DESCRIPTION
This training is primarily based on the experiential model of couples therapy which is primarily based on the Internal Family Systems model of psychotherapy, but includes aspects of psychodynamic therapy, systems thinking, and mindfulness practices.
This model was born from the desire to translate the concepts of IFS into a relationship setting and use the intimate relationship as a vehicle for growth and healing for the individual and the couple. Learn to successfully work through difficulties in couples therapy. In this training, IFS therapists learn to work with the extreme impulses of protective parts, facilitate interpersonal work, and help couples communicate well and deepen connection.
