Clinical Applications of Internal Family Systems Therapy: Step-by-Step Procedures for Healing Traumatic Wounds and Alleviating Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Addiction and More

After decades of clinical innovation and recent scientific research, the empirically validated Internal Family Systems (IFS) model has been shown to be effective at improving clients’ general functioning and well-being. This effective model provides clinicians with procedures for helping clients with the most challenging mental health profiles to heal the wounded, burdened, and traumatized parts of their systems.

Using the IFS model provides a compassionate, respectful, non-pathologizing approach to understanding the organization and functioning of the human psyche.

Embracing the transformative IFS therapy approach celebrates the natural multiplicity of the mind. Its assumption that every part of the system has good intention and valuable resources allows clinicians to approach even the most troubling of “symptoms” with compassion and respect. It offers therapists a powerful and effective set of tools for empowering clients with a wide range of clinical profiles to heal the wounded and burdened parts of their internal systems, resulting in:

  • a way to enter clients’ inner ecology without the overemphasis on containment and stabilization
  • symptom reduction and improved functioning for clients
  • deep self-healing within even the most troubled clients

Once you experience this powerful modality, you will want to incorporate it into your practice.

Through instruction, video demonstration, and experiential exercises, Alexia D. Rothman, Ph.D., certified IFS therapist, will show you step-by-step how to apply the most effective, empirically validated IFS therapy interventions to help your clients connect with and understand their conflicting parts to facilitate deep, lasting healing.

EMDR & Internal Family Systems (IFS): Integration Techniques to Resolve Inner Conflicts for Enhanced Trauma Processing

EMDR is one of today’s go-to trauma therapies for clinicians across the globe.

But when you work with complex trauma, you so often see clients getting stuck as their internal conflicts, (like feeling partly responsible, but partly helpless) get in the way of their ability to fully process the trauma.

Fortunately, IFS is the perfect complement to EMDR, giving you tools to work with these conflicting parts and giving your clients an accessible framework to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences.

Now in this training you’ll watch trauma expert Daphne Fatter, PhD, certified in both EMDR and IFS, as she shares a how-to guide on integrating EMDR and IFS in treatment so you can more effectively work with the emotional, cognitive and physical aspects of trauma to reduce your clients’ symptoms, individualize their treatment, and create the sense of coherence and wholeness they need to heal and grow.

Dr. Fatter will give you a step-by-step guide to using non-pathologizing relational interventions from IFS at each phase of EMDR, so you can provide trauma treatment that meets clients where they’re at and skillfully attends to the unique needs of each client’s internal parts.

Watch Dr. Fatter so you can:

  • Identify and resolve inner conflicts hindering your clients’ healing processes
  • Understand how EMDR and IFS facilitate the process of memory reconsolidation
  • Explore clients’ internal parts that may be contributing to their current challenges
  • Develop a greater sense of self-awareness and self-compassion in clients
  • Provide a foundation for internal relational repair within the client
  • Decrease the risk of client decompensation
  • Use self-tapping to promote emotional regulation
  • And much more

Don’t miss this chance to learn how you can combine these powerful treatments so you can more skillfully work with a wide range of clinically challenging clients including clients with complex trauma.
