Psychotherapy Practice – Beyond Words Psychotherapy
Beyond Words Psychotherapy maintains two San Francisco office addresses: 44 Tehama Street and 2443 Fillmore Street, Suite 380-16141. The practice is operated by Scott Moresi, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of clinical experience. Moresi holds Level 3 Certification in Internal Family Systems therapy, which is the highest certification tier offered by the IFS Institute and reflects advanced training in this model. He is also a Certified Pain Reprocessing Therapist. Additional training backgrounds include EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and the Hakomi Method, a body-centered somatic psychotherapy approach that integrates mindfulness with attention to physical sensations and experience.
Beyond Words Psychotherapy centers its clinical work on Internal Family Systems therapy and Pain Reprocessing Therapy as its two primary modalities. Pain Reprocessing Therapy is a structured approach focused on addressing chronic pain by working with the neural pathways thought to be involved in ongoing pain perception. IFS-informed EMDR is also offered, combining two evidence-referenced frameworks for clients presenting with complex trauma and related concerns. The integration of IFS and EMDR represents a growing area within trauma-focused psychotherapy practice.
The practice serves individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, major life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ identity-related concerns. Services include individual therapy, trauma counseling, anxiety counseling, depression therapy, and IFS consultation, which is available for clinicians and others seeking professional guidance on applying the Internal Family Systems model. Prospective clients are offered a free 30-minute initial consultation to discuss their needs and assess fit with the practice’s approach.
Although the practice maintains physical office spaces in San Francisco at both the Tehama Street and Fillmore Street addresses, sessions are delivered primarily via online therapy, with services available to clients throughout California. This statewide online delivery expands access to Moresi’s Level 3 IFS certification and Pain Reprocessing Therapy training beyond the immediate Bay Area. Insurance and fee details are not specified on the practice website.
