Q: Are the IFS courses offered by MCAFT Retreats the same as the IFS Trainings offered by the IFS Institute?
No. Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 IFS training programs offered through the IFS Institute provide comprehensive training and experience in the IFS therapeutic model. Upon completion of each level of training, participants are prepared to work as IFS therapists, having gained a breadth of knowledge and understanding about the way in which IFS enhances their lives, the lives of their clients, and others. Other IFS events and activities – such as IFS courses offered through MCAFT Retreats – are generally shorter and/or serve as introductions to aspects of the IFS model. Some of the courses offered through MCAFT are designed specifically to support and empower those who are waiting to get into a Level 1 Training through the IFS Institute. Other courses offered thru MCAFT might be geared towards IFS trained therapists, and those courses might require a Level 1 training thru the IFS Institute as a prerequisite to the course offered at MCAFT. We hope these courses nurture, support and empower you on your IFS journey!
