IFS with Rennie
FOR CLINICIANS, COACHES & HEALING ARTS PROFESSIONALS
IFS is a brilliant idea... Now inhabit its territory.
Fluency with the model starts with your own internal system — not across the couch from a client. Learn the model whole: its vocabulary, its arc, its underlying philosophy. Build your foundation here and develop confidence before you bring it to others.

HOW TO WORK WITH ME
ABOUT RENNIE
I know this from the inside
I'm Karen Grayson, PhD, LPC. Rennie for short. I've spent my career at the intersection of philosophy, psychotherapy, and integrative spirituality. IFS is the model that finally made everything click, for me and for the people I work with.
My teaching is dialogical — I think with people; I don't talk at them. The goal is a felt sense of the whole IFS map: the flow, the protocols, the language, how it all hangs together. We get there through courses, diagrams, handouts — and, most importantly, your own internal work, with me as a guide. Practice, until it stops feeling like a model and starts feeling like home. Then you're ready to bring it to clients.
