Bob's workshops

Examine beings, energies, or presences in the psyche that are neither parts nor Self, and are not rooted in our own personal lifetime.

Shamanism and modern psychotherapy have more in common that one might think. Shamans practice the most ancient form of healing we know. Psychotherapists around the world are now discovering ways to learn from their treatments. During this workshop we will discover how we can implement shamanic practices into our therapeutic work with clients.
This workshop will be led by an IFS Teacher Robert Falconer, who specializes in working with Unattached Burdens and psychedelic experiences, and an IFS Lead Trainer Ann Sinko, who has 20 years of clinical experience and is licensed marriage and family therapist in Connecticut.

IFS therapy and psychedelic-assisted therapy are a great fit. It’s because of that Internal Family Systems is one of the main modalities used in MDMA trials done by MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies).

During this online workshop series an IFS Teacher, Robert Falconer – who co-authored „Many Minds, One Self” book with Richard Schwartz – will take you on a journey, during which you will learn how to use IFS to support the altered states of consciousness, Robert and his guests – leaders in the field of psychedelic therapy – will talk about the application of IFS therapy during three stages of work with psychedelics – preparation, experience and integration.

The backbone of this course will be a detailed pragmatic outline of how we can deal with Unattached burdens when we encounter them in clients or in our selves. Our emphasis will be practical but we will also explore historical precedents and cross-cultural contexts for this work.
