This workshop explores how Internal Family Systems (IFS) can radically deepen self-awareness and enhance therapeutic practice.

Challenging the culture of diagnosis & disorder!

All of our contributors are allies who are concerned about the medicalisation of emotional distress. We do not offer a platform to pathologising ideas and language.

- because labels don't tell truthful stories.

<p><br><strong><strong>Internal Family Systems Therapy within supervision: Opening the door to Self with</strong></strong><strong><strong> Dr Zandra </strong></strong><strong><strong>Bamford.</strong></strong><br>(For therapists, psychologists, supporters and supervisors.)<br><br><br>Do all therapists have a point at which they pathologise or ‘other’?<br>In this workshop we will be exploring ways to consider this within ourselves. Holding the premise that if and when we reach this “othering” place within our work we are gifted an opportunity for our own inner work and healing. We will be considering principles and techniques that allow therapists, psychologists and practitioners to turn inwards and heal to offer clearer and cleaner spaces for clients. This workshop will be challenging the concepts of transference and counter transference and offering new, honouring and respectful tools for our supervision spaces.</p><h3><br></h3><h3><br></h3><h3>(Internal Family Systems Therapy is a model that has been described as 'a paradigm shift for psychological therapies' and is quickly gaining increasing popularity amongst counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists particularly as a way of working with clients who have experienced trauma.)</h3><p><br></p><p><br></p><h3><br></h3><h3>Bio</h3><h3>Zandra Bamford works as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist and is the founder of Therapy NorthWest and has led NHS Psychology Services within crisis, inpatient and community mental health teams in the UK for over 17 years.</h3><h3>Zandra is passionate about reducing harm within traditional mental health systems and bringing in IFS as an effective tool for humanising systems, nourishing and nurturing both staff and those within services.</h3><h3>Zandra has worked with complex trauma throughout her career and having repeatedly witnessed the healing power of IFS personally and professionally with complex and enduring childhood trauma she now holds a practice delivering training, supervision, trauma retreats, individual and group IFS therapy.</h3><h3>Find out more about Zandra and her work <a href="https://therapynorthwest.org/about/" title="https://therapynorthwest.org/about/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>.</h3><h3><br></h3><h3><br></h3><h3>A CPD certificate for 1.5 hours will be available after the workshop.</h3><p><br></p><h3><br></h3><h3><br></h3><h3><br></h3><h3><br></h3><h3><br></h3>
