IFS Model Introduction

  • 4 Oct 2019
  • 5 Oct 2019


October 4-5, 2019 | Lindon, UT | 8:30 am-5:00 pm

This workshop will provide an advanced introduction to the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Model, a unique and compassionate model of psychotherapy that locates the source of healing within the client. IFS is an evidence-based model that has proven effective in the treatment of such wide ranging physical and emotional challenges as rheumatoid arthritis, depression, anxiety, addiction, sexual compulsivity, trauma, eating disorders, self loathing, dissociation and suicidal ideation. IFS has surged in popularity in recent years as clinicians have discovered its radical effectiveness with otherwise entrenched populations. IFS was the basis for the popular Pixar movie Inside Out, and is being used in such diverse environments as inner-city classrooms, professional athletic trainings, therapy centers, and peace negotiations. Particular attention will be given to ways in which the IFS and CSAT models can be integrated for enhanced clinical outcomes for clients struggling with sexual addiction and betrayal trauma. 


Open to All Licensed Professionals.
