Working with Parts and Being in Self

Next Mentor Group begins in June 2022, 9:30-11 am Mountain Time Alternate Fridays – Specific dates will be determined by end of April

If you are new to the field of IFS or believe you would benefit from having a seasoned Certified IFS Therapist and mentor, this may be the group for you. This intimate group of 6-10 people will be a safe place to explore your own parts as well as deepen your understanding of the model. Your facilitator is an IFS consultant, as such, hours for this course will count towards IFS certification.

  • Experience two demos sessions (selected by random drawing)
  • Participate in case consultations.
Participants will be expected to:
  • Be on time, and on video for each session.
  • Participants may attend live (Lafayette, CO) if they have been vaccinated or boosted with the 9-months prior.
  • Explore the provided in-between practices to satisfy your curiosity and solidify your understanding .
Participants must have:
  • A rudimentary understanding of Internal Family Systems .
  • Read Richard Schwartz’ Internal Family Systems, 2nd edition
  • Have done some kind of IFS training by Advanced/Certified IFS practitioners/therapists
    (for example, IFS Institute Level 1, PESI, IFSCA’s stepping stones, IFSCA’s master classes)
    or be currently enrolled in a training or have had enough sessions as a client to have a felt sense of the work (If you don’t meet this qualification and feel you qualify, please contact me directly).

Commitment to Accessibility:

I recognize how systemic racism, meritocracy, capitalism, colonialism, patriarchy and white privilege have been an integral part of Western society and the field of psychotherapy. If you are a BIPOC or global majority identified person, or you are from another historically marginalized population, AND you are providing care to BIPOC or other historically marginalized populations AND have financial need, I offer one of these spots (after the 6th spot is filled) at a reduced price based upon financial need. If you feel this is you, please contact me directly.
