DR. MINDY PELZ
About this episode

Gabby Bernstein introduces how to use Internal Family Systems (IFS) as an effective tool during mid-life and menopause. Gabby explains IFS as a therapeutic model that identifies and befriends "protector parts" that emerged from childhood traumas. She describes a four-step process: choosing to check in, becoming curious, compassionately connecting, and checking for self qualities. This episode is for anyone who is ready to engage in meaningful self-exploration and transformation.
