What is IFS?
INTERNAL FAMILY SYSTEMS
If you have ever said ‘part of my feels X.. and another part feels Y’ then you are already on the way! We meet your voices/parts and your deeper Self (that place within us which is calm, clear, creative, connected and compassionate), so that we can listen better to them, help them and come into harmony. It’s creative, sometimes fun, really interesting and engaging for most clients, also trauma aware, deep, healing and proven to work. Please see below for a 20 min intro to IFS I did in one of the Stroud IFS informed Drop Ins or click on the link for a longer written introduction https://www.stroudtherapy.com/news/whatisifs
What do I do?
In IFS my role is to be a facilitator, a friendly guide there for you and your parts, as you get to know your ‘internal system’, there to help you ask good questions which lead to system changes, unburdening and healing.
What’s after?
I work long and short term, once you've learnt IFS basic protocols you can practice quite a bit on your own, and come back for some more intricate areas. Or carry on for the journey, for the ride, going ever deeper into your system and become increasingly Self led.
