Six-Day Retreat Description:
This 6-day retreat is designed for therapists and practitioners who wish to deepen their skills and presence in leading IFS-based groups. Drawing from Chris’s book, Creating Healing Circles®: Using the Internal Family Systems Model in Facilitating Groups, this retreat blends training, live facilitation practice, and Self-led healing in a beautiful setting. We’ll explore how group energy, intention, and skillful facilitation can create containers for profound healing.
Each day of the retreat blends experiential group work with hands-on skills development and integrative practice. You’ll engage in:
* Group sculpting and role-play
* Live facilitation
* Inner IFS exploration and parts work
* Energy awareness and clearing practices
* Mindful rituals and embodied integration
Who This Retreat Is For
This retreat is open to both IFS-trained and IFS-informed therapists and practitioners, including:
* IFS-trained therapists, coaches and facilitators
* Those who have completed IFS Level 1 or have equivalent training and experience
* Those working toward IFS certification
* Healers, clinicians, and space holders interested in weaving IFS into group work
What You’ll Learn
* A comprehensive framework for facilitating IFS-based groups
* Tools for leading sculpting, experiential processes, and intention-setting
* Insights into group dynamics and how to support them through IFS
* Techniques to stay Self-led while working with your own Parts during facilitation
* Energetic tools for clearing legacy and cultural burdens
