IFS for Therapists #6 Working with Protectors

So helpful this morning as I acknowledge my IFS helper part and I have other manager parts sending messages that I need to do better/more with IFS

This is wonderful! I keep wondering though - what happens when managers refuse to step away?

OK, so I was not ready for the little girl at the end. 🥺 that was powerful. These videos are really great. 👌

Just listening to this one over and over! Thank you for this!

Nothing? Compassion can be overwhelmed by nothing at all ever? A part of me wonders... Even so, thank you.

Thank you this was very helpful

This thing about the "figure out part" is so true. In many therapies it's just the therapist's and client's analyzing parts that talk to each other and guessing. Or forcing explanations on the client in worst case. I think this is one of the main benefits of IFS to be so clear about this trap! Also, I love your videos! I'm stopping almost every minute to take notes. :)

The little girl berating herself at the end of the video was heart breaking. No wonder so many adults have issues that dog them for decades.

Derek’s quote about compassion went straight to my FB page 🙂 Thank You!

This is a very helpful series to understand IFS in a better way! Thank you!

Thank you for this. It resonates. It is helpful.

I loved gaining your insight into my truth....Thank you ! I'm finding my "Parts" and finally giving them the compassion they wanted so badly, so long ago. It's so amazing to discover your own beauty.! I'm learning to love every "Part" of who I am.. Just as God intend...Amen !!

These videos are so very helpful.   Thanks so much!

Derek and Joanna thanks so very much for these videos; the thought and detail in these are so very valuable!! So generous of you !
