Introducing IFS

A therapy technique called internal family system (IFS) aims to comprehend and repair the many parts of a person’s thinking. The idea behind IFS, is that an individual’s cognitive is made up of several “parts” or subpersonalities. These components might be viewed as individual voices or parts of a person’s personality, each with its own feelings, wants, and thoughts. In order to create a more harmonic and balanced sense of self, the aim of IFS treatment is to promote communication between these parts.
