Approved for 3 EMDRIA Credits

This live webinar teaches clinicians how to design and lead their own nature-based retreats that integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR. Drawing from clinical experience and the Healing Protectors retreat model used with military veterans and therapists, participants will learn how to combine trauma healing with nature’s regulating power. The seminar outlines core teaching elements (Self, Parts, Self-to-Part relationship, Burdens), retreat structure (solo hikes, small groups, fire rituals), safety planning, and staff roles (guides, servers, speakers). The IFS Scale developed by Lia DeLand will also be introduced as a tool to help assess Self-energy development over time. This training is ideal for EMDR clinicians seeking to deepen their healing work in nature and build immersive experiences that foster lasting transformation.

Presenter: Beau Laviolette, LCSW
