"My First Year with IFS Informed Therapy is an easy, engaging read that gives a peek into the IFS therapy process in a way that academic writings fail to do. Part of its charm lies in its unique structure, where each vignette is viewed from both the client and therapist perspective. Lister is an experienced writer, who knows how to narrate through a series of meaning-rich moments, rather than long expositions. His personal story brings to life many universal aspects of the self-discovery and healing process." --Tori Olds, Ph.D., Psychologist, Founder of Deep Eddy Psychotherapy
