Parts Cards - Integrating Art Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Both art therapy and internal family systems are incredibly potent methods for exploring your inner landscape, learning about yourself at new depths, and integrating your experiences, traumas, memories, and wounds for powerful healing.
The directive I have come to call “Parts Cards” is my blend of Art Therapy and Internal Family Systems that guides you to explore the many different parts of yourself through creative expression and reflection. It includes creating an artistic representation of a Part of yourself, and engaging in a writing process to add depth and further insight to the creation. By combining personal insight, artistic expression, and creative writing, you will bring yourself into more profound knowledge of the Parts of yourself that may be keeping you stuck, holding you back, or maintaining your wounds. When you bring these Parts into the light of your curiosity for introspection and reflection, you can unburden them and integrate their gifts so that they no longer flood you with the energy of the pain, trauma, and wounding they carry.
For a deeper dive into how to create Parts Cards, and a glimpse into my creative process as I created a deck of my own Parts Cards, check out my YouTube videos below:
