If you have graduated from an IFS Institute Level 1 Training and are applying for IFS certification, this course fulfills 15 IFS hours toward the IFS Continuing Education requirement

Module 1: Find, Focus, and Flesh it out.

We’re going to be looking at the differences between phase-oriented treatment and IFS.

We’re going to be looking at the neuroscience of parts and we’re going to talk about what is specific and relevant to IFS in regards to the treatment of trauma.

Module 2: Self-energy and the Neurobiology of Trauma and Dissociation.  

We’re going to be looking at self energy.

We’re going to be talking about the importance of therapist parts.

We’re going to be looking at the difference between empathy and compassion.

For me, as a physician, it’s really important to know the basics so then it can really build on that information so that we can really see where IFS and neuroscience overlaps and interplays with each other.

Module Three: Befriending, Finding out the Fear and Working with Extreme Parts.

It’s one of the things in doing this trauma work for many, many years, extreme parts are really complicated.

It makes the trauma work really hard, clients tend to get frustrated, and then they tend to not follow through.

None of the work leads to unburdening, and then they get frustrated and they go back to their old modalities and way of working because they just get frustrated around extreme parts.

Learn how to work with extreme parts in a way that will help you get over those humps.

Module Four: The Unburdening Process.

“Why don’t people do enough unburdenings?

“What’s so complicated about that?”
