Real IFS Therapy Session with "Sarah" - Internal Family Systems Demo Pt. 1

Going Inside: Healing Trauma from the Inside Out

In this episode of the Going Inside Podcast, I conduct a live Internal Family Systems (IFS) demo with Sarah, a client who explores her discomfort with vulnerability and connection. Together, we uncover the roots of these feelings in a protective part that emerged during childhood, carrying grief and longing for attunement. We create a safe space for this part, paving the way for healing and rediscovering joy.

*This is part 1 of a 3 part series of real Internal Family Systems therapy sessions
*Please note that the client's name has been changed to protect their privacy.

Key Takeaways:

1. Protective parts often arise in childhood to shield us from pain and can be released through acknowledgment and care.
2. Creating a safe, compassionate space for your parts fosters healing and deeper self-awareness.
3. When burdens are lifted, parts can rediscover their original roles, enabling greater emotional balance and fulfillment.
