Building confidence as a Program Assistant

Being a <b>Program Assistant</b>

Being a Program Assistant

This workshop is designed to provide the needed skills and structure for the challenges of being a Program Assistant (PA). As a participant, you will be guided in practice by senior PA’s, so you can work your edges, and you will return to the job of PA with more self-energy on board.

The Level 1 experience exposes us to concepts that are easy to learn but require practice and experience to become skillful.

The PA experience requires handling challenges that come up in the learning process. These skills come from working with our parts, modeling speaking for our parts and giving self-led feedback.

 Most <b>needed</b> skills

Most needed skills

Lead Trainers teach the model through didactic and experiential exercises, but the true front engine of the skill development for the participant happens in the practice and home groups run by Program Assistants.

Participant’s parts don’t like being interrupted. It is hard for someone who has mastery to return to a beginner's mind and to practice working differently. Tension from being interrupted in practice and conflict in home groups is not uncommon.

Speaking for parts and doing a “U-turn” are the skills most needed and PA’s need to have confidence in creating the structure for these skills to be learned and practiced.

Time to practice

Time to practice

Staff meetings at lunch and end of the day are places for PA’s to work with their parts and also get suggestions for challenging situations – and there is not adequate time to prepare PA’s so they can lead with enough self-energy.

This workshop will focus on distinct discussion and practice so that you can work with yourself and your parts to a clearer understanding of the role and more awareness of your own system.

    Meet the trainer

    Rina Dubin

    Rina Dubin, Ed.D, LPC, is a certified IFS therapist and IFS Lead Trainer in private practice in Newton, MA.

    Her involvement with the IFS community began in 2004, and loves being part of the healing process which has allowed IFS to become a centerpiece in her work.

    She has been affiliated with Internal Family Systems of New England (IFSNE) since its beginning in 2009 (until 2018), and as a member of the steering committee, she has been thrilled with the accelerating growth of IFS in the greater New England area.

    Rina has a broad background in trauma, and offers supervision and consultation.

    Dr. Diana Paulk

    I have known Rina Dubin as an IFS supervisor and as an IFS Lead Trainer when I was a Program Assistant. As an IFS supervisor, Rina has helped to broaden my knowledge of how to implement IFS in ways that advance the understanding of clients’ parts as well as my own parts. As a Lead Trainer in IFS, Rina’s IFS wisdom seems limitless and her enthusiasm for the IFS approach to therapy is contagious. She is especially skilled in teaching the application of IFS to Program Assistants and does so with compassion for the challenges that are innate to IFS training. Rina is adept at working with the interplay of parts of trainers, program assistants, and IFS training participants. As such, she is the ideal person to prepare individuals to become successful Program Assistants. I recommend any training opportunity provided by Rina Dubin without hesitation.

    Natalie Y. Gutiérrez, LMFT

    I have immensely appreciated my time working with Rina! I’ve seen Rina be a gifted thought-leader in IFS and advocate, and I’ve seen her put so much heart into her teaching. She’s been such a big part of my own learning and growth with her honest and warm-hearted feedback and wisdom. She genuinely cares and wants both students and PAs to feel supported. Rina also continues to include the impact of systems of racism and oppression in her lessons, which is vital for wholesome learning. I highly recommend Rina’s craft and workshops!

    Natalie Y. Gutiérrez, LMFT
    Mike Elkin, Senior IFS Trainer

    Rina Dubin is a gift to lovers of IFS. She is one of the clearest and most precise teachers of the model.

    Getting certified?
    With this series there are 12 IFS CEs available to be applied for
    IFS certification for those who have completed IFS Level 1 training.


    A detailed description of experiential activities:

    Please note that the teacher will respond to the needs of the group and because of that, the chosen activities may change

    • Practice groups with senior PA's guidance

      During practice groups, we will recreate a setting similar to an IFS Level 1 training practice group, thanks to which you will be able to practice your PA skills under the eye of a Senior PA. You will be able to coach a participant in the role of therapist - just like during IFS Level 1 Training. Each practice group will have its own Senior PA available at all times.

    • Sharing and discussions in small groups (usually triads)

      We usually do it after guided meditation and/or after personal practice. We go to breakout rooms and meet in small groups (3 or 4 participants) to share our experiences in a safe space. It is a great opportunity to meet new people and deepen the feeling of connection. This activity is optional - you can stay in the main room.

    • Guided meditations

      Guided meditation is an internal practice that you do with closed eyes, following the teacher's voice. The teacher will invite you to sit back, relax, and focus on your inner world. You will meet your parts, talk to them, and often learn things you weren't aware of before. Guided meditation can allow you to do a significant piece of inner work.

    • Mini-demo sessions

      Mini-demos are short, role played demonstrations during which you will watch an IFS session in action. The sessions will include topics discussed during the workshop. All mini-demos will be led by Lead Trainer Rina Dubin, and role played (as clients) by the Senior PAs.
