“Bringing IFS into the Market Place: A Paradigm Shift in Business Relationships”
Whether you are collaborating with colleagues or negotiating with clients, explore how the evidence-based work of Richard C. Schwartz, PhD., presents a fundamentally new framework to elevate and empower communications in the work environment. We will explore the intrapsychic realm of Internal Family Systems as it speaks to both how we perceive ourselves and how we can relate to others from a place of clarity, confidence, courage, curiosity, and (dare I say) compassion.

MISSION STATEMENT: If there was ever a time to pause from standard practices and open our minds to new possibilities that benefit our bottom line while contributing to the betterment of all people, it would be (you guessed it) NOW. The intention of the work that I do is to facilitate a fundamental reinterpretation of humanity's evolution, now a conscious one, toward the instantiation of practices that will ultimately and simultaneously benefit your employees, your business, your clients, and your planet. Within the Internal Family Systems model, you will be given tools to become an effective leader, follower, negotiator, innovator, contributor, and at the end the day, you will feel good about yourself and others for the right reasons.
