Self-Led Healing in a Broken-Hearted World: Expanding Clinical Competence

Welcome! Do you work with clients struggling to make sense of loss, trauma or suffering? Are you learning IFS and longing to deepen your practice? Do you want to be part of a vibrant healing community dedicated to professional and personal growth? If so, you are invited to join Lara's virtual Professional Consultation Group, Self-Led Healing in a Broken-Hearted World: Expanding IFS Competence.

 

Our work as healers is demanding and often isolating. No one can do this important
work alone! HELP is near! Consultation groups offer a safe space for you to share
clinical questions, vulnerability, victories and growth. Your consultation group
experience will help you be more Self-led, effective and confident in your clinical
work. 

 

​Together we will expand your IFS skills, explore the role of Meaning Making with
parts and discuss melding IFS and other Trauma-informed models of care.
We will
explore challenging cases, discuss times when you feel stuck or blended with critic
parts, support personal healing related to your work, and build a supportive community of like-minded healers!
