Description
Description:
Internal Family Systems therapy synthesizes two paradigms: systems thinking and the multiplicity of the mind—and brings concepts and methods from many schools of family therapy to the world of sub-personalities. In addition to learning how to help clients access their Self, participants will learn the dif-ferent kinds of parts they will encounter in clients (managers, firefighters, and exiles) and how to help those parts transform. The workshop will provide tools to help therapists stay centered and open-hearted, as well as provide a user-friendly language for therapy that encourages disclosure and empathy.
Educational Objectives:
- Identify the basic theory and principles of Internal Family Systems therapy.
- Explore the dynamics of the three group system, which are the three categories of sub-personalities that most often present in therapy: Manager parts, Firefighter parts, Exiled parts.
