Evaluating the Evidence and the State of the Science of Internal Family Systems in 2026
Join us for a special Internal Family Systems (IFS) virtual workshop which will cover the differences between shame and guilt, how each affects relationships between subpersonalities internally and people externally, and how therapists can apply this knowledge to help clients with a wide range of problems. This will be taught by Zev Schuman-Olivier, MD.
