Healing SHAME, calming your INNER CRITIC, and exiting SURVIVAL MODE requires specific steps to be effective long-term.

And the order of the steps matters.

The Befriending Your Parts Framework gives you the clear ROADMAP to your healing,

So no guesswork, just a clear path to healing.

Let me know if any of this resonates…

You...

  • Know you're dealing with unresolved Shame
  • Have an Inner Critic harping in your ear
  • Feel things deeply -- and often feel "too sensitive"
  • Feel stuck in Survival Mode -- dealing with anxiety, shame, people-pleasing, anger, and/or shut down.

And you…

  • Are ready to do the work to heal and rewire
  • Are interested in an Integrative Approach that combines brain, nervous system, and body-based healing
  • Are open to learning something new, listening to the course material, and doing the practices to heal

If any of this resonates, I see you. I know how heavy this can feel.

Now, I encourage you to imagine something different for a moment…

Take a moment and imagine…

Being your own good friend, feeling at home in your body and at ease in your mind, and trusting yourself fully...

Imagine…

  • Spaciousness in your mind
  • Ease in your body
  • Trusting in yourself
  • Socializing and enjoying it.
  • Knowing you have the knowledge and tools to manage whatever comes your way in life.
  • Being able to have healthy relationships---with healthy communication.
  • Waking up without that underlying feeling of shame and anxiety.
  • Feeling your worth and knowing deeply you're so deserving of love and good things.
  • Experiencing joy and compassion instead of fear and shame.

Introducing The
Befriending Your Parts
Framework

WHAT MAKES THE BEFRIENDING YOUR PARTS FRAMEWORK DIFFERENT

  • It gives you a clear ROADMAP with the right steps, in the right order
  • It takes an INTEGRATIVE approach that combines 6 pillars: Nervous System Regulation, Heart Coherence, Parts Work, Self-Compassion, Cognitive Restructuring, and Attachment Healing
  • It works with your system, your survival brain, your logic brain, and your body, not just mindset
  • I know my students’ names, stories, and healing process so I can offer individualized support
  • You get a lot of direct access to me personally
  • Other spaces with this level of support often cost $3000–$6000+ and BYP is a fraction of that cost
  • You choose the level of support that fits you

The Befriending Your Parts Framework seamlessly combines these Evidence-Based methods:

Nervous System Regulation

To build resilience and flexibility in your nervous system, and create a felt sense of safety. When your system is stuck in threat, it’s not a mindset issue—it’s a survival response. This part of the work helps you gently shift out of fight, flight, freeze, and fawn by bringing your system into regulation. You’ll learn how to reconnect with your True Self, access your prefrontal cortex (your brain’s center for clarity and choice), and build a foundation of internal safety. Because healing can’t happen when your system still feels like it’s in danger.

Heart Coherence

To shift out of stress and reconnect with your inner wisdom. Heart coherence is a powerful, science-backed way to regulate your system by aligning your heart, brain, and emotions. When you learn to access it, you send a signal of safety through your entire body—allowing you to feel calm, grounded, and connected to yourself. This isn’t woo. It’s neuroscience. And it creates the conditions your system needs to heal from shame.

Parts Work/IFS

You’ll learn the step-by-step process for working with your Inner Critics, and learn about the 7 different types of Inner Critics. You’ll also work with your other Protector Parts related to Shame, like the People-Pleasing Part, the Anxious Part, the Numbing Part, the Anger Part, the Overthinking Part, the Ruminating Part, etc… This work helps you recognize those Parts, understand what they’ve been trying to protect you from, and support them in letting go of the extreme roles they’ve been stuck in. You’ll stop being taken over by self-criticism, spiraling thoughts, and anxiety — because you’ll learn how to take those Protector Parts out of the extreme roles they’ve been placed in..

Self-Compassion Work

Self-Compassion is necessary for healing, as you can’t heal shame by shaming yourself. This part of the work teaches you how to meet yourself with compassion, even when Parts of you feel hard to love. \ Because true resilience comes from safety—not pressure. And when your system finally receives the care it needed all along, it stops bracing for attack. You’ll learn even more tools to connect to your True Self and nurture the Parts of you that needs it.

Cognitive Restructuring

To rewire the beliefs that keep you stuck in shame and self-doubt. Most of your self-critical thoughts aren’t actually you—they’re echoes of past experiences. This part of the work helps you identify and untangle those old belief patterns, so you can stop automatically believing the shame story.

Attachment & Relational Healing

To feel safe with others and show up authentically in relationships. When you’ve been hurt, rejected, or abandoned, it impacts how you show up with others. You might expect rejection, shut down during conflict, or stay silent to avoid being too much. This part of the framework helps you more deeply understand your attachment patterns, and nurture the Parts of yourself that have been hurt – which is the root of the shame.

