Join me as I speak with Jennifer Schrappe, a licensed professional clinical counselor based in Ohio about internal family systems.
Originally created by Dr Richard Schwartz, within the framework of IFS, one of the best things we can do for ourselves is to get to know all of our parts and realize there are “no bad parts.” They all have their purpose and reason for existing in the way that they do. If we can make space for them, begin to recognize, engage and dialogue with them, we can go a long way to understanding, and even healing, ourselves. Jennifer provides us with a way to begin this inner exploration on our own, and offers advice on when it might be wise to seek out the services of a professional.
Today’s take-away is the reminder that there is always a reason for feeling the way that you do – and that that reason is *not* that you are crazy, more messed up than anyone else, or that there is something wrong with you. You are simply a human having a very human experience within a very human life.
