Meet the guests
Kay Gardner
Kay Gardner, LCPC, IFS Lead trainer has over 45 years of clinical experience and 35 years in private practice. She is a senior Lead Trainer for Internal Family Systems (IFS) and has been in leadership since the beginning of the approach, in the early 90’s. She also came to IFS as an experienced therapist and a teacher of Hakomi Body-Centered Psychotherapy and as a result, helped to integrate the body into the IFS practice.
In earlier work, Kay was the founder of The Women’s Circle, a women’s program in Chicago, and has also led various successful workshops around the country for men and women, including Persephone’s Journey; Men and Their Mothers; Women and Their Fathers; as well as Sacred Theatre for Couples, which brought her body-centered theatre approach to work with couples in groups or individually.
In her most recent work, presented nationally and internationally, Kay was the first to bring the notion of Legacy Burdens to IFS and has co-developed a unique program that integrates work with energy, chakras, and developmental stages, called a Possibility of awakening. Kay brings a body-centered and spiritual approach to all her work.
She is a warm, gifted, and heartfelt presenter who consistently garners rave reviews from her audiences.