What Clients & Students Have To Say...

It's been a few months now since I finished the Befriending Your Parts ... and I didn't know how much better it would get.
Sometimes we finish courses, you feel good for a bit and then you forget about the information but I have found that I am integrating more and more from the course as I navigate difficult situations that would have normally caused me major self-esteem crashes. I find that I am stronger and stronger as I continually integrate the information from the course. So if you're wondering if this course is worth it in the long run, I'm an example that it is. Thank you to Chantal for the amazing support.
I feel like I'm a newer, stronger person (and I'm saying this as I'm navigating through a trigger to my self-esteem!! Goes to show the power of having this knowledge, understanding, and support!)
When the darkness settles in, because life is not perfect, I know I have the tools to help me, and I am forever grateful to Chantal for helping me get to this point.
I had done therapy for a few years before meeting Chantal, and I have gotten to this point in only a few months since starting the course and having her support. So so grateful!!!"
Kim A.
Before finding BYPF, I was somewhat lost in, and overwhelmed by my protector parts. I had attended regular therapy sessions, which played their part, but normally left me back at square one after a time. Chantel's BYPF program has not only allowed me to identify what I didn't know, but also given me the tools and environment ( group sessions )that feels to be changing my mind's misdirection , and positively influencing my life.
BYPF has helped me identify a number of negative internal loops & influences that I was not previously conscious of. Understanding these influences, in conjunction with learning to regulate my nervous system, I would say have been the most beneficial.
Course content is easy to follow and allows space to digest the topics, at your own pace. Having been in BYPF since June, sharing a number of conversations and group sessions, I can attest Chantel's professional , passionate, and sincere delivery of the content is a massive plus. I love the reflection exercises and guided practices, personally I resonate with this type of regulative, reflective learning.
To be honest at first I really didn't know what to expect. But accepting, non-judgmental, educational experiences are three things that come to mind in describing the group sessions. Listening & learning from others' experiences and perspective , under your guidance, adds another dimension to the course.
Ash A.
To someone who I don’t know, and is willing to join BYPF, I would say: if you are having a hard time, we’re here for you; if you need a safe space just to be heard, we’re here for you; if you are in need of some help, in any way, we’re here; if you’re suffering from any trauma, low self esteem, dysregulated nervous system, guess what?… we’re here!!! There is nothing but love, support, trust, compassion, empathy in this community! 💓. Not only will new members be accepted with the most amount of love, they will be helping themselves and us, and this is an incredible thing to do.
Nastasja D (current BYFP student)
I have been working with Chantal for over 3 years, and she has had a lasting and profound impact on my life. Her compassionate, non-judgemental, empathetic and highly perceptive approach has helped me develop a deeper understanding of myself and move through life's challenges. In particular, Chantal's expertise in self-esteem, nervous system regulation and internal family systems work has equipped me with the strategies and tools to reach my full potential. Chantal has an exceptional combination of knowledge, psychotherapy experience and heartfelt commitment to helping humans heal. I would recommend anyone to work with Chantal. I am so grateful for the work we have done together, and the breakthroughs I've reached over the years.
Sonia B.
I have been going to therapy for about 4 years on and off. BFYP actually the first time I am working on my nervous system. I like that I am actually doing the work and the results. And the fact that we have Thursdays meetings, the practice sessions. I think, it is very beneficial to regulate nervous system. Thank you Chantal!
Assel Z.
I'm crying! Thank you so much for everything! I feel so empowered and couldn't imagine l'd be here! You've done so much for me, I don't have words to tell you my gratitude!!
Kim A.
For years I just couldn't talk about stuff. It's not about being believed its trying to handle others emotional reactions while your trying to work throw your own emotions. But the befriending your parts group is like sort of a safe space where it's not so dangerous to open up a little.
Steve W.
Chantal is the first therapist after many therapists over 30 years to help me understand and value myself. She reminded me the other week that I told her I hated myself in one of our first sessions. Chantal always talks about my relationship with myself. I used to say Blah-Blah-Blah. That sounded so out there to me when I started therapy. Now, I cherish my relationship with myself and I am my own friend. Chantal, you are the best,
Simone G.
When I started The Befriending Your Parts Framework six months ago, I thought self-compassion sounded like a 'nice to have' but I couldn't imagine it for myself. I had really harsh inner critics with unkind voices bullying me, and I felt nothing but shame, anxiety and despair. Working through the framework, along with Chantal's guidance and caring support, allowed me to identify my true self, and take the parts working way too hard out of their extreme roles so that I could see they were not truly 'me'. The program gave me many tools that help manage triggers, emotions and situations with much more resilience, and now my inner voice is often kind and encouraging, and I can give myself that self-compassion I didn't think was possible.
Janet D.
Learning to regulate my nervous system and to self-soothe has been so helpful in helping me deal with my chronic anxiety and low self esteem. I have been living in my head for over 35 years and the course is helping me reconnect to my body's sensations and emotions. I especially like the Thursday calls where we practice nervous system regulation tools.
Chantal is an incredibly compassionate guide on this journey.
She will listen to you, support you, and give you the tools you need to learn to understand, trust, accept, and ultimately love yourself. This course will help you repair the most important relationship you will ever have: the one with yourself.
Celine A.
I started therapy with Chantal in January 2024 and was really stuck. Chantal introduced me to The Befriending Your Parts Framework to help me which took me a little more than 3 months to complete. I am thrilled to say I am not stuck anymore.

