INTERNAL FAMILY SYSTEMS

IFS recognises that we all have different internal "parts"—the inner critic, the people-pleaser, the anxious protector—and that these parts developed to help us survive difficult experiences. Rather than trying to eliminate or override these parts, this approach helps you understand what they're protecting and develop a compassionate relationship with them. It's particularly effective when you experience internal conflict, harsh self-criticism, feeling stuck between competing desires, or when past trauma has created protective patterns that no longer serve you. The goal is accessing your core Self—the calm, confident, compassionate part of you that can lead.
