Direct Access: An Essential IFS Skill

Direct access is an essential IFS skill; embodied ease with direct access increases your competence as an IFS practitioner. Throughout this course, you will examine different applications of both implicit and explicit direct access. You will leave with increased confidence and clarity with direct access skills. 

This learning program was held live in Spring 2023. You can now access a recorded version of the program and learn at any time, at your own pace. During each module, you’ll first watch a teaching video with Frances Booth which includes experiential exercises and video examples. Then you’ll learn from IFS Founder Dick Schwartz, either by reviewing video demos of his work with clients or by watching as he provides case consultations. Finally, at the end of each module, you’ll watch a recording of Fran’s live event in which she answered learners’ questions. 

An IFSI Certificate of Completion will be available upon completion of this program. Your completion status will be tracked automatically as you progress through the program modules. Once you have completed all program modules, and watched all videos in their entirety, you will receive a Certificate that acknowledges you have received 14 IFS Credits for completing this program. Professional continuing education credits are not currently available for this learning program.
