About Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy
Internal Family Systems is an evidence-based model of therapy, developed by Richard Schwartz. IFS is non-pathologizing and empowers the client to become Self-led and (for those of faith), Spirit-led. So often we are hijacked by aspects of ourselves in an attempt to protect or numb us from pain. This model helps clients get to the root wounded parts and help them heal.
About IFS Group Supervision
In either the IFS Introductory or IFS Advanced group supervision, we will use didactic teaching, experiential exercises, meditation, demonstrations and practice or role-play. Working in a group can prove to be a powerful learning experience. The beauty of working with a consistent group to learn the model is the ability to learn more about your parts in the context of your story. This deepens both your clinical learning and personal development. We are the tool of therapy and this time of self-reflection can be invaluable.
Introductory IFS Groups
This group is for those relatively new to the models of IFS and experiential therapy. You may have read about IFS, had an IFS therapist or even attended the IFS Institute’s Level I training, but would like to deepen your understanding of the approach.
Advanced IFS Groups
This group is for clinicians who have attended the IFS Institute’s Level I and possibly Level II training and who have experience using the model with clients. You may want to deepen your work with IFS and journey with others applying this model of therapy. This group will be helpful in applying IFS and experiential therapy with difficult cases, populations, or presenting issues. We will also include applications to a variety of systems (couples and families).
Logistics
Our IFS groups are no larger than six individuals, committed for six months or more at a time. The group consists of presentation of cases, information of different aspects of the models or application to specific populations. We will include role play and other experiential methods. The learning may include looking at your own parts that may come in to play when working with clients. We desire to tailor the experience to meet your needs as much as possible.
Location: 1432 East 7th Street Charlotte, NC 28204 (or virtual) – this group will be a mix of both
Monthly for Six Months: Two hours, Fridays – beginning May 2021
