"In this training video, Richard Schwartz, founder of Internal Family Systems Therapy, conducts six full-length sessions with a married couple dealing with the aftermath of an affair. Schwartz helps the couple gradually identify the key parts of themselves that interfere with their ability to be intimate with each other. Schwartz introduces the principles and techniques of Internal Family Systems Therapy, along with offering commentary after each session. You will learn to help couples identify their own parts that get in the way of getting and staying close to each other; create a safe atmosphere for couples to drop their defenses and engage in Self-to-Self connection; and apply IFS principles to your own countertransference reactions so you can be more present with your clients. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions."
