Richard C. Schwartz is a systems family therapist, academic, author, and creator of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) branch of therapy. He developed his foundational work with IFS in the 1980s after noticing that his clients were made up of many different "parts" and a core "Self." He teaches that, "Our inner parts contain valuable qualities and our core Self knows how to heal, allowing us to become integrated and whole. In IFS all parts are welcome."
Schwartz earned his Ph.D. in marriage and family therapy and has taught at several institutions, including the Institute for Juvenile Research at the University of Illinois at Chicago and Northwestern University as well as Harvard Medical School. He is also the founder of the Center for Self Leadership, now known as the IFS Institute and has published many books and over 50 articles about IFS.
