​
This experiential, trauma-informed CEU workshop explores the integration of Internal Family Systems (IFS), intergenerational trauma, and spiritual identity in culturally responsive clinical practice. Designed for therapists, counselors, and healing professionals, the training offers structured tools for supporting clients in identifying and addressing legacy burdens—inherited emotional, behavioral, and spiritual patterns that shape internal systems and presenting concerns.
Participants will learn to apply IFS concepts such as parts mapping, protectors, and exiles in the context of spiritual and ancestral exploration. Clinical tools such as genograms, timelines, and imagery-based decks (e.g., tarot or oracle cards) will be introduced as visual aids to support the externalization and organization of family dynamics, spiritual identity, and intergenerational roles.
The workshop also includes a legacy-informed history-taking process with adaptations for clients who have limited or disrupted access to family narratives due to adoption, migration, or systemic trauma. Through a combination of lecture, demonstration, discussion, and guided practice, participants will gain practical tools and ethical strategies for engaging intergenerational trauma in a grounded, client-centered way.
Objectives:
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
-
Define the concept of legacy burdens and describe how they may appear in clients’ internal systems and presenting concerns related to intergenerational trauma.
-
Explain how Internal Family Systems (IFS) theory can be used to support clients exploring intergenerational influences, inherited roles, and spiritual identity.
-
Utilize genograms, timelines, and imagery-based tools (e.g., tarot or oracle cards) to help clients map intergenerational dynamics, family narratives, and spiritual or cultural frameworks.
-
Adapt history-taking practices to account for intergenerational patterns, cultural and spiritual narratives, and circumstances where family history may be unknown or inaccessible.
-
Apply ethical and culturally responsive considerations when introducing spiritual identity, intergenerational content, and visual tools into clinical sessions.
Target Audience:
Classes are open to all licensed professional counselors, licensed social workers, psychologists, psychoanalysts, MFTs, Substance Abuse Counselors, and students who are curious and seek to expand their knowledge.
