Internal Family Systems (IFS), developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz, offers a clear and structured framework for working with the “parts” that emerge in therapy. Rather than pathologizing symptoms, IFS understands each part as having a protective intention. Healing occurs when clients access Self energy, a grounded state characterized by calm, clarity, compassion, and curiosity. This live, virtual training introduces the foundations of IFS and explores how it can be thoughtfully applied across preparation, in session work, and integration therapy.
