Intensive Level 1 Training Program in Internal Family Systems
sm
(IFS) Therapy
The Central Connecticut State University MFT program, in collaboration with the
Center for Self-Leadership, announces the offering of IFS Therapy Training
starting on October 12-14, 2018 in New Britain, CT.
The evidence-based IFS model
was developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz over the past thirty years and is rapidly gaining recognition as a powerful modality for working with individuals, couples, families, and larger systems using a combination of family systems and intra-psychic concepts. The model was developed out of work with trauma and abuse victims, and offers a rapid and gentle alternative to many of the current treatments for these presenting issues. The training program offers new knowledge, experiential practice of new techniques, demonstrations, videotapes of actual sessions, and supervision. Emphasis in the training is placed on the “Self-leadership” of the therapist to be able to bring out the Self of clients as a healing agent for their own “internal systems.” Co-Lead Trainers are
Ann Sinko, LMFT and Ralph Cohen, PhD.
The program is a 108-hour experience, which takes place for six 3-day weekends during a 1-year period, spaced approximately 2 months apart.
The fee for the training is broken into an automatic payment plan over the length of the program, to make the program more accessible during this difficult economic time.
Sessions start in October and end in May of 2019 running on
Fridays, 9:30 am—6:00 pm; Saturdays, 9:30 am—6:00 pm; and Sundays, 9:00 am—1:00 pm.
The program is open to professionals in mental health and human service fields and is approved for continuing education by NASW/CT for 108 CECs for LCSWs, LMSWs, LPCs, LMFTs, and licensed psychologists.
Space is limited to 30 participants.

October 16, 2018
Copper Beech Institute, West Hartford
9 AM to 12:30 PM
Followed by an amazingly delicious and healthy lunch
Approved for 3.5 CECs
Given the interest in complimentary alternative methods of treatment expressed by members of NASW/CT, we are following up on the workshop offered at our Spring Conference with this informative seminar presented by Jessica Serra, LCSW. The workshop will focus on two treatment paradigms within the realm designated as the “sacred sciences”—Ayurvedic Medicine and Botanical/ Earth Medicine.
Workshop participants will be guided through the Ayurvedic philosophy, a 5,000-year-old system of natural healing that has its origins in Northern India. How this eastern psychological and "whole self-health" framework conceptualizes anxiety, depression, trauma, and chronic stress will be explored. Attendees will learn about balancing nutrition/digestion and sample herbal and botanical supports for mental wellness and the role they play as healers while learning fundamental self-care rituals that can be adapted to clinical work with clients. Comfortable clothing is suggested as this experiential workshop may include some simple stretching and a short walk.
