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.
