Cece Sykes on IFS, Addiction & The Power of Choice
Manage episode 518749441 series 3552009
In this episode of Going Inside, John Clarke sits down with the legendary Cece Sykes, IFS trainer, therapist, and pioneer in the field of addiction recovery, for a rich, open-ended conversation about the complex dance between trauma, addictive processes, and the healing power of choice.
Together, they break down a real client demo, the challenges therapists face when healing feels urgent, and how the IFS model bridges the gap between trauma treatment and addiction recovery.
3 Key Takeaways
- What if your inner critic isn’t you — but your parent’s energy?
- When speed becomes a symptom, not a solution.
- The 9th “C” of Self you’ve never heard of (but really need).
