IFS therapy sessions help individuals understand their behaviours, thoughts, and feelings in a compassionate and empowering way, fostering inner and outer connectedness. With IFS, clients can explore personal triggers and improve relationships and psychological well-being through the 8 C's: confidence, calm, compassion, courage, clarity, creativity, curiosity, and connectedness.
