We all know what it is to feel conflicting emotions – “a part of me wants to .. and then there’s a part of me that doesn’t" – as we grapple with our internal self, desires, and behaviors.
Think about the family of emotions from Pixar’s movie Inside Out - how family of emotions, Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust and Anger all interacted inside Riley Anderson’s mind to form her reactions and memories.
Now you are thinking through the lens of Internal Family Systems therapy.
Most modes of psychotherapy believe to have “parts” is pathological, but in IFS therapy, the idea of multiplicity of the mind is normal. Every part has a good intention, and every part has value. All clients have the ability to heal themselves if they listen to their parts. Once you see this powerful modality in action, you’ll want to immediately incorporate it into your practice.
In developing IFS therapy 30 years ago, creator Richard Schwartz, Ph.D., realized that clients were describing experiences with various parts, many extreme, within themselves. When these parts felt safe and had their concerns addressed, they were less disruptive. He recognized that, as in systemic family theory, parts take on characteristic roles that help define the inner world of the client.
Dr. Bessel van der Kolk has heralded IFS therapy as the treatment that all clinicians should know in order to treat clients effectively (van der Kolk 2015).
