Richard C. Schwartz, PhD

This workshop will provide a comprehensive overview of how to go beyond mere detachment into a more engaged and relational form of self-compassion and self-healing.  You’ll learn the strategies used in Internal Family Systems to contact the core “Self” and integrate the many, often conflicting aspects of parts that live within us.  Through exercises and case histories, you’ll learn how to assist clients to communicate with disowned and disliked parts of themselves and connect with the deep, calm, compassionate Self that’s the source of healing, joy, inner leadership, and transcendence.

National Institute for the Psychotherapies Annual Conference

Presenter:

Richard C. Schwartz, PhD
Location:

Kimmel Center, NYU, 60 Washington Square South, New York, NY 10012
Schedule:

Saturday, May 12, 2012 8:00am - 4:00pm
Description:

Dr. Schwartz developed the Internal Family Systems Model as an integration of family therapy models and conceptions of the multiplicity of the mind.  In this approach, there is an exploration of conflicting sub-personalities, or "parts," and how they function in relation to one another.  There is an internal "ecology" of these relatively discrete "minds," which can work adaptively or maladaptively.  Internal Family System therapy works with these "parts" in the way that a family therapist works with the various members of a family, to emphasize undervalued voices, and to reshape to balances.

Cape Cod Institute: Internal Family Systems Workshop

Presenter:

Richard C. Schwartz, PhD
Location:

Eastham, MA
Schedule:

Monday-Friday, July 16-20, 2012
Description:

This workshop is designed for therapists with little exposure to IFS as well as those who know the basics of IFS, but have trouble when clients resist, have particularly difficult parts, or when it comes to using the model with couples or larger systems.  We will begin with an overview of IFS and then move onto the deeper exploration of issues that arise during treatment.  This course will also provide the opportunity to participants to identify and work with the parts of themselves that interfere in their relationships with clients.  The workshop will be a balance of lectures, demonstrations and experiential exercises.
