Internal Family Systems is a therapeutic approach that helps us to recognize the distinct “parts” within ourselves, and to understand how these parts shape thoughts, emotions, and behavior. It is grounded in the belief that each person has a core Self that is steady, compassionate, and able to guide the internal system with clarity. Through engaging with protective parts and the more vulnerable parts they support, individuals can cultivate healthier inner relationships and move toward meaningful healing. This model offers a thoughtful and supportive pathway for deepening self-awareness and strengthening emotional well-being. This event unites the expertise of Frank Anderson, MD, and Jan Winhall, MSW — two recognized leaders in trauma‑informed care — in a three‑part webinar series exploring how Polyvagal Theory and Internal Family Systems intersect and complement each other in clinical practice. Across three 90‑minute sessions, participants will examine overlapping principles, explore how protective parts and survival states influence trauma and addiction, and learn how to combine compassionate parts‑work with nervous‑system regulation to support healing from trauma. Each session concludes with an opportunity for live Q&A, and materials and recordings will remain available for a full year.
