The must-have introduction to the IFS therapy model to help understand how your mind works.

Incredible Jonathan Van Ness
Groundbreaking Gabor Mate
Paradigm-shifting Stephen Porges

We're all familiar with self-talk, self-doubt, self-judgement - and yet many of us still believe we have one uniform mind.

Dr Richard Schwartz's breakthrough model of therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), revealed that our minds are made up of distinct parts that form our 'internal family', from Protectors and Exiles to Managers and Firefighters.

Introduction to Internal Family Systems is the practical guide you need to understand how your mind works and uncover the life-changing power of IFS. Learn how to restore wholeness with the 8 Cs of 'Self' - confidence, calmness, creativity, clarity, courage, curiosity, compassion and connectedness - and unburden your mind with the compassionate and courageous within yourself.
