Certification

The Institute Certifies professionals as Interactive IFS Group Leaders. 

To be Certified by the Institute, you need all four components above, 
and you must demonstrate your competence in leading groups. 

The Certification process is not just a checklist, but rather an educational journey where you learn a lot about yourself along the way.

Note:

Certification affirms that the person is a competent leader of Interactive IFS Groups. It does not confer any legal, professional, or licensing rights. It does not authorize the practice of psychotherapy, counseling, coaching, or any activity that requires a professional license under local, state, or national laws.
