What are you longing for in connection? And what gets in the way?
Vibrant Relationships:
A 10-week group using the IFS and RLT models to explore how our parts help or hinder satisfying connection
Mondays- March 9th-May 11th, 4:00-5:45 PM Pacific time
This group is for individuals who want to grow their capacity for healthy, fulfilling relationships of all kinds.
This group will support you to:
Identify what “losing strategies” you may employ in relationships such as withdrawal, people pleasing, being right, or retaliation
Locate what’s underneath the strategies your parts use and how they get in the way of authentic and satisfying connection
Explore your childhood role in your family of origin and how that may be showing up in current relationships
Practice sourcing your worthiness and safety from inside yourself
Explore how power dynamics and systemic oppression show up in your relationships
Deepen in self-regulation and Self-leadership
Understand and release personal and legacy burdens of individualism, relational fear, patterns of enmeshment or distancing, and more
Develop new communication practices that invite intimacy
Create new pathways for safer, courageous, and more open-hearted connection
This 10-week experiential group for individuals (no couples or bonded pairs) will include guided practices, individual work, and group processes. Processes include sculpting, Circling, polarization work and more. As the facilitator, Wren is committed to co-creating an inclusive, culturally responsive, trauma-informed container that is neurodiversity affirmative and anti-oppressive. They welcome people of any age, race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, class, ability, relationship orientation, language and cultural background.
This course will be most beneficial if one has some basic understanding of the IFS framework of parts or multiplicity of mind. This can include IFS Level 1, Stepping Stones, listening to podcasts, or reading books such as Listening When Parts Speak, No Bad Parts ,or Greater Than the Sum of Our Parts. This group also draws on the work of Terry Real and his model Relational Life Therapy (RLT).

Testemonial from past participants:
“Wren is uniquely skilled in facilitating authentic connection between group members and between parts of ourselves with our Self-energy. The sculpting practices bring our parts to life and offer a potent healing opportunity. I would recommend this group to anyone!”
“I have participated in many different types of healing modalities and this group has impacted me in a way no other group experience has before. I learned new and powerful ways to connect with myself and my experience while being whole-heartedly supported by Wren and the other group members. This work is tender, deep, and offers a lot to take with you in day to day life. I'm so grateful for this offering and highly recommend it to anyone wanting more experience with IFS and parts therapy.”
“Wren is a wonderful facilitator who is clearly skilled at navigating the nuances of the IFS model and mediation in groups. Under their gentle guidance, I had the opportunity to practice consciously navigating disagreements, communicating my feelings, understanding my self and inner parts on a deeper level, allowing myself to be seen in vulnerability, and more. This experience has been nourishing on many levels and I highly recommend it to anyone who is curious about learning more about themselves and others in a safe and connecting environment.”
