Liz Phillips: Intimacy, "De-shaming" Behaviors, & the Neuroscience of Conflicts #9

Liz Phillips is an Intimacy from the Inside out (IFIO) and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-certified therapist, as well as an IFS approved clinical consultant working in Toronto, Canada. She began her career with a focus on somatic approaches to trauma and moved into couples therapy. Liz's passion for understanding why people hurt themselves further when they've already been hurt in the past led her to explore IFS, a therapy model that supports people to discover their in-born agency and empowers them to heal themselves. With her heart set on helping people in intimate relationships, Liz then trained in IFIO, an IFS-based relationship model developed by Toni Herbine-Blank. After experiencing IFIO's power first hand with her clients, Liz's passion for the model led her to become part of the teaching team at the IFIO organization. Liz now trains other therapists to apply the IFIO model in their work with the goal of supporting clients to shift their defensive dances into safer, more loving connections. https://www.lizphillipstherapy.ca/ Find a Therapist: https://www.toniherbineblank.com/therapist-directory.html https://ifs-institute.com/practitioners/all Thanks to our sponsor: https://nutritionwithconfidence.com
