FWIW, I have a close relation that matches the pattern you’re identifying, and they have had very positive results from Internal Family Systems Therapy.

+1: this comment describes me and I'm actively in internal family systems therapy. took me a while to get used to the style, but it's been beneficial for me.

I've actually been researching Internal Family Systems! There are some things that make me a bit wary about it, but I think it may be worth trying.