I have gained self-respect, healthy boundaries with my loved ones, a sense of purpose in my life that was lacking, a connection to who I really am, a connection to all “parts” of me, self-compassion, tools to soothe myself when I get stressed out and tools to keep my nervous system calm. Chantal has a way of making you feel like she is inside your experience. If I could rate it, I would give it 5 shining stars!

This course is sooooooooooooo good. The best purchase I've made in a long time.

Frequently Asked Questions

I can't afford it. What do I do?

I totally get that. It’s an investment. I’ve literally spent tens of thousands learning to feel good about myself and safe in my body. 

And I also want to be really honest–it’s costing you way more in other ways not to take action.

I feel so confident in the BYP that I offer incredible guarantees. 

For Option 1, you have 2 weeks to get a full refund.

For Option 2, if you join for 3 months of group coaching–you have 2 weeks to get a full refund.

For Option 3, if you join for 6 months of group coaching–if you don’t see results within one full year, and can show that you’ve gone through the material, have attended some group coaching calls, and done the work–I’ll give you every single penny back.

I want to take the weight of the decision off your shoulders–because I know it’s hard.

And I also know this works.

So I’m happy to discuss payment plan options with you!

And I always have a limited number of sliding fee spots to make this work as accessible as I can.

You can expect– if you’re going slowly through the material and doing the practices– to see results within the first 2-3 months. Within 6 months, students  start to see huge shifts, such as connecting to their true self, a large reduction in anxiety, joy, a release of shame, compassion for themselves (and their Parts), etc..

The course material is meant to go slow. I suggest listening to 30 minutes to 1 hour of video content per week to give your system the time to digest. This is about healing and rewiring, so the time in between to digest and do the practices are where the healing takes place.

This is so common and natural to feel this way. I speak about this on the webinar at the end. So many students join saying they don’t like groups or community, and then later say it was the greatest piece of their healing. Every single student who has joined the BYP community calls it “the safest space”—and this is so healing to your system. There is something so powerful in not feeling alone.

Does The Befriending Your Parts Framework focus on Nervous System Regulation?

Yes! Nervous system regulation is a fundamental component that always gets overlooked. Nervous system healing is required—and so it’s the first thing we address before moving deeper into parts work and self-compassion work (yet you’ll see how they’re all intertwined as you go). The Befriending Your Parts Framework will give you tools you can use for the rest of your life.

It’s meant for you if you struggle feel good about yourself, to feel safe in your body, and to feel comfortable around others— and you want a clear roadmap to healing so that you can have the quality of life that will make life feel good instead of hard.

The reflection exercises are essential for healing. However, you don’t need to write. You can think or talk aloud to yourself. It’s really about processing. Writing helps to process really well, yet it’s not necessary!
The important thing is that you listen to your body — If it doesn’t eel like the right time to do that exercise, honour that. You can skip any exercise you need to in that moment. There is no pass or fail in The Befriending Your Parts Framework!
It felt important (as a trauma therapist) for me to create a framework that spoke to the effects of trauma and nervous system dysregulation, as this is what is often the root of low self-esteem. I offer reminders at the beginning of each module to listen to the videos in the ways that feel ok for you, to pause when something does not feel ok, and to take as many breaks as possible. The videos are also digestible and easy to understand. My aim in the community is to create a safe space, both through my videos content and also in how I show up for you. I’m here for you the whole way! Many of the students who are in The Befriending Your Parts Framework have experienced some form of trauma/attachment wound, as Self-Esteem is often a symptom of trauma and attachment wounds. We get to the root in The Befriending Your Parts Framework in a way that feels safe and manageable.

Have a question? I'm here to answer it!
