When the map feels unclear, your presence is still medicine. 💛

In our IFS Consultation Collective groups, we slow down together to remember that:

Being genuinely with a client is an intervention
Attachment, embodiment, and parts work all belong
You don’t have to navigate complex cases alone

For IFS-trained and IFS-informed clinicians who want ongoing support, community, and depth.

Therapists aren’t meant to do this work alone.

In our weekly IFS Consultation Collective groups, clinicians bring their real, complex cases—and together we slow down, track parts, and discover next steps that feel clearer and more Self-led.

Whether you’re navigating dissociation, shutdown, looping critics, or your own parts that get activated in the room… you don’t have to hold it by yourself.

What our consultation groups offer:
• Support with stuck or overwhelming cases
• Experiential practice and embodied learning
• Space for your protectors to be seen and understood
• A steady community of IFS clinicians growing together

If you’re wanting deeper skill, more confidence, and a place to land each week, our IFS-Informed and IFS-Trained groups are open.

Home reflections in the heart of Chicago. ✨

Honoring the places that shaped us, and the parts within us that still feel at home. From IFS consultations to Chicago’s most iconic mirror — Elizabeth’s still bringing clarity wherever she goes. 💙✨

Sometimes hope feels dangerous. Our role isn’t to sell it, but to sit with the parts that learned it wasn’t safe.

12/03/2025

No matter how seasoned we are, every therapist hits moments of fog, overwhelm, or uncertainty.

Our clinicians know that consistent consultation is part of a dedicated IFS practice. Consultation isn’t about “fixing”—it’s about including all parts and returning to the flow of Self-led healing.

If you’re seeking steadier footing, more confidence, and a community that actually gets IFS work… we’d love to have you join us.

Mariel found a little holiday magic in Béziers, France… and apparently it has very big ears. ✨🐇 Even here, her curious, open-hearted presence seems to draw in all kinds of beings.

Wishing a magical December to all!

A gentle reminder from IFS Lead Trainer Mariel Pastor about trusting the process. Healing unfolds at the pace of truth, not urgency.

Looking back on a wonderful time at the IFS Conference two months ago — where connection, learning, and community were overflowing.

Here’s Paul Ginter and Marcella Cox, two of the co-founders of the IFS Consultation Collective, celebrating the ongoing growth of this work and the joy of supporting therapists in deepening their IFS practice.

✨ The learning continues each week inside our consultation community — where IFS grows from concept to lived experience.

In IFS, healing isn’t only about tending to what’s wounded — it’s also about recognizing what’s already working beautifully inside us.

11/19/2025

Even seasoned IFS therapists get stuck.
When a session stalls or a protector takes over, it’s not failure — it’s feedback.
As Paul Ginter reminds in our consultation groups, “Self-energy doesn’t grow by addition, but by subtraction. When our parts relax, what’s left is calm, compassion, and connection.”

The IFS Consultation Collective offers weekly live consultation with Lead Trainers Paul Ginter, Mariel Pastor, and Elizabeth Taeubert — all trained directly by Richard Schwartz since the 1990s.

You’ll gain:
🌱 Case consultation grounded in clinical reality
💬 Role-plays, meditations, and discussions to strengthen your confidence
🤝 Supportive community space for reflection and integration
Because mastering IFS isn’t just about knowing the steps — it’s about embodying the process, moment by moment.
✨ Go deeper, safely.

Connection begins within — and extends outward.
Here’s Paul Ginter, one of our IFS Lead Trainers, with his family by the river — a reminder that the flow of Self-energy isn’t confined to the therapy room. It moves through how we listen, love, and live.
