Internal Family Systems Therapy

Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy is a counseling approach that views the mind as made up of multiple parts, each with its own perspective and emotions. These parts can include wounded or protective voices that influence thoughts and behaviors. The goal is to develop a compassionate relationship with these parts, helping them heal and work together harmoniously. IFS emphasizes understanding and integrating these parts, enabling individuals to foster self-awareness, reduce inner conflict, and promote emotional well-being. It sees the core self as a compassionate leader that can guide and heal these internal parts.
