Find a Parts Work Therapist

Browse therapists who specialize in parts work. Watch their intro videos to find the right fit before booking.

Parts work is a therapeutic approach that recognizes we all have different aspects or "parts" of ourselves that influence how we think, feel, and behave. These parts often developed to protect us, but sometimes their strategies can become problematic. Parts work helps you understand, communicate with, and integrate these different aspects of yourself to achieve greater inner harmony.

On First Session, you can browse therapists who offer parts work and watch their intro videos to get a sense of their approach. All therapists have their credentials verified during onboarding. Whether you prefer online or in-person sessions, you can book directly or request a free consultation to find the right match.

What is parts work?

Parts work is a therapeutic approach that views the mind as naturally made up of different sub-personalities or parts. Each part has its own perspective, feelings, and motivations. Parts work helps you develop awareness of these different aspects of yourself, understand their roles, and foster internal cooperation. Various therapeutic modalities incorporate parts work, including Internal Family Systems (IFS) and ego state therapy.

How can parts work help?

Many people find parts work helpful for understanding internal conflicts, healing from trauma, managing anxiety and depression, and developing self-compassion. It can support you in recognizing why you sometimes feel pulled in different directions and in developing a more harmonious relationship with all aspects of yourself. Parts work is particularly useful for patterns that feel confusing or contradictory.

What happens in a parts work session?

In parts work sessions, your therapist will guide you in turning your attention inward to notice and connect with different parts of yourself. You might explore what each part is trying to protect you from, understand its history, and help it update its strategies. The goal is to build internal trust and cooperation, led by your core Self or center of awareness.

How do I find a parts work therapist?

On First Session, you can filter by specialty to find therapists who offer parts work. Each therapist has a profile with an intro video so you can get a sense of their approach. You can book a session directly online or request a free consultation first. All therapists on the platform have their credentials verified during onboarding.

Is parts work right for me?

Parts work may be a good fit if you notice internal conflicts, hear different "voices" in your head with opposing opinions, or want to understand patterns that don't make sense to you. It's helpful for those interested in a compassionate, curious approach to self-understanding. Consider booking a consultation with a therapist to discuss whether parts work resonates with you.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple. Browse parts work therapists on First Session and watch their intro videos to find someone whose approach resonates with you. Once you've found a match, you can book your first session directly online. Many therapists offer a free 15-minute consultation if you'd like to connect first.
