Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy continues to evolve as a leading approach for trauma treatment, supported by growing neuroscience and clinical evidence. It’s among the most effective, targeted approaches to help clients find safe ways to connect to early childhood emotions, tapping into their innate wisdom and transforming negative beliefs to help them achieve lasting change. In this dynamic workshop, you’ll learn how to integrate IFS with neurobiological and trauma-informed care to deepen your understanding of parts work—whether you’re a seasoned IFS practitioner or just getting started. Blending didactic teaching and clinical demonstrations, we’ll walk through emerging techniques for working with extreme protectors, dissociation, and complex trauma, examining the latest research on memory reconsolidation and polyvagal integration in the process.
