Try Talking to Your Parts
Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS) was recently featured on NPR.
“At the center of IFS — sometimes called ‘parts work’ — is the idea that each of us has multiple parts, kind of like sub-personalities. Getting to know them and treating them with compassion may help us manage our lives and our stress better.”
“’We’re all multiple,’ says IFS founder Richard Schwartz. We all have multiple perspectives within — for example, people often identify an inner critic, worrier, or striver. And some parts tend to dominate our lives, while others are more hidden. IFS teaches a process to embrace all your parts, bring them into balance and find a sense of wholeness.”
