Pre-Conference Workshop With Maya Kollman, PHD
"Internal Family Systems and Imago"
April 30th - May 1st 2025, Vienna
Note: The Pre-Conference Workshop is held in English (without translation!)
The conversation about how to help people heal from traumatic experiences is varied and broad. Many wonderful doctors and psychologists have done
extensive research on the effect of trauma on the brain and a person’s life. Today, thank goodness, there is much written about how to help people overcome and heal from trauma. EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Brain Spotting just to name a few. To overcome a traumatic experience, one needs to be able to find ways to be with powerful body sensations, feelings, and also the stories that we tell ourselves. In addition to the above trauma reduction techniques, Internal Family Systems created by Richard Schwarz helps to befriend the different parts of the self. It is a wonderful addition to our Imago Toolbox. Where the focus in Imago is completely on the space between, IFS helps us work on the space within. I have found that focusing on both creates the greatest lasting healing for a couple.
In this pre-conference we will explore our own relationship with the different parts of ourselves and how that impacts the space between. We will work
together to discover the next step for each of us in our healing journey. By doing this ourselves using Imago and IFS we will be well equipped to work with
the traumatic experiences of our clients.
