Resources on IFS and internal parts

A collection of Ocnos Psychology Clinic articles exploring Internal Family Systems (IFS), inner conflict, protective parts, self-criticism, feeling stuck and more respectful ways of understanding what happens inside us.

A place to connect articles about inner conflict

IFS may appear in articles about self-criticism, stuckness, shame, trauma, relationships or moments when different internal needs seem to pull in opposite directions.

Rather than repeating those explanations here, this category brings them together. Each article can therefore answer a specific question while the category keeps a simpler role: helping you navigate the growing collection.

The language of parts can provide an organised way of exploring internal experiences that sometimes feel contradictory.

If you want to take this into therapy

Articles can orientate you; therapy is adapted to your situation

Reading may help you put words to inner conflict. A session gives space to explore your history, your goals and which therapeutic approach makes sense for you, without assuming that everything needs to be explained through IFS.

Ocnos Psychology Clinic is based in Palmones and offers in-person and online psychological care when appropriate.
