IFS Direct Access
[Dropping the Unblend Agenda]
A 90-minute focused interactive Zoom webinar
Date and Time
- April 19, 2023 > 9:30 AM - 11:00 AM - US EASTERN
Course Description
This 90 minute live interactive webinar will describe the phenomena of blended parts in IFS which precludes the more widely understood method of working in IFS known as In-Sight. Direct Access is framed here as a frequently encountered condition which can be approached in more than one way. Identifying therapist parts with reactions, assumptions, and agendas is highlighted as an essential step. Particularly, the commonly held assumption of the need to unblend blended parts is addressed and a counterintuitive alternative is described. Implicit methods of working with blended parts are explored in detail.
