#therapy

So, how does somebody work on themself in a safe, supportive environment with some level of external guidance and supervision? Yup. That sounds a lot like therapy. And agents know what it means to go to therapy and work on themselves. They know what to expect and how to engage. The Therapist is implemented as a standalone subagent inside Sen.

The internal family systems model (IFS) is an integrative approach to individual psychotherapy developed by Richard C. Schwartz in the 1980s.[1][2] It combines systems thinking with the view that the mind is made up of relatively discrete subpersonalities, each with its own unique viewpoint and qualities. IFS uses systems psychology, particularly as developed for family therapy, to understand how these collections of subpersonalities are organized.[3] It has been criticised as being pseudoscientific, and some have claimed it induced dissociative identity disorder in some patients.[4]
