Healing from Sexual Trauma
Copyright :


Healing from sexual trauma can be a complex journey involving struggles with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and other mental health and behavioural issues. At the cutting edge of treatment is the integration of Internal Family Systems with Integrative Relationship Therapy. In this workshop, you’ll be introduced to the benefits of viewing clients’ unwanted symptoms through an IFS lens, and you’ll explore how sex and relationship therapy can play a powerful role in integrating dismembered parts of the self. You’ll learn to apply the most effective interventions in the narrative, grief, and vision phases of treatment, and to move clients toward recovery. You’ll learn to help clients explore: 

  • Common sexual problems experienced by survivors of sexual trauma 
  • The three-phase recovery process for couples with trauma 
  • Triggers and how to implement a powerful IFS method for emotion regulation 
  • Identity, sexual integrity, and relationship assumptions
