Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy

Virtual & In-Person Somatic, Trauma-Informed Counselling in Comox Valley, BC

Meet All the Parts of You with Care

You’ve done the work, gone to sessions, and tried the exercises, but some parts of yourself still feel stuck, conflicted, or heavy. Maybe you feel anxious one moment, shut down the next, and then critical of yourself when you can’t seem to get it right. IFS therapy at B-rooted helps you meet these inner parts with curiosity and care, instead of frustration or judgment.

Inside each of us are different parts. Some protect you by staying alert, some push you to avoid pain, and some criticize in an attempt to keep you safe. IFS helps you understand these parts, why they developed, and what they are trying to do for you. When you treat them with kindness, your body and mind start to feel safer, lighter, and more connected to yourself.

You notice parts of yourself that judge, avoid, or get stuck in old habits

Trauma or childhood experiences still affect how you respond to yourself and others

You want to feel kinder and more patient with yourself

Even after therapy, some feelings or patterns still feel out of control

What IFS Feels Like

IFS therapy is about listening to your inner world and noticing the different parts of yourself in a safe, supported way. You might notice a part that worries constantly, a part that shuts down to protect you, or a part that criticizes you for not doing enough. Together, we explore what each part is trying to do for you and help them feel heard instead of ignored. You also reconnect with your core Self, the part of you that is calm, compassionate, and wise, which can guide and soothe all the other parts. Through this process, the tension and conflict inside start to ease, and you begin to feel steadier, lighter, and more at peace with yourself.

A Calmer Inner World

You notice the parts that trigger tension or anxiety and learn how to respond instead of reacting. Over time, your body and mind feel more settled.

Kindness Toward Yourself

Instead of criticizing yourself for feeling anxious, stuck, or overwhelmed, you start responding with understanding and patience.

Clarity About Your Patterns

You begin to see why certain thoughts, behaviors, or emotional reactions show up. This makes it easier to make choices that feel authentic and freeing.

Stronger, Healthier Connections

When you relate to yourself with care, you naturally relate to others with more presence, patience, and calm.

A Life That Feels Whole

IFS therapy helps you stop fighting against yourself and start living from a place of understanding and connection. You feel more grounded, present, and at home in your own skin.
