I started to conclude that maybe there aren't any bad parts, and it turns out that Some Years Later, that's true. Thousands of people using this and thousands of people all over the world, we can safely say there aren't.
Ever wondered why you have an inner critic or a part of you that's always cheering you on? Dr. Richard Schwartz, a systemic family therapist, explains this fascinating concept in the latest episode of 'Beyond Theory'. He believes our minds are naturally made up of different parts, and that's not just normal—it's beneficial. But how do these parts differ from something like multiple personality disorder? Dr.
Schwartz dives into his development of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach, which he created after noticing these 'parts' in his clients and himself. Dr. Schwartz shares his journey from being a traditional family therapist focused on changing external systems to realizing the importance of understanding our internal ones. He argues that focusing solely on the 'addict part' in addiction treatment isn't helpful. Instead, he advocates for recognizing and unburdening all our internal parts, approaching them with curiosity and calmness.
This method has helped thousands of people worldwide feel happier, more creative, and loving. In this episode, you'll hear about Dr. Schwartz's collaboration with Meadows Behavioral Healthcare and his work with celebrity clients. His insights challenge conventional addiction treatment methods and emphasize the importance of self-discovery and systems thinking in mental health. Whether you're on a personal recovery journey or just curious about mental health, this episode offers a transformative conversation you won't want to miss.
