About this listen

Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) provides a revolutionary treatment plan for PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, eating disorders, and more.

Using a non-pathologizing, accelerated approach—rooted in neuroscience—IFS applies inner resources and self-compassion for healing emotional wounding at its core. This new audio manual offers straight-forward explanations and illustrates a wide variety of applications. Easy to listen to and highly practical.

  • Step-by-step techniques
  • Annotated case examples
  • Unique meditations
  • Downloadable exercises, worksheets

IFS is Evidence-Based

Thirty years ago, IFS creator Richard Schwartz, PhD, listened to his clients describing the behaviors and fears of their most extreme parts. He found that the inner world of all his clients was characterized by parts who have a positive intent for the client but had taken on extreme roles in an effort to be safe. He also discovered that these extreme parts would become less disruptive and more cooperative once their concerns were addressed and they felt safer.

IFS views psychic multiplicity as the norm: we all have parts. In addition, every part has a good intention for the client, and every part has value. When clients listen to all their parts, they can heal their wounded parts.

Today, IFS, which has established a legacy of efficiency and effectiveness in treating many mental health issues, is being heralded by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk as a treatment that all clinicians should know.

Amazing listen

I refreshed on some family systems I learned in school but I also learned some new perspectives as well.

Thorough.

I appreciate the narration, it's comforting while providing strong emphasis on the material provided. Have already recommended to other colleagues, and will continue.

Clear and Complete

I found this audiobook to be a perfect guideline and reminder of all the steps for working with protector parts. Therapists can use this as an aid to working with clients as well as dealing with their own parts.

Not Good as an Audiobook

I love psychology and audiobooks work best for me to learn and absorb. I am a huge fan of "The Body Keeps the Score", "Lost Connections", etc. I thought this would be a fun review of IFS and help me to revisit it. I was wrong. This is probably a very interesting workbook but as an audiobook it is extremely lacking, first book I've ever returned. If you think this is an interesting topic buy a hard copy or the kindle version.

IFS

Wrong way of doing an audible it’s very distracting to listen to a dialogue this way
