Description

This 54-hour Step 2 Somatic IFS Online Training will build on your immersion into the practices of Somatic IFS that you experienced in the Somatic IFS Step 1 program.  Each weekly session of this clinical training will focus on the integration and application of the somatic practices of awareness, breath, resonance, movement, and touch with the IFS Model of psychotherapy.  

Demonstrations, instruction, and supervision in the clinical application of somatic practices, reading materials, didactic presentations, and large and small group discussions, will provide specific practical interventions to access, witness, and unburden your client’s parts to facilitate the state of Embodied Self.  

This 54-hour SIFS Online Training is open to those who have completed at least an IFS Level 1 Training as well as a 30-hour Step 1 Somatic IFS Retreat or Online Series. This training is limited to a maximum of 36 participants.

54 IFS-CE credits are available for IFS certification or recertification

 

54 CE credits:  Psychologists, Licensed Professional Counselors/Licensed Mental Health Counselors, Social Workers, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapists offered by CCIH, a licensed CEU provider in the state of Illinois. Many states will accept CEs for license renewal if that workshop has approved status from another state. Please check your specific state rules & regulations.

Bio:  

Susan McConnell, MAPD, CHT, senior trainer for the IFS Institute, has taught Internal Family Systems in the US and internationally since 1997. She is the author of Somatic Internal Family Systems: Awareness, Breath, Resonance, Movement and Touch published by North Atlantic Books.  Somatic IFS is the culmination of her experience and teaching of various bodywork, movement, spiritual, and psychotherapeutic modalities that facilitate the embodiment of the internal family—the subpersonalities as well as the essential core Self—to bring compassionate witnessing to the implicit body stories of our individual hurts and societal burdens.  She offers retreats, workshops and trainings in Somatic IFS to participants throughout the world.
