IFS & <strong>Psychedelics</strong>

IFS & Psychedelics

The demand for both IFS therapy and psychedelic-assisted therapy has exploded in recent years. It doesn't come as a surprise - both modalities are powerful on their own. When combined, the potential for relieving human suffering is immense.

We believe that IFS therapy is a great fit with psychedelics and there are many reasons for that.

For starters, psychedelic-assisted therapy is still a new and growing field. All the information that can be found in books and courses is presented in the spirit of general guidelines and not as settled answers. Therapists and practitioners are in a need of a solid framework that will help them do this work.

IFS, with its concrete and step-by-step approach, can offer a map, that is very much needed during the twists and turns of the psychedelic experience.

Secondly, IFS therapy has already been recognized as a modality that is very much aligned with how the psychedelic experience reveals itself.

For example, IFS, along with the holotropic breathwork, are the main modalities that inform MAPS’ approach to MDMA-assisted psychotherapy for PTSD. Under the guidance of our guest speaker Michael Mithoefer, a psychiatry professor at the Medical University of South Carolina, MAPS therapists used the IFS model to support the patients in their journeys during the PTSD trials.

Finally, in IFS we follow the client's Self, which is the healing agent. In psychedelic therapy we follow the medicine and offer supportive therapy for this process. This basic attitude is at the core of both modalities and this is the reason they work together so well.

Questions & Answers with the guest speakers.


Meet the teacher

Robert Falconer

For the past decade or more Robert Falconer has devoted himself full-time to IFS work (Internal Family Systems Therapy). In that time he has attended all levels of IFS training offered, and has been a program assistant more than 18 times.

Bob has been at many workshops and events with Richard Schwartz both as assistant and participant. In addition to studying with many of the other senior IFS trainers, he also co-authored a book with Richard Schwartz entitled, Many Minds, One Self. For all of his therapeutic work, both professional and personal, Bob now uses IFS almost exclusively.

Before this Bob used and explored many forms of therapy, starting with Ericksonian hypnotherapy which he studied with Carol Erickson. He received his master’s degree and hypnotherapist certificate under her tutelage. Then he met and began studying with Jack and Helen Watkins, the creators of Ego State Therapy.

Before beginning his graduate work, starting in 1971, Bob was involved with the Esalen Institute where he has attended more than 120 events and workshops.

Derek P Scott

Bob Falconer is a scholar as well as a gifted and engaging teacher. His expertise in the field of unattached burdens is unmatched as he brings a vast theoretical and anthropological framework to the practical business of addressing these phenomenon in the therapeutic encounter.

Derek P Scott, Founder and CEO, IFSCA
Paul Ginter

I have had the good fortune of Bob Falconer serving as a program assistant in IFS trainings for many years. Bob’s deep understanding of the Model, along with his clear and wise teaching, have made him an invaluable presence. When it comes to unattached burdens, Bob is one of the very best clinicians and perhaps the foremost researcher we have.

Meet the guest speakers

Richard C. Schwartz, Ph.D.
guest speaker


The Founder of Internal Family Systems.

Dr. Richard Schwartz began his career as a systemic family therapist and an academic. Grounded in systems thinking, Dr Schwartz developed Internal Family Systems (IFS) in response to clients’ descriptions of various parts within themselves.

He focused on the relationships among these parts and noticed that there were systemic patterns to the way they were organized across clients. He also found that when the clients’ parts felt safe and were allowed to relax, the clients would experience spontaneously the qualities of confidence, openness, and compassion that Dr Schwartz came to call the Self.

A featured speaker for national professional organizations, Dr Schwartz has published many books and over fifty articles about IFS.

Robert M. Grant, MD, MPH
guest speaker


Dr. Robert M. Grant is a physician specializing in internal medicine, pulmonary medicine, and HIV medicine. He has more than 30 years of experience with research and clinical practice in sexual health and pulmonary medicine.

He completed a certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research from the California Institute of Integral Studies in 2016, and trained in ketamine assisted psychotherapy at the KRIYA Institute in 2017. He is a a board member of the American Society of Ketamine Physicians.
