IFS
IFS, or Internal family systems, is a type of therapy that believes we are all made up of several parts or sub-personalities. Theory is that we all have several parts living within us that fulfill both healthy and unhealthy roles. Life events or trauma, however, can force us out of those healthy roles into extreme roles. The goal of IFS therapy is to achieve balance within the internal system and to differentiate and elevate the self so it can be an effective leader in the system.
IFS can help you with: gaining your power back through self-leadership in achieving an internal balance, having more self-compassion, allow you to view depression symptoms as normal reactions to stressors or trauma, and helps prepare for emotional difficulty in the future.
