Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS is an integrative approach to psychotherapy developed by Richard C. Schwartz in the 1980s which describes the human psyche as multi-faceted, consisting of different parts each with its own qualities and a consciousness (Self) to manage them.
These parts may have opposing goals, for example, one part wants to move forward and another part just wants to be left alone.
IFS will seek to clarify the situation by enabling us to recognise which parts are involved, how they interact with each other and with the system, what emotions accompany them and what their needs are.
