Somatic Internal Family Systems Therapy introduces a new therapeutic modality that blends principles of somatic therapy with the traditional tools of the Internal Family Systems framework. During this 1-day workshop, Susan McConnell will introduce 5 core practices that you can apply to your practice: somatic awareness, conscious breathing, radical resonance, mindful movement, and attuned touch.
Susan McConnell has taught Internal Family Systems (IFS) in the U.S. and internationally since 1997. Somatic IFS, which McConnell developed in 2004, is a synthesis of her forty years of study, teaching, and clinical practice with bodywork, psychotherapy, and spiritual practices.

Learning about Polyvagal Theory through an IFS lens allows us to support our clients in going through a more embodied therapy process and to move from the survival mode to thriving and flourishing.

This workshop will be led by Dr. Alexia Rothman, a licensed psychologist and Certified IFS therapist in private practice in Atlanta. As Richard Schwartz said, “Lexi Rothman not only knows IFS deeply, she embodies it. She gets my highest recommendation as a therapist or presenter!”.
