Mastering Counseling

Welcome to another informative episode of the Mastering Counseling podcast! This week we're talking about the Internal Family Systems Model (IFS), which is an integrative approach to individual psychotherapy. Joining Megan to explore this model is Jon Schwartz, who is acting executive director of The Center for Self Leadership or CSL. The Center for Self Leadership is "dedicated to the healing transformation of lives and cultures and serves as a critical link between therapeutic professionals and the wider community" through training and certification in IFS, and more. Jon also happens to be the brother of IFS founder Dr. Richard Schwartz! Jon completed his undergraduate education at Macalester College with a BA in Psychology and his graduate training at the College of Idaho with an MA in Education, Psychology, and Public Administration. Throughout his career, he served as executive director for several different organizations in the mental health field before landing at the Center for Self Leadership in 2008
