Introducing IFS Masters

Alexia Rothman & Aníbal Henriques — Fri, 06 Jan 2023 22:15:38 +0000

Welcome to IFS Masters, an Internal Family Systems podcast aimed at IFS Psychotherapists and Practitioners. I’m Dr. Alexia Rothman. I’m a clinical psychologist based in Atlanta, GA with 25 years of clinical experience. I’m also an IFS speaker, trainer and consultant, and co-host of the IFS-informed podcast miniseries, Explorations in Psychotherapy.

Welcome, Everyone. I am Anibal Henriques and I’m a Portuguese Psychologist and Psychotherapist living in Lisbon, Portugal. I have decades of clinical experience, and decades of teaching and training Psychologists to become Psychotherapists. I am also an IFS Trainer and co-Host and creator of the IFS Talks podcast.

Our purpose with this podcast is to offer a new discussion format – 2 hosts and 2 guests per episode – around topics that will help deepen and expand our understanding of the IFS model and its applications in treatment.

We believe that this format, which involves two guests with expertise on each episode’s topic sharing and discussing their perspectives – both similarities and differences - will allow for a deep exploration of topics that we hope will provide significant value for your IFS work.

We hope that these discussions will foster the learning and skills of those applying the IFS model, both personally and professionally, in a variety of clinical settings and social contexts.

Our intention for this Podcast is to release one to two episodes each month. We hope you can subscribe and find the time to listen to the coming episodes.

Thanks for your time, and Looking forward to the first season with you all.
