What is IFS and How it Works
​
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a holistic therapeutic modality that views each person’s mind being made up of different parts with jobs that differ but all have the goal of helping us to survive and maintain a type of balance. All of our parts work hard to help us survive and keep us safe. When there is a traumatic event our parts will adopt beliefs or burdens and other parts will adopt extreme protective roles and maintain them long after the danger has passed so we do not feel the pain we did when we were originally hurt. These extreme parts can look like shaming critics, addicts, dissociative parts, caretakers, perfectionists, overachievers, parts that believe we are worthless, stupid , unlovable the and list goes on. These parts are young and frozen in the past. When they are triggered we become that age and are blended with their reality. None of these parts are sick they simply are stuck in a form of Groundhog Day.
​
IFS is a way of helping those wounded parts heal and relieve their burdens by introducing them to our Self energy. It is the energy that is in all of us and is present in all of our parts. It is the source of healing and renewal. It is not a part but rather the essence of Life that we all carry. It has the ability to be compassionate, calm, curious, creative, connected, clear, courageous, and confident with all our parts fostering a space for healing. The goal of IFS is to help parts develop a trusting relationship with our Self Energy that allows us to speak and act for our parts and not from them, so we can lead a full and intentional life.
