Unlocking the Gifts of Anger
An IFS Experiential Workshop
In many cultures, anger remains one of the most misunderstood and unwelcome emotions, often burdened by the belief in its destructive power.
In this workshop, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of anger through the Internal Family Systems approach. Together, we will embark on a journey to comprehend the parts within us that hold the anger energy, acknowledging that each part has its own story and purpose. Our goal is not to suppress or eliminate the angry parts but to receive their insights and gifts, so we can make good use of the powerful energy that anger offers to our system.
Time: Friday, May 31st, 2024, at 5:00-6:30pm Pacific Time

“I like the flow of the presentation. I appreciate the explanation of parts and how it may be experienced in various ways and it may hold anger. ”
“The balance of experiential activities and teaching was perfect for me. I deeply appreciate your courage, knowledge, and guidance!”
Intro to Using the Internal Family Systems Model in Treating Trauma
Tuesday, April 30 · 9:30am - 12:30pm PDT
Hosted by Family Paths
This workshop provides an overview of the theory and core concepts of the IFS model, case studies using IFS principles and techniques to help clients with complex trauma histories such as system-involved and adverse childhood experiences, and examples of utilizing IFS as a self-care practice for therapists. In addition, this workshop demonstrates a non-pathologizing and compassionate view of trauma symptoms and psychopathology, so that we can invite more safety, connection, and healthy boundaries into the therapy room.
“This was an excellent training: well-paced, informative, and contained. I greatly enjoyed the
experiential exercise, and found it to be remarkably effective, even though I have no experience with IFS myself. ”
“Excellent trainer. Good at explaining concepts. Good use of personal experience to help illustrate the model.”
“Dora was an amazing facilitator and clearly a very skilled clinician. The experiential workshop was very effective in bringing together all the concepts.”
“I look forward to using “parts” language to allow my clients to externalize some of the intense emotions they may be experiencing.”
Setting Heart’s Intention
IFS New Year Meditation Workshop

UC Berkeley Professional Development Training Seminar
IFS and Trauma
This training is for UCB Post-MSW Fellows ONLY
In this training, I am going to share my experience with Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) as a trauma therapist and a client.

TEAM-CBT Therapists Training Session
IFS Demo and Q&A
Feedbacks from participants:
“I’m noticing in IFS “slow is fast” with Dora (and the client) vs TEAM CBT, heal quick, get the finish line. A good paradox to merge the two.”
“A very powerful and deeply moving therapy session, thank you so much for Dora for the incredible skills and presence in the session. There was a sense of real healing taking place.”
“Thank you for being here and demonstrating this powerful work and your valuable skills! Your soothing voice was so comforting and helpful as well as how patient you are while guiding each parts that came up for (the client).”

我能重拾
"无条件爱自己"的能力吗？

IFS Therapist Panel
APISWC Northern California July Networking Forum
My colleagues Philip Chang, Rebekah Gong, and I will be hosting an introductory IFS workshop with Asian Pacific Islander Social Work Council Northern California!
As Asian Pacific Islander (API) identified IFS therapists, we can't wait to share our firsthand experience with this incredible therapeutic model.
Please keep in mind that while this workshop provides valuable insights, it is an introductory session and not a substitute for IFS Institute training. However, it's an ideal opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the model from API therapists like us.

本工作坊是以内在家庭系统疗法（IFS）的核心理念为蓝本，结合概念讲解、案例剖析、以及自我体验，理解创伤之后心理保护系统的状态、作用与功能，学习如何与“内在保护者们”安全地建立联结、展开对话、以及进行干预。工作坊主要适合心理工作者，也适合有稳定心理治疗/咨询经历的自我探索者。
Feedbacks from participants:
“这次工作坊，让我理解了为什么读书会的老师说“最好还是去体验IFS”。果然，最好的学习方式就是体验本身。”
“A new perspective on self from the Asian Chinese perspective. Being immersed in the Chinese terminology for IFS. The culture of 强权。Legacy burdens of self sacrifice for the good of family, community, society. The difficulty to accept compliments as a protector.”
“有框架的去理解创伤，很有帮助，因为创伤一下子的冲击性太强，如果不用保护者、受伤者、真我这些部分加以理解，会让人有点容易卷入和融合。但是有一个简明扼要的框架，配合上一定程度上的自我认识，就能很快分清楚自己哪个受伤者被触发了，哪个保护者又启动了。”
“理论的角度说，我觉得最受启发的是firefighter和manager这两个对保护者小人的比喻，就很贴切，真的一听就能明白这其中的区别，尤其想到成瘾困扰的来访，觉得很受用。另一个很受启发的地方是Dora这个工作坊的整体框架：先让protector放松去建立内在安全，然后再和受伤小孩对话。这个大的框架也很受用。”
“Thank you for the workshop. It will help me immensely to work with Mandarin-speaking clients using IFS.”
“能够从一个华语咨询师那里学习到这些非常提炼的关于IFS的核心概念，内心很真诚地感恩！听到Dora举的大部分例子也都和我们熟悉的华语文化语境相关，也很感恩，觉得信息接收起来比平时接收英文training要更容易。”
“本工作坊中，我印象最深的体验是：: 談到真我文化屬性的部分，最後書寫的部分也滿有趣的。”

“Dora真的讲得非常清晰！既有核心理论的梳理，又有非常实用的案例，而且还特别贴合我们华人群体比较常见的一些issues！”
“我非常欣赏Dora分享的很多理论梳理都是她自己integrate之后再输出的一些想法。这一点我其实整场都能感受到：Dora回答每一个问题都非常自洽，说明整个IFS的体系Dora自己真的是有真切的领会，而不是去搬运她不理解的“大师”理论。”

告别低自尊
不讨好不攀比，活出自我
自我否定、人际关系敏感、习惯性讨好、下意识攀比、患得患失... 低自尊的人暗自较劲，用力取悦这个世界，内心却依然住着一个匮乏的自我
——其实，健康的自尊并不需要来自他人的、外部的认可。
与其向外需索，不如向内挖掘。
这门课将带你理解低自尊带来的负面情绪，顺藤摸瓜找到情绪背后的真实自我，用温和而坚定的方式，与内在的「缺爱感受」进行对话，重新找到自爱的自我力量。

“非常感谢你，经过了一段时间的学习，除了最后一篇还没来得及，前面每一篇我都听了至少五遍，文稿看了至少五遍，因为从前我学习到的关于自尊的零散知识，在你的课程被有效的整合，我一次次的学习你的课程内容，为了理解，记忆，内化，思考，可能还要继续读很多次，我现在对解决低自尊问题有了更多的信心，而这特别的感谢朵拉！”
“这堂课我听得泪流满面。我想起了很多小时候的事。”
“讲的真好，苦恼了近三十年了，一直以为心理咨询没啥用，但是发现这些情绪是有前因后果的，只有知己，才能控制改变。家人对我都很好，但是对比老师说的的确能够对号入座。”
“以前一直知道却不肯承认自己其实是自恋的，现在越来越崩溃已经感到自己无法承受住了，重新开始认识自己，了解自己，发现真的需要正面面对自己，不能够逃避也不能再一直受到童年成长的影响了，慢慢的学会爱自己，对自己打开心扉才能够真正使自己快乐，不再受到煎熬”
