Living in a remote area of the world without access to IFS trained therapists makes this video recording an amazing source of learning and encouragement for me. I am trying to treat myself in the hope that I can in some small way help others. Thank you for this gift. Thank you!

This was so helpful to watch. I have gone through IFS therapy, but watching someone else go through it, makes the whole process a lot more clear to me. Thank you for the experience!

I particularly like this session over others on KZfaq because he seems more unsure and cautious. I can see myself more in his demeanor then the others. Maybe IFS will help. Thanks to both of you for the session!

Dr. Chaya, to you and your client, thank you for sharing this incredibly informative session. Your compassion and intelligence offer so much hope.

Love this so much. What an amazing demo. And I love that the client is not convinced because I feel like that sometime so it's super helpful to see the example 😊

Your way-of-being is healing. I esp noticed it from about 11:50-13:40. 'Oh so THAT is what it sounds like and feels like to really accept oneself...... Ohhhhhhhh nowwww I get it. ' All the space you gave, after, too, allows it to become embodied, I felt. Wow. You're amazing at this.

Thanks for sharing this, really helpful to continue learning how to share this work with clients!

Brilliant demo. So helpful!! Thanks.

This was so beautifu!! It got me in touch with how much confusion I felt about wanting to reject the burdens that came with identifying with being Jewish and Jewish traditions. I should have been fluent in Yiddish, since my mother and grandparents, who lived in the same duplex spoke it all the time, as did many of my relatives, but part of me refused to become fluent, even after I was sent to after school classes to learn it. Other kids there were fluent. I feel uncomfortable with the Jewish holidays and traditions, and we were not observant or believers and neve went to temple. My mother's attitude was that nothing I was going thru was important because the comparison group was the suffering of the Jewish people... pogroms, holocause, anti-semitism, etc. This demo will be a major trailhead for me to sort out what has been in background all my life and maybe allow me to decide, from self, how I want to be Jewish. Thank you!!!

You are an amazing therapist! So perceptive. I found this absolutely inspiring.

Thanks for sharing! Fantastic demo. We (a latin american community) are having a workshop with Richard Schwartz at the end of this month and we are Thrilled!

Beautiful! I'm happy for you, man.

Although I would have used a different method and process to access the exile, the way she used indirect access to have the client interact with the old wound was wonderful.The third grader had so much to say and that's so significant. When he said, "he just needs time to play," I teared up. That's so powerful. I also love when the tool transformed into a clothespin and the job changed. That is true transformational change.

This was helpful. Thank you!

This is great. Thank you, both.

I LOVE THIS!!! Thank you very much for sharing it! 😊🥰

Fascinating stuff. Thanks to you and your patient for sharing.

Loved watching this session, thank you both for the openness and vulnerability

I just discovered IFS this morning. I'm an ADHD coach, I love this process, already. Just watched a demo before this with Dr Schwartz which was amazing! This one though resonated with me so much from the eye contact to the fear of manipulation to the legacy burdens. It seemed like it brought up some of my parts, almost like they were listening and going “yes! yes!” We are so glad you found that first clamp that nearly got lost or left out!🤣 Your insight, skill and holding space is so on point! Thank you so much for this demo. I know it's preferred to see a therapist but can some work be done by/on oneself? Thanks again🙏🏾

This really helped to put the theory into practice. Will be watching it more than once, for sure. Thank you.

Wow ! What an awesome session. Beautiful work the 2 of you! But wow chaya !

I get why people get annoyed with this type of therapy. The therapists insist that any negative emotion is a “part” but any positive emotion is the “self”. I don’t know if I totally subscribe to this, but that’s why I’m really loving this upload! It’s way more realistic. If I only ever saw perfect IFS sessions, I would hate myself so much when my session is difficult. I love how he kept at it despite the difficulty, and how both therapists had patience. Edit: of course with it being a demo, its still staged but like, it is what it is

Such a strong kan! And thank you so much for being great at this and helping him!

I am going to start IFS and this was very informative. Helps me know what to expect. Ty.

I have been bouncing between Internal Family Systems and Bowen Family Systems. I can relate to both. I am also in ACA. What I like about IFS is that I can label a part without actually knowing what that part is. I have difficulty in ACA knowing my parts. The Bowen Family Systems shows why we get all the parts and then what approach to use in dealing with those parts. I do agree with Richard Schwartz about when we get good at this we become our own Therapist..

Masterpiece.

Thank you for this demo. I was curious about IFS and now I have a clearer picture.

So helpful 💕🏝💕

Fantastic!

thank you for this video! very useful!

If he prioritized his inner child he could schedule time to go to the beach and play with the children in his family. He could plan his vacations so they met this need for himself and his family in the real world. Chances are the family all need it. Ongoing self love without guilt, for maintenance, can include and benefit the family.

Id love to learn the IFS method of therapy...along with intergating the Shadow Work, inner child healing and learning about how to heal the intergenerational trauma/s

Thank you for making this video. I'm watching now for the first time a video of IFS therapy. It was very informative. My question is what happened with the long scroll of fears, I don't understand how this got resolved?

It's been 1 year. Can we have an update of this man's life? Thank you.

Is the talking to parts meant to be a sort of active imagining?

Excellent session. Thank you. Linda Rivadeneyra, LMFT

I know this is an old video... but is it weird that I had to stop watching the video when they started talking about the upset, scared little part...? Because it was too close to home and personal for my little part, Enari. :( We started crying.... A whole bunch of exchanges between my parts happened after that but yeah, might have to watch this demonstration some other time...

Well structured! Well orchestrated and well fascillated IFS. Are you from Israel?

It’s obvious the therapist is still learning and shows in how she works with the patient. But they got to where he needed to go as she stayed with the process. The patient gave good feedback and asked for clarification. Now he can work on his codependency.

wait.. can i do ifs if i have aphantasia? is it fine if i cant visualise it?

I have trapped childhood trauma in my gut. Chronic bloating and have just started IFS therapy. I struggle to access any parts as my self won’t allow it to and find it hard to get into it

35:20

I have the feeling this is Ericksonian Hypnosis.

Edit: OOHHH! It’s visualization based! Oh… that sucks.. well, I’m glad it helps other people. I have no ability to actually visualize things. When my eyes close I only see black. . . A SHAPE? A a a…. Color??? What does that mean y’all? I don’t get it, I’m sorry. None of this makes any sense, and I was really excited to learn about this but now I’m just confused and sad 😞
