Another week, another fabulous podcast guest! This week my episode is super exciting as I drill down into Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy or ‘parts therapy’ with the founder, family therapist Dr Richard Schwartz.

Dr Schwartz is an important therapist who has helped many through trauma with his work. He has been in demand and recently featured podcasts with Tim Ferris and Gwyneth Paltrow’s GOOP podcasts discussing his therapy model. IFS is mind-blowing to say the least - during this podcast, I was lucky to have Dr Schwartz apply his therapy to me – it was an amazing experience, and I am so glad to share it with you!

IFS has become a widely used form of psychotherapy, particularly with trauma. It is a non-pathologizing technique that is evidence based and grounded in compassion, trust, honesty, and encouragement.

It invites clients to acknowledge each unique part of themselves and to recognise the strengths and weaknesses within them and how they influence behaviours and emotions.

Stay on until then end when we cover the ways IFS can be used in a Daily Practice to bring us closer to our truer self’ and how IFS is a beautiful, gentle, compassionate, loving, meditation.
Don’t miss out on this enlightening and intriguing conversation –knowledge of your ‘parts ‘will ensure you never see anyone the same again.

This man is a gift to humanity. True healing can come from IFS. I am forever grateful.

I am a big believer in Jung and to me, this takes Jung's theory of the shadow and puts the healing into manageable pieces making the ability to heal much, much easier. Also, in 1981 there was a huge movement called TMI which talked about the Adult, Parent and Child and also internally separated the 3. I love that this addresses many more of the parts. I had hideous abuse as a child and started therapy at 24. I had 7 personalities that I could control but was aware of them. Not knowing, the therapist worked to integrate them. That is all they knew then in the 70's.

This was a fantastic interview! I really loved the questions you asked. I’ve always wondered what the experience was like for Dick at the very beginning of this work but no one ever asks! This was also the best example of the work that I’ve seen in practice too. Your joy and delight was beautiful to witness 💕🙏🏻

Yes, IFS is a path to self leadership

Fascinating discussion on how to bring more love to Self, and experience courage, compassion, clarity, calmness. With IFS method I can do it daily and give it as gift to myself. Thanks Richard And Sharon for throwing some light to this.

I loved listening to this, and congratulate Sharon on participating in a demonstration with Richard. Years ago I participated in an Evolving Your Core Wound course which was very similar. This work is powerful and I use it often as a coach.

I love this, I have learned this and experienced healing from abuse and trauma in the context of spirt soul and body and the voices of each aspect of our true authentic divinely centred self. I am so glad this is cutting edge validation of what can and is found through God and in the church also.

@timmurray7165 5 years ago

Thanks. Loved this. Greater Than the Sum of Your Parts is my favourite tape set. A great intro to IFS

I enjoyed this but feel we would’ve gotten way more information if he wasn’t interrupted so much. It started to feel like the expert was there to confirm the host is right in their thinking and teaching than to host a platform for the expert to reach more people.

My manager made me do extreme exercise and work too much while my firefighter was a sex addict

Seems like this was recorded two years ago. Seems like no hope foe me. I am 76, living in a retirement home. I got your book no bad parts. Too much for me to do on my own. I have suffered from severe social phobia anxiety and panic attacks. Guess I will never “be normal”. I have been searching all my life. Read all the self help trid all the drugs. Feeling hopeless
