Healing from neglect requires more than understanding trauma—it requires understanding development. This flagship four-part series offers an in-depth exploration of how experiences of absence, misattunement, and developmental disruption shape the internal system, the nervous system, and our ability to connect with ourselves and others. Through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), neuroscience, attachment, and embodied practice, participants will deepen their clinical skills while engaging in experiential learning that supports both professional growth and personal reflection.
Designed for IFS practitioners who want to move beyond symptom reduction toward developmental repair, each workshop builds upon the last while also standing alone as an individual training.
Part I – Understanding Neglect
Explore the foundations of emotional neglect, developmental absence, and misattunement. Learn how neglect differs from other forms of trauma, how it shapes protective systems, and why it is so often unseen in both clients and therapists.
Part II – Working with Neglect
Develop advanced clinical interventions for working with neglected systems, including collapse, dissociation, "I don't know" parts, self-like protectors, sequencing treatment, and adapting IFS for clients whose earliest experiences lacked consistent attunement and connection.
Part III – Relational Repair
Healing from neglect happens in relationship. This workshop explores how new relational experiences foster repair, including working with trust, dependency, receiving care, attachment wounds, and the therapist's role in creating experiences of safety, connection, and earned security.
Part IV – Understanding Complex Trauma Through a Developmental Lens
Complex trauma is often discussed as though it is a single experience, yet many clients carry multiple forms of trauma that require different therapeutic responses. In this workshop, we will deconstruct complex trauma into its core developmental components—including neglect (the absence of what was needed), invasion (what should never have happened), and single-incident trauma (overwhelming events). Participants will learn how each pathway uniquely shapes the nervous system, attachment, protective strategies, and the internal family of parts, allowing for more precise case conceptualization and more intentional, developmentally informed treatment planning.
$800 per session.
