Queering Internal Family Systems (IFS) Podcast

A conversation between two queer, neurodivergent IFS therapists who wanted to talk about the things that don't always make it into the training room.

Hosted by Jude Carn and Alessio Rizzo, Queering IFS explores what happens when you bring a queer and neurodivergent lens to Internal Family Systems therapy. Each episode is a genuine conversation: about identity, parts, self-energy, shame, joy, nature, and the places where the model needs to stretch a little further.

Whether you're an IFS therapist, in IFS therapy yourself, or just curious about what it means to do this work in a body and a life like yours, you're welcome here.

New episodes drop fortnightly. Find us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
