Parts Work: a Path of the Heart: Healing Journeys Integrating IFS and Spirituality

This book describes the healing that can occur when IFS is integrated with the spiritual life of the person doing inner “Parts Work.” The transcripts of individual sessions illustrate this process and are accompanied by commentary about the process, both from the viewpoint of the therapist and from the client’s viewpoint. The idea that Parts Work as a “path of the heart” is explained and then illustrated through these accounts. It reveals that what IFS calls Self shares many qualities with what is described as “heart” in many spiritual traditions. It is my hope that these stories and comments will be of value to both psychotherapists and non-therapists interested in psychological healing and spiritual development. —- ISBN: 9780979889745 | ISBN10: 097988974X | ISBN-13: 978-0979889745
