Description

Parents and kids alike are in the midst of experiencing a “double trauma.”

For many, the overwhelming nature of the pandemic inevitably triggers or activates past traumatic experiences.

Join Frank Anderson, MD, international IFS presenter and author, to learn how Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy can help parents help their children safely and seamlessly deal with their fears, uncertainty and anger in the present, while also helping them integrate back into the “new normal” as we transition back into our lives.
