Going Inside: Healing Trauma from the Inside Out
Real IFS Therapy Session with "Cece" - Internal Family Systems Demo
In this episode of Going Inside: Healing Trauma From the Inside Out, I guide my client “Cece,” a breathwork facilitator, through a live Internal Family Systems therapy session. Together, we explore her feelings of helplessness, a maternal-like protective part, and the connections between them. Cece’s courage and self-awareness bring valuable insights into her journey of healing and self-compassion.
Key Takeaways:
- Cece identifies a helpless part tied to childhood trauma, visualized as a young girl who had been confined to a bathroom.
- A maternal-like protector emerges, expressing doubt about Cece’s ability to care for her inner child, reflecting internalized self-criticism.
- Through compassion and reassurance, Cece builds trust with her younger self, allowing for freedom, joy, and a deeper sense of connection.
