Get to Know Your Inner World with Internal Family Systems (IFS) Informed Therapy
feeling many ways about something?
Have you ever felt like there’s a constant debate happening in your head? One part of you wants to relax, but another part says you’re being lazy. One part feels confident, but another whispers that you’re not enough. It’s like there’s a whole cast of characters inside, each with their own story, pulling you in different directions.
This inner conflict can feel overwhelming, but Internal Family Systems (IFS) Informed Therapy helps make sense of it. IFS, or parts work, is about understanding and healing the different parts of you, so they work together instead of against each other.
Why Choose Internal Family Systems Informed Therapy?
-
Strengthen Your Core Self
Rather than focusing only on surface symptoms, IFS works with the underlying causes of your struggles, such as past wounds, fears, or unmet needs.
At the heart of IFS is the belief that your Self—the wise, compassionate, and calm part of you—is always there. IFS therapy empowers you to reconnect with that Self and lead your life from a place of clarity and strength.
-
Learn without judgement
IFS sees every part of you as having good intentions, even the ones causing pain or discomfort. Instead of trying to "fix" you, it helps you understand and heal.
-
Promote Inner Peace
IFS helps your inner "parts" stop fighting each other and start working together, so you can feel more balanced, calm, and confident.
Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, or perfectionism, IFS offers tools to heal emotional pain and create lasting change.
What Is Internal Family Systems?
IFS is a therapeutic approach that sees your mind as a system of “parts.” These parts aren’t random—they’re all trying to help you in some way, even if their methods sometimes feel unhelpful. At the core of IFS is the belief that you have a wise, calm Self that can lead and heal these parts when they’re overwhelmed or stuck.
Here’s how it works:
Exiled Parts: These are the vulnerable parts of you carrying pain or hurt from past experiences. They often feel hidden or ignored.
Protectors: These parts step in to shield your exiles. They might show up as perfectionism, anxiety, anger, or avoidance.
The Self: Your calm, compassionate core self—always there, even when it feels buried.
IFS helps you reconnect with your Self so you can guide and heal these parts, leading to greater balance, understanding, and peace.
What Does Parts Work Look Like in Therapy?
In therapy, we’ll:
Identify your parts: Recognize the voices or feelings showing up and understand their roles.
Build relationships: Learn to approach each part with curiosity and compassion, not judgment.
Heal your inner world: Work with the parts carrying pain or fear, so they can release their burden and feel supported by your Self.
You’ll learn to step into the role of a compassionate leader for your inner world, helping your parts work together instead of pulling you in different directions.
