Who Can Join
This course is specifically designed for therapists, life coaches, and bodyworkers who are eager to learn Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy but face barriers to participating in traditional IFS Level 1 training due to its significant time commitment, high costs, or the competitive nature of the IFSI lottery system.
Accessibility and Inclusion: My primary goal is to make the transformative principles of IFS therapy as accessible as possible. I recognize that the costs and time required for IFSI training can be prohibitive for many practitioners. This course is a bridge, making IFS accessible to a broader range of professionals and their clients.
Ideal Candidates: This training is ideal for licensed therapists and professionals who are already trauma-informed and are looking to integrate parts work into their practice. Whether you are a seasoned therapist or a practitioner in related fields, this course will provide the tools and techniques needed to enhance your practice.
Join me to expand your therapeutic toolkit and empower your clients by integrating the deep, healing power of IFS therapy into your work.
