Are parts of you feeling insecure, hurt, angry, or protective? But, other parts of you are organized and focused?
You are in the right place. In general, internal family systems therapy is a powerful, transformative, evidence-based model of psychotherapy. Also, only therapists trained in Internal Family Systems as a model of individual therapy can help you utilize it. Now, looking from an internal family systems therapy (IFS) view, your mind is naturally organized into multiple parts.
How do parts work in internal family systems therapy (IFS)?
And, that is a good thing. Essentially, from being human, your inner parts contain valuable qualities. Sometimes, in an effort to push negative feelings away, certain parts of you may self-sabotage. Or, other parts of you may work too much to protect, or other parts may fight back. But, in IFS, at your core, you learn to access your genuine, powerful, compassionate, true Self. From using internal family systems therapy (IFS), you can blossom into a confident, healthy person who knows how to heal yourself from the inside out.

What are manager parts in internal family systems?
To detail, managers are parts that keep you organized, focused, care taking parts. Overall, manager parts protect you from rejection and hurt. However, they prevent you from deep, close relationships. When you hold out on feeling negative emotions life rejection and shame, you also prevent yourself rom feeling joy and true happiness.
Secondly, what are firefighters in internal family systems?
Well, firefighters prevent you from feeling neglect and the other painful exiled emotions (which are important to feel only when self-compassion is developed). So, these are an effort to numb out or soothe yourself. For instance, alcoholism, substance use, gaming and technology addiction is a firefighter part. Furthermore, these are fueled by distraction, obsession, and compulsion. Read more about identifying compulsive over exercising here. So, in IFS, the firefighter preform a behavior to keep the exiled feelings of abandonment and loss at bay.
What are exiled emotions?
To continue, the exiled emotions like loss, shame, guilt, and betrayal all get pushed away. Why? Well, for survival, because they are too much to feel, or it is not safe at the time. The goal is to create safety and security within yourself through working with an internal family systems therapist. Overall, exile emotions are carrying very heavy burdens, maybe even from your parents. Or, even your grandparent’s legacy burdens. Really, all these parts want to do is feel loved, share their trauma story, and be heard. But, the managers and firefighters function because they believe it is still not safe, so they push your inner wounded child away. With counseling, with Katie Ziskind, and using IFS, you can step into personal power, inner strength, courage, and confidence.

We help you feel confident in your skin.
We are compiled of a “multitude” of emotional parts within. For instance, the Pixar movie, Inside Out (2016), shows these emotional parts. Likewise, your parts can show up as inner conflicting, opposing thoughts, feelings, addictions, and sensations. Let’s say, now you are thinking about a relationship and dating again. In dating coaching, you may have parts of you that feel inferior and insecure inside, like you are not good enough. Also, you may have another part that just wants to feel freedom and let loose. Then, another part wants to goto the gym and blow off your first date plans, because your mind says that it isn’t worth it. Once we build a relationship with our parts, integration and healing can occur. So, your true self may say it’s safe to date again and that you know everything will work out.
In using IFS in therapy, it will connect you with a larger, calmer, universal, and greater sense of Self within.
