Your Host...
From a year I didn’t plan for came this: a quieter lane for IFS-trained therapists who want steady support, clear maps, and room to grow into their own way of working.
The photo you see here is not a headshot.
No makeup, no styled outfit, no curated background.
It’s me in Mississippi, in the middle of a year I didn’t plan for—caring for my mom after her strokes; well, two strokes to be exact... supporting my dad, parenting my 19-year-old from a distance, my 19 yo being hit by a truck while on her bicycle, and trusting my 16-year-old poodle was orienting to trusting someone else while I was away. In the midst of all of that, I was still honoring my PA commitments, still working with clients, and still leaning on my lifelines—friends and family I could ask for help.
Somewhere in that season, around April, the idea for Where’s My PA? really came into focus. I kept seeing the same pattern: practice debriefs and Q&As would end, people would return to full lives, and there was never quite enough room to keep tending to the “I almost had it” moments. The excitement I felt talking about the model—and about the moments that move or stall the work for both client and therapist—had nowhere steady to land.
This new container is my answer to that gap.
Hi. I'm Andrieah.
I've coined myself as an IFS Skills Coach, psychotherapist, and creator of Haus of Parts and Where’s My PA? podcast. For nearly a decade, I’ve supported the IFS community as a Program Assistant, helping therapists and coaches translate what they learn in training into what actually happens in the room. I’ve seen the model from many angles: learning it, assisting it, teaching pieces of it, and holding space around it. I know how much courage it takes to make it your own.
My work now centers on bridging theory and practice for IFS-trained and IFS-informed therapists who are ready to deepen their skill and confidence—especially in that post-training season where you’re back in the room, trying to understand why a session went the way it did. I care about you knowing where you are in the model and why you moved the way you did, not just whether you “did it right.”
I’m not here to be an unreachable expert. I’m here as a companion in the conversation. This podcast lives in its own lane on purpose: we come back to the basics and the foundation, so that over time you move from mimicking scripts and agenda’ing sessions to seeing more of you in the room.
Before this chapter, I served in the Army as a Sergeant and worked as a civilian Air Traffic Controller. Both roles sharpened my respect for precision, grounded communication, and calm under pressure—qualities I carry into how I teach, coach, and support others now in the mental health space. I move at a pace that respects your bandwidth and the realities of your life. I care about clarity more than performance.
In this season of my life, this podcast and this space let me keep doing the work I love in sustainable ways—being mindful of the care of my eyesight, building a relationship with my voice in this kind of container, and reclaiming my time.
Through Where’s My PA? and Haus of Parts, I’m continuing the work that started in the training room: helping you integrate IFS from the inside out, with ease via audio support.
