Introducing an ALL NEW Online Course
Intimacy from the Inside Out
Join us for a 6-month online program exploring how Internal Family Systems (IFS) can be applied to relationships.
Course overview
Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO) is an experiential model combining intra-psychic work with interpersonal exploration. IFIO uses intimate relationships as a vehicle for growth and healing of both the individual and the couple.
Developed and presented by Senior IFS Trainer, Toni Herbine-Blank and Certified IFS Therapist and Senior IFIO Trainer, John Palmer, this program is designed for those who currently have a basic understanding of core IFS principles and want to expand their knowledge about how to apply IFS relationally.
Beginning in February, each month you will get access to about an hour of on-demand video within the IFS Learning Hub and live Q&A events.
Here’s what we’ll be covering each month.
