SUMMARY:💲SPECIAL SALE!💲Enneagram and Internal Family Systems (IFS): Working with Our EnneaTypes and Our Parts
DESCRIPTION:Last-Minute Deal! $50 Off!\nEnneagram and Internal Family Systems (IFS): Working with Our EnneaTypes and Our Parts\nPresented by: Dr. Jennifer Manlowe\nWhen: Thursday\, July 23rd\, 2026 | 9:00 am – 4:30 pm Pacific Time\nWhere: Live via Zoom (you’ll receive the link the week of the workshop)\nContinuing Education Credit Hours: 6 CEs | Cost: $190.00 Now Only $140.00!\nWorkshop Description:\nBoth Internal Family Systems (IFS) and the Enneagram have been used to gather people eager to understand and work with troubling thoughts\, feelings\, and behaviors\, and to do so on a deeper level than “Talk Therapy” alone. \nIn this continuing education workshop\, we will explore how both schools of thought intersect to inspire harmony of mind-body-emotion in our clients and ourselves. \nAfter attending this workshop\, you’ll be on your way to understanding the basics of the Enneagram as a Wisdom Tradition and the fundamentals of IFS as a psychotherapeutic model (developed in the 1990s). \nYou’ll see that both schools of thought work to map out parts or sub-personalities within us—each with its own thoughts\, motivations\, and behaviors eager for transformation. For instance\, with the Enneagram\, there are “three centers of intelligence\,” and in IFS\, there are three categories of parts: managers\, firefighters\, and exiles. Meeting and interviewing these parts has the power to foster freedom from old ideas of self and others. \nReturning to what Enneagram calls our essence or “higher self” and leaning into what IFS calls “Self-Energy” will be explored. Tripartite awareness practices will be shared. \nThe Enneagram is a personality typing test with nine distinct types of people. Like parts\, each type has its own core fears\, desires\, and motivations. When translated\, this symbol offers a psychospiritual model for growth that can be used by health professionals\, coaches\, and spiritual directors to gain self-awareness about patterns in clients’ (and our own) relationships. \nBoth the Enneagram and IFS methods can give us valuable insights into why our clients do the things they do and how to unmask and transform harmful behaviors in a curious\, compassionate\, and nonjudgmental way. \nWhether you’re looking to understand yourself better as a helping professional\, strengthen your skills with your clients\, or cultivate growth through tri-partite awareness (mind-body-heart) work\, both models provide tools that will deepen insights and help you along the way. \nWORKSHOP OBJECTIVES:\nBy the end of the workshop\, you’ll be able to assist your clients in finding an integrative approach on their path to healing by first: \n\nIdentify the general healing frameworks of Enneagram Wisdom and Internal Family Systems\nUse Enneagram Wisdom as a method for “mapping” our IFS parts\nDistinguish the systemic origins of one’s EnneaStyle (an intersectional approach)\nUncover how to work with your clients’ (and your own) disowned “parts”\nGain insight into how EnneaStyles and IFS parts can evolve with compassionate curiosity\nBuild a bridge from your preferred therapeutic models to your newfound Ennea and IFS Insights\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n
