Hi Linda, thank you for your comment. I’m not a therapist or someone with any kind of professional mental health training, so I’m not an expert on the best therapeutic models. One therapist I know uses Internal Family Systems and recommended “Introduction to the Internal Family Systems Model,” by Richard Shapiro as a place to start. Some of the language reminds me of Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families, if you’re familiar with that (www.adultchildren.org). Hope this helps!

Any particular therapy? Having difficulty getting out from under all my stories as if drowning in my grief for what I’ve lost and haven’t lived. It’s not cathartic at this point. May try NARM as dbt and cbt not really helping at this point. Ty again.

What I only saw as a molehill, my therapist has described as mountains. Resilient, adaptable, and seeing the world through hearts and rainbows also traits honed to a razor’s edge with decades of training at the hands of others. I have done work with IFS and one of my protectors I named, “Under the Radar Man”. Keep up your work and reaching out and helping others. All the best.
