A Real IFS Session- and I am the Client

27 minutes

This might be my most vulnerable episode of Dear Gabby yet. I had SO much to cover with my guest, Dr. Richard (“Dick)” Schwartz, founder of Internal Family Systems therapy (and my hero!), that we kept rolling after our Big Talk episode, and ended up demoing a real, on-air session of Internal Family Systems therapy. And I’m the client! Don’t miss this one!

Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, is the creator of Internal Family Systems therapy, a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic model that de-pathologizes the multi-part personality. His IFS Institute offers training for professionals and the general public. He is currently on the faculty of Harvard Medical School, and has published five books, including No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model. Dick lives with his wife, Jeanne, near Chicago, close to his three daughters and his growing number of grandchildren.
