Loss leaves your client’s inner world in disarray. Overwhelmed and fragmented, some parts shut down entirely. Others try to protect them by avoiding the pain. Still others carry the raw hurt – desperately needing to be seen, heard, and held with compassion. But the inner conflict between these parts can leave clients stuck, unable to fully experience, express, or process their grief. That’s why if you work with grieving clients you need to be using Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy. Because IFS offers a compassionate, structured approach to help clients connect with their inner parts, restore internal balance, and safely navigate the grieving process. In this one-day training, you’ll join nationally recognized grief and loss expert and Certified IFS Therapist Lara Krawchuck, MSW, LCSW, MPH. She’ll show you step by step how to apply the IFS model to any type of loss – including traumatic losses, living losses, attachment injuries, and more. You’ll learn: This program will give you practical, hands-on IFS tools to help clients process grief safely, resolve internal conflicts, and move toward meaningful healing. Don’t wait – register now to transform the way you work with grief.
