This workshop will introduce you to Internal Family Systems, a leading, powerful, and transformative evidenced based model of psychotherapy that has been rated effective for improving general functioning and wellbeing. IFS is considered promising for improving phobia, panic, GAD symptoms, physical health conditions, and depressive symptoms. IFS assumes we have subpersonalities (or parts) and that is a good thing. Whether these parts of you present as anxious, fearful, angry, ambivalent, etc., the IFS model believes that “All parts are welcome” and really are working to protect you in the best way they know how. Not only are all parts welcomed, but IFS helps you to discover your natural capacity for curiosity, compassion, and calm towards these parts of your personality that react, thus helping you to increase balance and harmony in your internal system.

At the conclusion of this conference, participants will be able to:

  1. Describe the assumptions and goals of the IFS Model.
  2. Identify and demonstrate how to work therapeutically with the clinician’s own parts.
  3. Describe three types of parts and their characteristics.
  4. Identify qualities of self and self leadership.
  5. Summarize ways to integrate IFS concepts and techniqes into their clinical practice.
