We often feel pulled in multiple directions by our internal dialogue. When making a decision or addressing a challenging situation, one part of us may be scared, another motivated, and the discussion within us becomes confusing and, at times, overwhelming. For example, before an important job interview, there’s excitement at the prospect of a new opportunity. At the same time, there may be fear of failure, motivation to prove oneself, and anxiety provoked by the evaluation setting.
AS PARTES DENTRO DE NÓS
SISTEMAS FAMILIARES INTERNOS therapy (IFS) acknowledges that this cacophonous internal dialogue emerges from inner figures there from birth who have developed beliefs based on life experiences over time. One figure may be the voice telling us that we are too much, another may be scared of opening up to others, and yet another may encourage us to take risks.
Difficulties arise when some inner parts have mistaken, negative beliefs acquired in our early years due to trauma or excessive criticism. Although these beliefs may have been beneficial or even necessary at specific points in our lives, they may be harming us by motivating unwanted behaviors in our current life.
