How does Internal Family Systems (IFS) help individuals address CPTSD?

The resolution of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) through Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy offers a compelling approach to healing by addressing the fragmented internal experiences that often accompany trauma. Tanner Wallace, in his CPTSD Medicine podcast, highlights the transformative power of IFS in helping individuals unburden and understand different parts of themselves, leading to a more integrated perception of their trauma. With a background in working with clients who have experienced significant trauma, Tanner has seen firsthand the profound changes IFS can facilitate. However, she acknowledges that while IFS provides a strong foundation, it may not fully address all aspects of CPTSD, advocating for a combination of IFS with other holistic methods to ensure comprehensive healing and transformation.

- Parts Work Practice involves turning inward to notice different thoughts, sensations, and energies, expanding consciousness to understand how CPTSD uniquely shapes the internal system.

Quotes:

“IFS is necessary for CPTSD Resolution, but not sufficient as taught in mainstream training spaces.” — Tanner [04:55]

“In many ways, as I understand IFS, we’re storytelling with neural networks. We’re listening to voices, feeling sensations, reviewing memories, feeling behavioral urges; the senses that are hard to put into words, and we’re understanding them as really important sources of data, wisdom—Sacred Wisdom—as to the blueprint of our wounding and the consequences of a traumatizing childhood.” — Tanner [11:08]

“If I know the root cause of something; I know the problem to something, I can create a solution because I know the problem. When I don’t even know the problem, how am I going to know the solution?” — Tanner [17:46]

“CPTSD Medicine teaches Energetic Stewardship so that Self Energy can be purified as well as amplified.” — Tanner [25:10]
