About Me

My photo
I am a pastor and a clinical psychotherapist. My life's passion is defining healthiness from a human perspective and paralleling it to the holiness of God, divine perspective. Shifting perspectives creates a paradigm that is alongside of rather than over and against. The parakalein of God and the paradoxes of humanity are redefined. Humanity is all about winning and yet we are losing ground everywhere. Divinity is all about letting go of the desire to win and the fear of loss. The Divine embraces the world with loving care regardless of anything.

The A's of IFS

Posted by Don Paine

Ok, A comes before B so here are the A's of IFS.

I just returned from an intensive week of Internal Family Systems, a model of psychotherapy and a way of inviting peace and love into all relationships both internal and external.  It was an amazing week of emotional healing and spiritual growth.  Here is the A's of IFS.

Acceptance of welcoming of all parts
Affirmation of witnessing of all parts
Appreciation for wonder of all parts

all from the heart to the heart as that is what matters!
