Review

Jay Earley has found a creative way to translate the Internal Family Systems Model, developed by Richard Schwartz PhD, and make it readable and accessible to therapists and lay people alike. This book is written in a way which allows the reader to understand the basics of the model and apply them personally. Dr Earley's books are a wonderful introduction to the world of Parts and Self. -- Toni Herbine-Blank MSN, Senior IFS trainer and author of Intimacy from the Inside Out, Courage and Compassion in Couple Therapy
