In today's episode, we're hoping to inspire therapists to embrace the variety that IFS brings to supervision. We cover a lot, including:

· Examples of individual and group IFS supervision
· Differentiating the role of the IFSI Approved Clinical Consultant and IFS supervision
· The importance of regular supervision, e.g. when consciously transitioning to IFS
· The different focus points/facets of IFS supervision
· Working with Figuring Out parts and Drama Triangle parts

You'll find details of the books and papers we make reference to in the show below, as well as other useful resources:
