    Learn clinical applications of Internal Family Systems as part of this introductory series

    Part 2 October 18: Clinical Applications of IFS

    (Must take Part 1 of this training to register for Part 2.)


    Note: This two-part workshop has been offered by Marin CAMFT in May 2021 and December 2022. If you took Dorothy's workshop previously, you are welcome to re-take this as a refresher, though note that BBS rules do not allow counting CEs from the same course multiple times (only new participants qualify for CEs). Part 1 will be offered the prior Friday, October 11th, as a separate event. You may register for just Part 1 or for both classes, but not Part 2 on its own.

    2 CEs available (for those who have not taken this course from Marin CAMFT before)

    Free for Marin CAMFT members and reciprocal chapter members!

    Review and register for Part 1: Introduction to IFS on October 11th separately here.


    Part 2: Workshop Description

    Even if you’re excited to apply the principles of IFS in session, you’re likely to find clients who are confused or uncomfortable when you start talking about their parts. There are creative ways of using IFS effectively. It can start with how we therapists experience and have compassion for our own parts, and whether we conduct the session from a perspective of Self-leadership.

    Having gained a basic structural understanding of the IFS model in Part 1 of this introductory workshop series, you’ll be ready to understand how your personal Self-to-part relationship impacts the session. Therapy may begin when a client connects with the therapist’s Self-leadership, rather than their own. Learning to do this for themselves is the gift of true self-compassion.

    Clinical Applications of IFS is an overview of IFS and its potential benefits. Completion of this workshop does not constitute being trained in the IFS model. Formal training is available through the IFS Institute at https://ifs-institute.com.

    Educational Goals

    In part 2 of this introduction to IFS, students will be invited to consider how application of the model varies for different clients. Through didactic and experiential learning, we will explore how the therapist’s self-leadership is critical to guiding a successful outcome.

    Learning Objectives

    Upon completion of this workshop, participants should be able to:

    1. Integrate Self-leadership skills from which to guide a session.
    2. Assess the type of approach needed for different types of clients.
    3. Recognize various styles of the IFS model: insight, explicit direct access, implicit direct access.
    4. Assess and understand their own personal parts and therapist parts.

    5. Recognize how their own parts impact their client and a session.
