Parts Work Theory Invented by Richard Schwartz

In this course, I'll explain to you the Internal Family Systems Therapy created by Richard Schwartz. It's a psychotherapeutic modality that assumes that we all have "Parts". Parts are explained as emotions and behavioral mechanisms that we use on a regular basis. They are usually causing dysfunctional patterns of behaviors that we want to change. With the help of this modality, you can help your clients, patients, and yourself to recognize where those patterns came from and what you need to do to change them to healthy mechanisms. It's a type of a inner child work that can be compared to Schema Therapy in some ways. You use structured questions that you ask your Parts to be able to get to know them, appreciate them for their good intentions and ultimately take over for them and create new functional behavioral patterns. It's an amazing therapy that you can practice on yourself and use in daily life to create good habits, and appropriate boundaries,  promote healthy self-esteem, and practice self-compassion. Your Parts think they need to keep working for you, but with Internal Family Systems Therapy you can make them realize that they don't have to be active anymore because you are the "Functional Adult" now taking over for them. I'll provide you with my personal take on this therapy and with some advice when it comes to the use of this modality. It's my main modality that I use with clients, even though I have studied multiple common therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Schema Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, and Art Therapy. Internal Family Systems Therapy is by far the most successful for treating my clients and to use on myself to deal with emotions and difficult situations.
