Amorette Getty, PhD

An avid inner explorer, Amorette has accumulated hundreds of hours of imaginal journeying and parts work. Each transformation within her own system has deepened her commitment to assisting others who are pursuing in their own journeys within. The Internal Family Systems methodology has proven to be a perfect complement to Amorette's prior personal work, and provides the template for most coaching sessions. She is a Level 1 Trained IFS Practitioner with a diverse and delightful inner family.

Amorette has spent 24 years studying both martial and sexual arts as paths to personal strength, intimacy, self-awareness, and mind-body-spirit connection. Her coaching practice prides itself on being queer, kink, poly, parenting, and neurodiverse-friendly. All parts and all bodies are welome. Her favorite martial forms are renaissance rapier and taijiquan. To honor the embodied side of this work Amorette is now adding Massage Therapy and Neuroaffective Touch to her modalities, though she's still just in training for both!

Amorette's early career background addressed the systems of the outside world through physics, engineering, and sustainability, netting 2 decades of academic experience and a PhD in these fields. Over time, Amorette realized that the biggest hurdles to improving human-affected systems lay inside people themselves, which led her to a vocational transition supporting inner work. Personal transformation supports social and global transformation.

Core Principles

When entering into a coaching relationship, my priority is to assist you in exploring aspects of yourself that you are interested in evolving, healing, or understanding better. Inner work is intimate and personal, so confidentiality and respect are intrinsic to our relationship. I'll also offer honesty if I have a concern or a limit of my own.

In IFS, practitioners facilitate the relationship between the client's own inner Self and their parts, and healing can only be accomplished by the individual themselves, not by any external force or party, including me. As a coach, my job is to create a focused, safe-enough container for you to explore within, and to help you recognize when new parts have shown up as we do our work, so you can get to know them too.

Consent is crucial to all of my dealings, professional and personal. I will seek verbal consent, and ask you to check with your parts for consent, many times over the course of each session. Ex consensu, possibilitates infinitae. Out of consent, infinite possibilities.

As a trauma-informed coach, if we encounter something that calls for additional resources or tools, or a change in approach, I will always do my best to be responsive to those needs, and provide references to other resources or practitioners if parts of your path are beyond the scope of my expertise.
