      <image:caption>The “hardware-software” analogy helps understand the body (hardware) and parts/self (software) in IFS. The Self, as pure energy, is distinct from the embodied Self, which is impacted by neurodiversity. Neurodiversity doesn’t equate to less access to self; societal barriers create limitations.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Considering Sensory Needs: Create a therapeutic environment that accommodates clients’ sensory sensitivities, addressing lighting, sound, and other potential distractions. Embrace Flexibility: Adapt to clients’ needs regarding punctuality and communication styles, recognizing that rigid scheduling might present barriers. Foster Open Communication: Encourage open dialogue about neurodiversity from the outset, normalising conversations around individual differences. Practice Adaptability: Remain flexible in your therapeutic approach, adjusting questions and techniques to suit individual client needs and preferences. Recognise the Broad Spectrum: Understand that neurodivergence encompasses a vast range of experiences, requiring individualised approaches rather than generalised interventions.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Queering IFS - Episode 9 - Queering the Social Model of Disability in IFS with Isabelle Vrod - Key Points</image:title>
      <image:caption>The social model of disability views disability as a societal construct, not an individual deficit. Physical and societal barriers create disability. The medical model focuses on individual deficits, requiring diagnosis and treatment to address limitations. Both models are deficit-based, but the social model emphasizes societal change for inclusion. Labels can be positive or negative, depending on individual and societal context. Cultural backgrounds significantly impact perceptions of disability and the effectiveness of both models. Internalised societal expectations create additional burdens for individuals navigating disability.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Episode 8 - Queering Shame in IFS - Are We Missing Anything Out? - Key Points</image:title>
      <image:caption>Shame is a socially constructed emotion; feeling something is wrong with you, not just what you did. Minority identities face unique shame dynamics due to societal expectations and norms. Internal shame often stems from protective parts upholding societal burdens. Queering shame involves challenging cultural burdens and embracing marginalised identities. Self-advocacy and anger can counter internalised shame.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Queering IFS - Episode 7 - Exploring the burden of gender binary with Anna Thomas (They / Them) - Key Points</image:title>
      <image:caption>This podcast episode discusses the impact of the gender binary on individuals, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community. The gender binary is described as a societal construct that negatively impacts everyone. The concept of “access fatigue” is introduced, illustrating the emotional and mental toll of navigating a world built on gender binaries. The speakers emphasise the importance of language in understanding and addressing gender identity issues, highlighting how a lack of appropriate terminology hinders self-discovery and expression. Participants discuss the need for cultural competency and awareness within the IFS therapeutic framework to effectively support diverse clients. The episode highlights the intertwined nature of gender identity and expression, and sexuality.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Queering IFS - Episode 6 - Queering the Self in IFS (Part 2): is the Self Queer? - Key Points</image:title>
      <image:caption>This podcast episode explores the complex intersection of Self, gender, and sexuality within the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. The speakers question whether “Self” can be considered queer, examining whether this identity resides within the Self or its parts. They highlight the influence of societal norms and the need to approach this topic without pathologising.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Queering IFS - Episode 5 - Queering sexuality in IFS - the P of passion with Ali Bushell - Key Points</image:title>
      <image:caption>Therapists should address clients’ sexual desires and experiences openly and without judgment. Avoid pathologizing healthy sexual expression. Unburdened sexual dynamics involve self-led connection, consent, and mutual pleasure, distinct from burdened experiences driven by insecurity or unmet needs. Creating safe and structured environments, like Ali’s sex parties, can facilitate healthy sexual exploration and connection. Clear rules and boundaries are crucial. Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy can help clients identify and process past trauma affecting their sexual lives. Therapists should avoid imposing their own moral judgments on clients’ sexual desires or experiences. Focus on client needs and experiences. Open dialogue about sexuality is crucial in therapy, addressing internalised homophobia and queer hatred.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Queering IFS - Episode 4 - Queering the Self in IFS: where to begin (Part 1) - Key Points</image:title>
      <image:caption>The self in IFS is complex and multifaceted, with no single definition. There is a continuum of self-energy; complete self-without-parts is unattainable. Parts often contain self-energy and can be valuable allies in healing. Avoid binary thinking (self vs. parts); see the interplay between them. Use a curious, questioning approach, avoiding premature conclusions. Consider the “map vs. terrain” analogy when assessing clients’ situations</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Queering IFS - Episode 3 - IFS and Pronouns - Why They Matter inside and Out - Key Points</image:title>
      <image:caption>Respect client and part pronouns in IFS work. Misgendering can be harmful. Explore your own relationship with gender and pronouns. This impacts your practice. Be curious about who is gendering who Recognise that not all systems engage with gender in the same way. Curiosity and checking in are crucial for avoiding misgendering and creating a safe space.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Couples and Relationships - Communication &amp; Conflict Resolution</image:title>
      <image:caption>Conflict resolution is key to the harmony of the relationship and to a good ending when partners decide to go their own ways. Effective communication leads to conflict resolution when each party can identify what they are going through (thoughts, reactions, needs, expectations, etc.), and can talk about themselves while being open to listening to the other. Couples spontaneously learn to understand each other and tolerate differences.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Mandala of Self in many languages</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first mandala I created was in English. It was published in one of my articles on the Self. English is the only language that I know of in which the qualities of Self start with a C or a P. Below you will find many more languages. I believe the power of these words is incredible regardless of the language. In the future, I hope to add more translations.</image:caption>

      <image:title>IFS Gender Journeys - What is Gender?</image:title>
      <image:caption>While biologically our bodies can seem to be divided into “male” and “female” (and we know that at a physical level this distinction is not clear), gender is a social construct. This means that the concepts of man, masculinity, boy, brotherhood, woman, femininity, girl, sisterhood, etc. are human creations that we have been surrounded by since before birth, and that influence many aspects of our life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Upcoming Events - IFS, Sexuality &amp; Gender - Trauma, Shame and Intersectionality</image:title>
      <image:caption>Friday 7th Nov 2pm-3.30pm UK time In this lecture, Alessio and Anna-Thomas present five frameworks to understand how trauma, shame and intersectionality impact LGBTQIA+ systems from an Internal Family Systems perspective. You will learn about major theoretical lenses used to understand how people with marginalised identities, like the ones that compose the LGBTQIA+ umbrella, are burdened by dominant culture. This results in constant higher levels of stress and shame within the system from a very young age. It is important, when working with LGBTQIA+ systems, to be aware of the specific difficulities and burdens that their system may carry and how they present in the therapy room.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Upcoming Events - IFS, Sexuality &amp; Gender - Disenfranchised Grief and Legacy Work</image:title>
      <image:caption>Friday 28th Nov 2pm-3.30pm UK time n this lecture, Alessio and Anna-Thomas present two key aspects of working clinically with LGBTQIA+ systems affected by trauma and burdens described in the previous lecture. You will learn about disenfranchised grief, how it impacts parts of LGBTQIA+ systems, and how to support the unburdening process with IFS. We will also explore the experiences of epistemic violence that is specific to LGBTQIA+ individuals. Additionally, we will give our unique view of legacy work and how specific attention needs to be given to minimise access fatigue experienced by LGBTQIA+ individuals, whose ancestors are likely to carry homophobic and genderphobic burdens.</image:caption>
