Move Toward: A Simplified IFS Therapy Tool to Welcome All Parts of You

What if the things you don’t like about yourself aren’t character flaws—but parts of you doing their best to protect you?

The inner critic. Anxiety. People-pleasing. Anger. That wall you’ve built around your heart.

What if you stopped fighting against these parts of yourself and moved toward them instead?

In this relatable and refreshingly real guide, best-selling author and therapist Jenna Riemersma shows you how. Drawing on Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy—an approach rooted in the belief that all parts are welcome—Jenna introduces a clear, three-step process for better understanding yourself, your relationships, and the way you move in the world.

Filled with real-life stories, exercises, and reflection questions designed for journaling, therapy sessions, or small group exploration, Move Toward isn’t just a book—it’s a deeply therapeutic experience that invites all parts of yourself to the table, even the ones you don’t like.

(Turns out, they’ve been on your side all along.)
