Building a house on unstable ground- love how you put that!

Super interesting! Is this in some way similar to Internal Family Systems?

Not really, IFS is a different approach, but they're similar in the sense they both work with the vulnerable parts of us (inner child in Primal) and the "protectors" are the different adaptations we've created to navigate our childhood and now adult life.

Not really similar to IFS. In primal we look at adaptive strategies (but not naming them as parts) and in Primal we look at primarily your relationship and impact from your parents.
