A proper introduction to the IFS model lays the groundwork for the whole IFS journey you are about to embark. A solid guidance from an experienced IFS therapist mixed with thoughtful and deep exercises is crucial if you want to feel confident in using IFS in your client’s practice.
We developed this introductory workshop because our community asked for a top class IFS introduction targeted at mental health proffesionals. This workshop will be lead by two certified IFS therapists with experience of assisting on a number of IFS training: Tisha Shull, who is a co-creator of IFS Talks podcast, and David Kitchings.

Many of us has caretaking and therapist parts that are very much similar to Self. Often, these are the parts that motivated us to become therapists and practitioners. But when we support people, such Self-like parts can hinder the progress of therapy. This workshops series will help you to discriminate between helping, caretaking, therapist parts and the Self, and show you strategies to unblend them.

One of the biggest challenges for IFS therapists and practitioners are protectors, who are difficult to befriend. These are the parts that doubt the existence of Self, cut us off from our inner experience, are not willing to share their positive intent or have any other extreme strategy that bring stuckness to the process. During this IFS workshop series you will learn new ways to befriend these difficult protectors.
