A Model for IFS Supervision and Consultation with Liz Martins and Emma Redfern

This podcast explores the integration of Internal Family Systems (IFS) into supervision and consultation, addressing what the hosts identify as a gap in the IFS landscape. Therapists Liz Martins and Emma Redfern share their collaborative model, which includes six F's (Follow the model, Framing systemically, Favor stuckness, Firing up creativity, Foster fluency, Freeing up self-energy) and six P's (Perspective, Patience, Presence, Persistence, Playfulness, Partnership) designed to guide the supervisory process. They emphasize "favoring stuckness," getting curious about blocks in the model's flow, and freeing up self-energy within the supervisory system to positively impact therapists and clients. Redfern also discusses her forthcoming book, featuring contributions from top IFS consultants on specialized topics.
