About Aion

Aion Farvahar - Certified IFS Practitioner

I am a Level 3 Certified IFS Practitioner and the author of Internal Family Systems (IFS) Tips and Practice Skills, a book dedicated to my peer IFS Therapists and Practitioners to help them become more effective in IFS practice. I am also a Psychoshamanic Practitioner and a contributing member of the Crows Nest Center for Shamanic Studies in Southwest Michigan. 

My approach to IFS is non-clinical with strong emphasis on therapeutic relationship, parts’ inner psychology, and Self as the harmonizing center of the psyche. My areas of focus are Advanced IFS Parts Work, IFS Mentoring and Consultation, Legacy and Unattached Burdens (UBs), Spiritual Emergency and Integration, Centering Skills, Holistic Inner Work, and Life and Spirituality Mentoring.

I became a relentless advocate for IFS when I realized its effectiveness in healing personal, legacy, and archetypal unattached burdens. As complements to core IFS, and when needed, I use psychoanalytical, shamanic, and contemplative imagination techniques to help my clients notice, befriend, and heal their most challenging parts. I have a holistic approach to inner work and view psychological healing and self-awareness not as the ultimate goal but the foundation of much deeper levels of self-awareness, namely, spiritual self-awareness, and the awareness of higher purpose of life and human experience.

Clients' Testimonials

I had the great fortune to do several sessions with Aion. I worked with an IFS therapist previously for two years, and it was beneficial. My brief work with Aion was immensely more powerful & healing. I gained new admiration and trust for my incredible parts, whom I now see as the unsung heroes of my internal system. And, now they have me: the real me. What I now have is access to my center: a source of power and connection with my ancestors, legacy, and innate gifts.It is the greatest gift of my life to date. I am so grateful to have found such a gifted, trustworthy, and gentle guide in this.
Kate from CT
Working with Aion has been a fascinating process. He helped me make contact with some very deep wounded parts of myself in a way that was especially precise and efficient. Surgical like. He also brought me a lot of clarity by helping me figure out which inner-parts to prioritize working with and bringing a bunch of them to consciousness. The whole process allowed me to make significant progress on areas where I had been stuck before. This was especially valuable for my general well being. I would definitely recommend him to people wanting to work on a very specific issue, but also those looking for more general guidance in their inner journey, whether they are experienced travelers or beginners on this path
Ella from France
As someone who has experienced a high level of wounding and trauma, both somatically and psychically, Aion, in his total loving presence, has supported me in accomplishing profound and sustained healing by providing the safe and deeply nurturing container I needed in order to venture into complex, hidden inner landscapes and subtle layers of my psyche, which I had previously found near impossible to access or even conceptualise, establishing framework and form within the unseen dimensions of my internal cosmology and sensory perceptions, and safely extracting and integrating soul parts, via heart-centered connection, dialogue and a highly skilled Psychoshamanic approach.
Emma from UK
Working with Aion has been a gift to me that I truly appreciate. His professionalism and ease shine through in his work. I appreciate the way he shows up as a graceful guide for my inner system. His deft at dropping content and moving to deeper and inner processes has brought considerable insight and clarity to my world. Thank you Aion for helping me find my way on my IFS journey at a critical point in my life.
Jonathan from NYC
Aion has been a tremendous resource to me in my IFS journey. His energy and wisdom have helped me understand and appreciate parts previously mistrusted, misunderstood, or unknown. I would recommend his large body of deep content and interpersonal one-on-one work to anyone interested in deepening their IFS journey.
ESZ from Long island, NY
I began individual sessions with Aion Farvahar to address issues that emerged throughout my life at times when I felt "boxed in" and I would react with anger. Aion’s careful and gracious approach using IFS methods helped me to see the issues in a whole new light. I was able to “meet” my anger and to understand the ways that it protected me from a more vulnerable, younger part of myself. With Aion’s guidance, I have been able to let go of the protective anger and heal my younger self.
Ruth - Michigan
I came across Aion at a very critical time in my life's journey, unable to move forward because of the weight of my past. I knew that I needed help but had little idea of just where to find it. After our first session I was convinced that Aion's blend of shamanism and IFS parts work was something I was meant to work with, and every session since, my life, my mind and especially my soul have smoothly progressed to the point of feeling like a new man: a man without the heaviness of my past leading me through a miserable life.
A from Italy
When I first turned to Aion for help, I knew something was off and I needed to make changes, but I was like in a fog, I couldn’t clearly see the issue. Working with Aion helped me shift focus from outside factors to looking inside myself and seeing where I needed to help myself and rise above my challenges regardless of outside circumstances. My sessions with Aion helped me formulate my key issue and narrow down my focus. I can still see transformation that was set in motion and still unfolding within me. Aion’s gentleness made me feel very comfortable discussing difficult topics, and Aion helped me approach myself with “compassionate curiosity”, seeing the parts of myself that needed my attention and growth.
T. from SF
Throughout years I have taken different courses and sessions for self-improvement and I can truly say that my sessions with Aion have been so eye opening and so different than anything else I had experienced in the past. I have noticed a higher level of self-awareness in my thoughts and actions than before and can say it has shifted my energy towards matters that have higher priority and value in my life. I feel that in time I will reach a level of peace that I have been desiring.

