Settle the Differences in the Family Living Inside
Wednesday, February 22, 2023 @ 11:15 am - 1:00 pm
You know that we each have a family around us. Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a counseling theory that examines the family inside us. You know when “a part of me wants to do this and another part of me wants to do that.” The family inside us is essentially all those “parts”—the oftentimes-conflicted sub-personalities that reside within us.These sub-personalities sometimes contain wounded parts and painful emotions such as anger or shame. Other parts try to control and protect you from the pain of those wounded parts.
IFS examines the parts that make up the family inside. This provides a better understanding of the parts that can hold us back. Then we can work with those parts to become a whole and healthy internal family system. Come along as we explore how our inner child, inner critic, and the people-pleasing adult within us can get along much better.
