, if you are currently struggling with your mental health - for example with eating disorders, depression or undue anxiety - you should see a therapist. A therapist will help you get from ‘Struggling’ to ‘OK’.  If this sounds like you, you are welcome to contact me and I will help you find a therapist trained in IFS.  Or if you are not sure whether you need to see me or find a therapist I am happy to have a chat - just fill in the contact form.
