IFS HEALING
CIRCLES
What others say:
"The IFS Healing Circle proved to be an enlightening experience. The most significant takeaway has been a shift towards greater self-compassion. I've learned to approach frustration and self-criticism with curiosity and kindness, seeking to understand the underlying causes of these emotions. This perspective has been incredibly liberating and has fostered a more harmonious relationship with myself. The thoughtful structure, engaging content, and nurturing environment make it a standout program that I wholeheartedly recommend to others!" ~Chandni Saxena, WInston-Salem, NC

Sandy seems to track where the group is as a whole yet is watching out for the individual. If you are ready to understand the details of how and why you respond with certain thoughts, emotions and actions, ready to look inward and find your own power, then the IFS Healing Circle guided by Sandy will encourage your journey."

"Transformative. Enlightening. The experience was deeply relational on so many levels that I can't even wrap my brain around it. I got something from all of it and on many levels- both conscious and subconscious. The Circle affected me psychologically, emotionally, relationally and in many other ways. I will be processing the workshop for a long time."

"Becoming aware of internal parts and giving them a sense of safety brings opportunities for healing - emotionally, spiritually, and even physically. This is what has happened for me. If you are searching for a safe space in which to explore yourself, I highly recommend Sandy’s classes. They are truly worth it."

"I love the paradigm/lens of no bad parts - that my inner conflicts are parts of me that need attention and understanding rather than something to be fixed or suppressed. I wholeheartedly recommend IFS Healing Circle to anyone seeking to understand themselves better and foster a deeper sense of inner harmony."- Dr. Alex, Greensboro, NC
IFS Healing Circles
~ 10 week series with Sandy Phoenix ~
September - November, 2024
Online or in-person!
IFS Healing Circles combine the power of IFS with the power of deep sacred group work. IFS is a deeply compassionate model that helps us connect with the parts within us that need tending and develop a relationship with them that helps our whole system find more clarity, peace, joy, and love. It offers a caring way to work effectively with polarized parts that keep us stuck. It helps us unburden old traumas, emotions, and beliefs. And IFS helps us to inhabit our core sacred essence more fully and, over time, lead our lives from that essence.
These 10-week series will be experiential and will include guided meditations, parts mapping, embodied practices, and group sculpting. The sculpting is a powerful process where a participant works directly with me with the group members supporting by stepping into the roles of the person’s parts, bringing
about more clarity of inner dynamics and more space for healing.
Group size for each circle will be limited to 8 participants. This series is designed for those who already have experience working with their parts with IFS. Each participant will have the opportunity of a session with Sandy during group to have their own sculpt or do inner work with the group supporting.
IFS is a relational model, building relationships with your inner parts. Doing this work in a group, witnessing and sharing with others, greatly empowers each person’s own work as well as building like-minded community.
As a Shamanic Practitioner, I appreciate how IFS aligns with and includes many shamanic perspectives and aspects of healing, including soul retrieval, clearing of ancestral and cultural burdens, energetic and spiritual release with help of the elements, and connection with your sacred essence. I will hold a sacred shamanic space for this deep work.
