Understanding Your Inner Parts: Dr. Richard Schwartz on Internal Family Systems Therapy

What I've tried to do is provide an alternative paradigm for understanding human nature that allows for the kind of compassion you're talking about, both for yourself and you know, when you're in self and you think: oh, this person who's being mean to me, that's their part, and they must.
Ever feel like different parts of you are constantly at odds? Dr. Richard Schwartz, a seasoned family therapist and the mind behind Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy, joins Lee Davy in this episode of '1000 Days Sober'. Dr. Schwartz shares how his groundbreaking approach helps individuals identify and work with the various parts of their psyche, each with its own unique role and perspective.
Through engaging stories and practical examples, he explains how these 'parts' can be understood and harmonized to foster self-awareness, compassion, and emotional balance. You'll learn about 'legacy burdens'—the emotional baggage we carry from our ancestors and childhood—and how IFS Therapy offers a way to address these deep-seated issues. Whether you're a therapist looking for new techniques or someone on a personal journey of healing, this episode offers valuable insights into a therapy model that's transforming lives.
