Heal From the Inside Out
Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy is a powerful, evidence-based approach that helps you understand and heal the different “parts” of yourself with compassion rather than judgment.
If you feel stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change, overwhelmed by emotions, or disconnected from your true self, IFS therapy can help you create lasting change.
What Is IFS Therapy?
IFS views the mind as made up of distinct parts, each with its own thoughts, emotions, and roles.
Rather than seeing these parts as problems to eliminate, IFS helps you understand how they are trying to protect you.
IFS therapy holds the belief that everyone has a self; a calm, compassionate, and confident inner leader.
Healing happens when your Self learns to relate to your parts with curiosity and care.
How IFS Therapy in New England Helps
In IFS therapy, we gently explore the parts of you that may feel anxious, critical, avoidant, angry, or overwhelmed. These parts often developed in response to past experiences or trauma and are doing their best to keep you safe.
Through IFS therapy, you can:
Identify and understand your internal parts
Unburden painful emotions and beliefs
Build self-compassion and emotional clarity
Develop healthier inner and outer relationships
Restore peace and joy in your life
