Ever wonder why part of you craves change while another part holds you back? Or why self-compassion feels so hard, even when you “know better”? 🌱

Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy helps you explore these inner dynamics with curiosity, not judgment. By getting to know your parts, you can move from conflict to connection—and create space for healing.

Ever feel like you're fighting with yourself?
Like part of you is ready to grow… but something else holds you back?

IFS (Internal Family Systems) therapy offers a different approach. Instead of pushing those parts away, we get curious about them. Why are they showing up? What are they protecting? What do they need?

At Root to Rise, our IFS-trained therapists help you move from internal tug-of-war to inner harmony, one gentle step at a time.

IFS therapy teaches us that even the parts of ourselves we judge most harshly are trying to help us in some way. By listening with curiosity and compassion, we can move from inner conflict to inner harmony. 💛

🌿 Want to explore IFS therapy? Lauren David, AMFT recently wrote a wonderful blog on what IFS therapy is, who it's for, and when to seek it.

Today is a new day. A fresh start. A brand new week.

You don’t have to carry yesterday with you. You can choose to begin again with gentleness, with intention, and without needing to have it all figured out.

Whether you're resetting your mindset, revisiting a goal, or simply pausing to breathe… starting fresh is always an option. 💛

Sometimes we enter relationships with our internal “metal detectors” set on high alert. Primed to scan for signs of rejection, disconnection, or hurt.

While these filters are designed to protect us, they can also lead to misreading signals or creating false alarms.

💡 What to try: Slow down, reflect on what your detector is tuned to find, and open the door for new interpretations.

In Jessica's recent blog post Error in Relationships: Why We Misread Each Other, she goes into detail on this.

Wishing you a safe, joyful, and restful Fourth of July!

However you’re spending the day — with friends, family, fireworks, or quiet reflection — we hope you find a moment to pause, breathe, and care for yourself.

💙 Here’s to freedom, connection, and the small moments that make us feel grounded.

I know summer can feel like it should be a vacation — but sometimes it’s just chaos. The kids are home, the events are constant, and while it’s all fun, it can also be exhausting. 🌞

✨ This is your gentle reminder: it’s okay to pause and carve out time just for you. Your well-being matters, too.

💬 Share this with a friend who needs the reminder — and save it for yourself on the days it’s hardest to slow down.

Trauma work takes courage and care. If you’re in the middle of EMDR and feeling tender, here are a few things that can help:

1️⃣ Use your grounding tools
2️⃣ Notice changes with kindness (yes, even the weird dreams)
3️⃣ Stay connected with your therapist

You don’t have to push through or do this alone. Healing takes time, support, and self-compassion.

If you’re doing EMDR therapy and feel more emotional, unsettled, or “off” you’re not doing it wrong. You’re healing.

In trauma therapy, discomfort can sometimes be part of the process.
✨ You’re accessing emotions your body has stored
✨ You’re releasing defenses that once protected you
✨ You’re learning a new way of being

It can feel unfamiliar, even messy. But that mess is often movement and movement means something meaningful is shifting.

We’ve all done it. Put on a smile, said “I’m fine,” and kept moving… even when we weren’t.

But constantly faking happiness can take a toll. Suppressed emotions don’t disappear, they just find other ways to show up.

Sadness isn’t weakness. It’s not something to fix. It’s a signal that something mattered and it deserves your attention.

Sometimes, the kindest thing you can do for yourself is let go of the pressure to stay positive.

It’s okay to not be okay.
It’s okay to feel sadness without fixing it.
It’s okay to be real—with yourself and with others.

Suppressing our emotions may feel easier in the moment, but over time it can lead to disconnection, burnout, and emotional fatigue.
You deserve a space where you don’t have to pretend.
