An Introduction to Parts Work
The foundation of my coaching practice is an incredibly supportive method for growing self-compassion and getting to know ourselves more deeply. If you’ve ever said, “Part of me wants to, but another part just doesn’t”? That little phrase points to something at the heart of what’s called Parts Work. I’ve written a piece to introduce you to this simple yet powerful way of understanding yourself by getting to know the different “parts” inside you. Inspired by Internal Family Systems (IFS), this approach helps you listen to your inner world with curiosity, compassion, and Presence. It’s not about fixing or improving yourself—it’s about building relationships with every part of you.
Following The Thread of Our Core Needs
What really drives our actions, reactions, and relationships? Beneath every conversation, conflict, or collaboration lies a set of core needs influencing how we show up in the world. When we begin to recognize and understand them—both in ourselves and others—we unlock new possibilities for connection, clarity, and growth. Curious to explore what’s beneath the surface?
Befriending Your Inner Critic
If you are facing self-doubt, perfectionism, or procrastination, your inner critic may be active—but what happens if you learn to befriend it?
It’s possible to transform our relationship with our inner critic. By approaching it with curiosity and compassion, we can uncover its positive intentions and move toward deeper self-acceptance.
