IFS Level 2 Intensive Training Program (1015)
A Compassionate Approach to Addictive Processes (Canada - Virtual)
This IFS Level 2 training program takes place Nov. 6-8 and Nov. 13-15, 2024.
Enrollment for this program is now closed, but you can sign up for my newsletter below and be notified about upcoming IFS Level 1, 2, and 3 trainings!
IFS brings an innovative, new perspective to working with many types of addictive processes, including substance use and eating disorders. The current field is replete with treatment modalities and information that often offer conflicting ideas about how best to treat these challenging issues. In fact, many clients, including those recovering from trauma, will engage at some point in some form of soothing or avoidant “firefighter” pursuits. IFS can move us into a new dimension of treatment with these clinical challenges and offers methods for using clear, systemic interventions and effective compassion to neutralize polarizations that can occur in the traditional treatment milieu. IFS also enables us to access and heal the beliefs, burdens, emotions, and energies carried by parts of the client that are masked by addictions and eating disorders.
This training will focus on:
Viewing many types of addictive processes, including substance use and eating disorders through the lens of IFS
Practical application of IFS to treatment
The importance of Self-energy in the healing process.
The format of this online training includes lecture, large and small group discussion, experiential exercises, practice in groups, and live demonstration.
