IFS Training: Richard Schwartz’s Internal Family Systems Institute provides training in IFS to practitioners through intensive programs called Level One, Level Two and Level Three. At any point a year or after taking a Level One training a practitioner can apply to become a Certified IFS Therapist with IFS-I by completing further learning, supervision and by having had their work reviewed and accepted by an approved IFS-I certifier. Derek Scott also provides training in IFS and anyone that has completed his Skills and Competencies Course is considered IFS Informed.
IFIO Training: Intimacy from The Inside Out (IFIO) is a form of couples therapy with its roots in IFS. Toni Herbine-Blank and the IFS-I provide a special Level Two (IFIO) that teaches this couples protocol. In addition Toni provides Advanced IFIO trainings.
I work with adults and couples experiencing childhood and intergenerational trauma, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, and family-of-origin issues. My approach integrates Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and somatic and experiential approaches to help clients better understand themselves, heal longstanding patterns, and create lasting change.