My journey with Aion has given me a completely new perspective on some of my behaviors and allowed me to see some events in my past in a new light. I would recommend Aion’s sessions to anyone trying to restore focus in life or simply trying to understand their own thought processes.

While I have come a long way in my life at the age of 40, from where I have started, but I always knew I can achieve and do much more with my life. But for some reason, I couldn’t convince myself to put the extra efforts needed. Before, I did not care much about my profile and social status as much and this has discouraged me from taking new steps forward. I’m glad the consequences of events, situations, and people around me, led me to work with Aion. I have more optimism now, even have been able to finally lose weights. I believe these have been byproducts of my mental shift and empowerment. My primary goal now is to advance my career. I am more connected to my Self, and feel I’m capable of achieving my goals, and exploring my higher and integrated potentials in the future.
Ben A. from Charlotte, NC
Aion has helped me connect many of my present day behavioral trends and patterns to their root cause. This clarity in discovering the original conception of certain emotion and reactive behaviors to certain triggers of life, has helped tremendously in being able to consciously witness and understand, and in some instances choose a different kind of behavior and emotion to same old triggers. The fact that he has traveled his own journey to self-discovery, wisdom and liberation from emotional bondages of life is truly evident in the way he is able to see far into the past, future, whys and hows of one's concerns almost before they are even fully expressed...

...I feel blessed that our paths have crossed and he has shone a light on the dark alley deep within my soul, I was completely unaware of, which holds the key to the mysteries of why I am the person I am today and the path to evolving into my Higher Self. I recommend working with Aion to anyone on the path of self-discovery, liberation from self-imposed limits, and on the ascending path of spiritual evolution.
Ramona K. from SF
I worked with Aion to get to know myself better. In a few sessions, he has guided me to visit distant childhood memories and dissected my many selves, making me aware of many aspects of me that I have been totally unaware of. The idea is that by going back to early childhood influences, one can mend open wounds that affect us to date. This could be a seemingly unimportant event in kinder-garden or a recurring interaction with mom and dad. I started with a bit of disbelief, but after one or two sessions that it took me to grasp it, I find it a powerful approach that is influencing how I think about myself and my reactions in life. And Aion conducts this inner exploration very well as he is attentive, genuine and caring. I look forward to my future sessions, because I remain curious to discover a bit more of why I sometimes act the way I do.
Alan from Greenville, SC
I am glad I had a few sessions with Aion. I not only felt better after every session, but also noticed a sustainable positive effect in my daily life. You can imagine yourself sitting in a balloon, but the balloon can't really go up because of the many sandbags around it. I felt my sessions helped me see these sandbags from my past and release them to be lighter. I believe the psyche is very complex and it is not always easy to see things clearly in life. Having access to someone like Aion can help in finding clarity and make better decisions. He is great in what he does and cares about his client’s needs and well-being. I now feel more comfortable with myself and with the world around me.
Benjamin from Germany
Aion has a warm personality and genuine compassion for others. He is professional and has invested a lot of time improving himself and his approach. Speaking with him and reading his blog has been inspiring to me. I was able to find and heal some of my emotional burdens going back to my childhood. He not only communicates well verbally but also has a deep understanding of the problems and needs of his clients. Aion is progressive in his approach and is constantly looking for best ways to help his clients. I recommend him to those who are willing to learn more about themselves and their internal thought process.
Maryam T. from Charlotte, NC
My experience with Aion has given me the ability to look at my obstacles from a totally different perspective. If you are looking for answers to the “why” and “how” questions, you will be able to find them in this journey; however, that’s not it. Psychology can answer the “how” questions, detect them, accept them and let you move on to the next one, but working with Aion gave me the chance to find the “why”, accept it and resolve it before I move on to next. This journey has taught me how to solve the problem after accepting it. I was able to detect and maybe accept the impediments I had by using my intellectual mind, but addressing it completely has been the best part of my experience. I do recommend working with Aion if you are a person who is able to be true to yourself. It’s an amazing experience.
