This 90 minute course is a live demonstration on zoom before an audience of over 60 predominantly EMDR trained mental health professionals who observed and supported a beautiful healing session for Jackie (a mental health professional herself), conducted by Bruce Hersey, a leading figure in the integration of IFS and EMDR, specifically as the originator of the Syzygy Model™, which also incorporates a memory reconsolidation perspective from Coherence Therapy.
In this session, he aptly demonstrates and teaches this model as he guides Jackie through a deep healing process focused on a compulsively over-responsible helper part that protects against falling into despair, aloneness and grief experienced with the loss of her sister when they were teens in a dysfunctional alcoholic family system. The session is followed by a rich debrief and Q & A with this informed and astute professional audience. Additional teaching points have been edited in, post recording, for enhanced learning.
