  • richard schwartz: website. he's written a ton of books as well & has an audiobook with parts work meditations (if that's up your alley). if you search for him on youtube, a gajillion videos come up. really good stuff. if you decide to purchase any of his books, make sure to compare prices with what's in the store on his website; often the ones on his site are cheaper than amazon & other places (even used versions).
  • derek scott: youtube, website. if you google "derek scott IFS PDF" you can find some handouts/condensed explanations&explanations of parts work.
  • since you're wanting to use art/drawing to further explore your system, you might really like lisa spiegel's IFS therapy with children & michelle glass's daily parts meditation.
  • i've also found bonnie weiss's IFS workbook helpful in teaching me how to approach my parts (even the "difficult" ones!) with compassion & curiosity.
  • this worksheet (zen & internal family systems: working with parts) is a really nice resource, too.
  • matt licata (i refer to his facebook posts when i'm having trouble accessing Self/feeling really blended with various parts)
  • there are also two groups on facebook (i don't post, just read, & still get a lot from them): IFS community group (is a mix of therapists & non-therapists; derek scott sometimes participates there) & IFS daily reflections.

    i hope that list isn't overwhelming. internal family systems/parts work has been so so so beneficial to me as i work on my own growth/recovery, so i've done a lot of reading to try to absorb as much as i can. i hope that as you learn more about your parts & how to interact with each of them that the self-compassion & tenderness you've expressed here will just grow & grow & become second nature/as automatic as breathing, & that you will heal more & more deeply. ๐Ÿ’š
