There is extremely high demand in the Level 1 training and whilst we’d love to be able to accommodate all interested parties it is not currently possible.
Please do note in the interim though, there are many other workshops available to get started and learn the basic skills, and self study options and we also recommend looking into getting a trained IFS therapist – and/or classes with accredited and experienced people whilst you wait.
You must complete IFSI’s L1 before being eligible for L2 and L3 trainings; other offerings (‘Stepping Stones’, ‘Foundations’ and PESI seminars etc) are not recognised by the IFS Institute.
Places for these trainings are selected by lottery, with places weighted for balancing gender, clinical qualification and experience, geography (regional applications preferred), and to support indigenous practitioners and communities through a bursary in each training. Offers and places in all official IFSI trainings are very limited, and we regretfully accept we cannot meet the current demand. We cannot enter into discussion about individual applications.
We do encourage community peer-learning, and getting your own therapy with a trained IFS practitioner in Australia – try the online directory of local trained IFS practitioners [https://www.internalfamilysystemstrainingaustralia.com.au/directory/ ] or the online US-global version [http://selfleadership.org/practitioners.html].
If you have already been waitlisted from earlier Level 1 applications, you do not need to add your name here again.
