For all its joys, parenting is often a roller coaster of challenges. Even when parents are at the top of their game, the most routine curveballs — quarreling siblings, a child’s public meltdown, or a phone call from a teacher — can trigger unresolved shame, guilt, anger or disconnection in parents.
The Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach offers clinicians effective interventions that can assist parents to:
- More fully understand and heal their own wounds that their children inevitably evoke
- Better set healthy, non-controlling limits
- Create a more nurturing family environment
As both a seasoned clinician, and a parent who has been at the forefront of developing and adapting IFS for multiple settings, Frank Anderson can help you help those clients who are struggling with parenting.
In this webinar, you will explore both attachment and parenting styles and learn IFS interventions that really work to help heal underlying parental triggers.
IFS can help you help parents get to the real root of their own issues.
There is no known commercial support nor conflict of interest for this program.
By the end of this training, attendees will be better able to —
- Explain the IFS perspective on attachment and parenting
- Discuss development from a neuroscientific perspective
- Identify and assess the conditions under which parents can be triggered
- Explain techniques to improve the co-parenting experience
- Demonstrate IFS techniques that shift parents from being reactive to being responsive
- Demonstrate IFS techniques to access the Parent Self
