###### The Goals of Internal Family Systems [[⭐️ Internal Family Systems]] is not about managing [[Symptoms of Unresolved Trauma|symptoms]] or becoming "functional enough." Ultimately it teaches us to become our own therapist. [[🔑 Recovery is non-linear and cyclical]], and [[🔑 Progress accumulates]]. These aren't one-and-done goals, we revisit them again and again, learning something new each time. 1. [[🔑 Learn to differentiate between parts and Self and to unblend]] 2. [[🔑 Restore Parts' trust in Self and in Self-Leadership]] 3. [[🔑 Liberate Parts from the roles they’ve been forced into, so they can be who they’re meant to be]] 4. [[🔑 Decrease the reactivity of and re-harmonize the inner system, so that we can respond rather than react]] 5. [[🔑 Become more Self-led in our interactions with the world]] These goals are achieved through [[💡 The IFS Process]].
