NICABM – IFS And Complex Trauma: A Roadmap For Treatment
IFS and the Neuroscience of Complex Trauma: A Roadmap for Treatment
If the extreme symptoms of complex trauma have ever left you unsure of what to do next with your client . . .
. . . integrating a parts approach from Internal Family Systems (IFS) might help.
You see, IFS is designed to help you uncover, build trust, and gently work with the parts of clients that drive extreme symptoms (like rage, fear, panic, or dissociation).
That’s why we called on Frank Anderson, MD to share how you can use IFS to confidently work with your client’s trauma response and bring healing to their most wounded parts.
IFS and Complex Trauma: A Roadmap for Treatment
In this workshop, Frank Anderson, MD dives into the neuroscience of complex trauma and its symptoms, and how that can inform your approach.
He’ll also share how you can blend Internal Family Systems (IFS) with other experiential approaches to help treat some of your client’s most extreme, wounded parts.
Here’s the agenda:
- How the neuroscience of complex trauma can direct a therapist’s decision-making
- Three categories of extreme trauma responses (and how to work with each)
- How memory reconsolidation can be key to emotional healing
- How a parts approach can help you manage countertransference when treating complex trauma
- Common roadblocks to treating complex trauma (and how to overcome them)
