Rupture & Repair in Relationships
A free training with Richard Schwartz, PhD, Frank Anderson, MD, Pat Ogden, PhD, and Chris Irons, PhD
In this free clinical session, leading experts in IFS, attachment, and trauma share how to recognize these internal ruptures — and help clients move toward clarity, regulation, and repair.
You’ll learn how to help clients:
- Work with polarized internal states driving relational rupture
- Regulate trauma responses that block repair and reconnection
- Support confident, self-led decisions — whether toward repair or closure

What you’ll learn in this focused, 45-minute clinical workshop
FOUNDATION
Understanding Rupture Through a Parts-Based Lens
Learn how to help clients view both internal and external ruptures from a compassionate, parts-based perspective — so repair doesn’t begin from fear, guilt, or pressure.
CLINICAL APPLICATION
Working with Internal Conflict That Blocks Repair
See how internal ruptures show up emotionally and somatically, and how to work with polarized parts so clients don’t attempt repair from anxiety, appeasement, or shutdown.
INTEGRATION
Facilitating Self-Led Repair — or Conscious Closure
Dr. Richard Schwartz shares a step-by-step approach for helping all of a client’s parts come together — so decisions about repair or separation come from Self, not survival strategies.
