IFS Drop Ins - open community circles - are based on Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy… but with extra community. They are gatherings where we come together to explore our inner parts, normalise our multiplicity and help facilitate inner harmony.

Why do IFS in groups? Group work helps normalise parts as we witness others speaking for their parts and it’s fertile group for immediate access to the parts in us that get triggered by others in a group setting! Simply its so wonderful being in community with shared Self energy, it can be a hugely powerful tool for self-discovery, inner system harmony and connection with others who are on a similar journey. It combines the insights of IFS with the collective wisdom and support of the group. It can complement individual therapy, and many people find it helps them in ways they might not achieve through one-on-one sessions alone.

The sessions generally follow this format:

There is a check in, a few words of where we each are… then some ‘housekeeping’, followed by:

a) A guided meditation related to our topic of the month. In 2026 we are navigating relationships through the lens of Internal Family Systems and the couples version: IFIO - with extra added polyvagal theory and Relational Life Therapy..

b) Parts mapping exercise and processing/discussion Either from the guided meditation, or where-ever your curiosity is at the time.. we use paper/workbooks and pastels/pens and pencils to identify, understand, and organise the various "parts" or subpersonalities within us, paying attention to the relationship between our Self and our parts, and also how they interact with each other and with our core essence, our Self.

c) Depending on what we feel like then - talking about our parts, what we’ve been working on, our creative parts map or a sculpt (which is an external representation of a participants system)

Closing going round and everyone saying a word or two if that’s feels ok to them!
