What is IFS?

Internal Family Systems has been one of the most transformational treatments weā€™ve taught and experienced at Creative Healing.

Your Internal Family System is made up of a parts of you as well as your true authentic self.

A part can be a specific emotion, exiled emotion, protector (like a manager or firefighter). It can also be represented by a thought, feeling, sensation, urge, behavior etc.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps us understand the different ā€œpartsā€ of ourselvesā€”the protective parts, the wounded parts, and the parts that carry strong emotions. Sometimes these parts take over and we feel blended with them, leaving us anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck.

IFS offers a way to gently unblend from these parts and reconnect with your core Selfā€”the calm, compassionate, and wise center within you. From this place of Self-leadership, healing becomes possible. Your parts can let go of extreme roles, and you can experience more balance, clarity, and inner peace.

 
 

We are your virtual, yet very real group members here to learn, support & connect.

Invite Your Parts in To Take a Seat

WHO IS THIS GROUP FOR?

This group will benefit all types of clients as the skill of understanding your internal system and unblending from it is priceless, however, the following types of clients you are working with can also benefit:

  • Clients who are consistently stuck with the same frequency, intensity and/or duration of a part coming up in their life

  • Clients who are not making progress after consistently using other treatments (CBT, DBT, Talk Therapy, OCD treatment)

  • Clients who frequently feel overwhelmed, distracted, disconnected, numb, out of touch with their intuition or unable to experience compassion or positive feelings in their body.

  • Clients who need reparenting skills for themselves because they did not get these skills growing up.

  • Clients who are having trouble processing emotions and keep repeating ineffective behaviors that they canā€™t seem to stop on their own.

  • Clients who have parts that obsess, ruminate or try and control/fix

  • Clients who have C-PTSD, ADHD, Co-occurring Mood Disorders & Chronic Mental Health Conditions


Did you know you have an inner team?

You may have heard of the movie Inside Out. This Pixar film is a great example of our internal family system and what itā€™s like to bring all of our parts together.


Just like in the movie Inside Out, where we see Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust each playing a role inside Rileyā€™s mind, Internal Family Systems (IFS) teaches us that we all have different ā€œpartsā€ within us. These partsā€”whether protective like Anger, sensitive like Sadness, or joyful like Joyā€”each have an important purpose. IFS helps us learn how to understand, appreciate, and heal these parts so they can work together in harmony, guided by our core Self, which is calm, compassionate, and wise.

FAQ

  • The group will be a hybrid of both a teaching of the skills broken into simple steps along with practicing experiential the exercises. Clients will have the opportunity to share about your experience and receive feedback.

  • In regard to referring to clients, both Rebecca and I feel that the basis of IFS is that it is inclusive of everyone. Like we do in the DBT group, facilitators and co-facilitators do share their experiences and skills usage with discretion but also with comfortable transparency. I would see how it feels to you and your clients. We welcome all to learn the approach and also understand different people will have levels of comfort. 

  • Everyone is Welcome!

  • Right now we are looking at 10 sessions. However, the group will be ongoing so you can repeat and we will also look at what that looks like at the end of those 10.
