Internal Family Systems

Shine Counseling offers Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy, an innovative approach designed to help individuals understand and harmonize the various aspects of their inner selves. IFS Therapy operates on the premise that the mind comprises multiple sub-personalities or “parts,” each with its own perspectives and roles. By fostering a compassionate and curious relationship with these parts, clients can achieve greater self-awareness and emotional healing.

Key Features of Internal Family Systems Therapy:

• Exploration of Inner Parts: Clients work with therapists to identify and understand the different parts of themselves, recognizing how these parts influence thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
• Self-Leadership Development: IFS emphasizes accessing the core “Self,” characterized by qualities such as compassion, confidence, and clarity, to lead and integrate the various inner parts effectively.
• Healing Past Wounds: By addressing and understanding the origins of certain parts, especially those carrying burdens from past experiences, clients can facilitate healing and promote internal harmony.
• Flexible Session Formats: Therapy sessions are available both in-person at Edify Therapy’s offices and through secure telehealth platforms, accommodating diverse preferences and needs.
