By exploring these different parts or characters, individuals can better understand their inner dynamics and how such parts influence one's way of perceiving and engaging with the world. Through IFS work, people can experience improved self-awareness, enhanced emotional regulation, and the ability foster deeper levels of compassion for themselves and for others.
Decolonial therapy
TO SUPPORT YOUR HUMANITY
Decolonial therapy explores and directs healing towards the harmful social programming society has forced onto us related to our perception of power, privilege, oppression, and marginalization based on the social constructs of identity and their socialized associations. Through decolonial therapy, we apply intersectional frameworks to explore our social identities and how we benefit from and are harmed by them due to institutional reinforcement and work to renegotiate and heal our own internalized beliefs, narratives, and perceptions around ourselves and others to create a greater sense of equitable liberation and sovereignty for ourselves and our human and more than human kin.
