WORKSHOP 2: IFS and Polyvagal Theory: Healing Through Compassionate Connection™

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

  • Outline the basic principles of Polyvagal Theory (PVT) and how PVT can inform and enhance the application of any psychotherapeutic modality.
  • Discuss how understanding Polyvagal Theory can help therapists implement IFS more safely and effectively, especially in the systems of clients with complex trauma.
  • Utilize IFS strategies to shift clients’ nervous systems towards regulation and help them access their own capacity for healing.
  • Develop skills to help clients foster attuned, trusting relationships with their hyperaroused and hypoaroused parts, as well as parts that strategically utilize adaptive survival responses, such as fight, flight, freezing, and numbing, for protection.
  • Discuss the impact of the therapist’s internal state on clinical work and how clinicians can use this awareness to facilitate client regulation and healing.
  • Assess, through observation and discussion of real video examples, how to seamlessly integrate IFS and PVT in treatment.

What people are saying about these workshops:

  • "I am now a super fan of Dr. Alexia Rothman! Her presentation was so clear, calming, and engaging all at the same time, which I feel is so difficult to achieve. Wonderful presentation, valuable information!" - AC, LCSW
  • "This was the most well-organized and stimulating CE I have done online. I will be signing up for more! Dr. Alexia Rothman was knowledgeable, well-spoken, and personable.” - KN, LCSW
  • "Fantastic, great content, enhanced my knowledge on two approaches I love and value. I gained much more in-depth knowledge of PVT" - KCF, LMSW
  • "I thought this workshop was fabulous! I was not very familiar with IFS before this workshop, but learned a lot of great skills to use moving forward." - MC, LCSW
  • "She knows her stuff. She's absolutely lovely. My baseline for polyvagal theory was low. Applying the psychoeducation piece of polyvagal into my IFS work will only enhance my effectiveness. My clients will love this." - CD, LMSW
  • "I always enjoy Dr. Rothman. She has wonderful energy that is inviting and engaging. I could see she put a lot of thought and energy into the presentation. I will attend whatever programs Dr. Rothman would like to present." - SLF, LPC
  • "Dr. Rothman did a great job in presenting material that combined two different concepts. She was able to talk about IFS and PVT separately, yet explain how they work together to treat a client. Basically, and amazingly, she was able to teach two workshops in one." - AB
  • "Alexia was a fantastic presenter- very well versed in the subject matter and clearly explained the complexity of both PVT and IFS, and was masterful at demonstrating and explaining the connection and use of both. I am grateful to Alexia for the clarity with which she was able to present this topic and for including so many of the nuances of IFS as well as the ways in which she made my understanding deeper by using herself and giving examples of cases she's run into in her own practice." - AS, LCSW
  • "Magical, just like the client stated at the end of the video. Dr. Rothman truly embodies the art & magnificence of IFS! I very much appreciate your time today, for sharing your wealth of knowledge, & for your commitment to this work!" - KW, LMSW
  • "It was extremely informative and I can easily integrate the material into my practice immediately. I appreciated the personal touches that the presenter was willing to disclose, which allowed me to learn from a bottom up perspective." - PM, Psychologist
  • "A great compliment to previous PV trainings--actually allows PV to be more applicable to experiential work, in my opinion, rather than just psychoeducational. Very knowledgeable of and committed to both the IFS and PV framework. Her high value for experiential therapy was undeniable as well as brought to the training itself via opening meditation and closing video presentation. So so helpful!" - SF, LPC
