Independent Listservs
IFSI does not have a listserv, just a mailing list. To join the IFSI mailing list visit https://bit.ly/45n0g0V. We do not add individuals to the Listservs below, each list has a different contact/way to join.
Note: All Listservs are run independently and not moderated by the IFS Institute. For quality control purposes, we only list Listservs started by IFS Certified Therapists. We provide these listings as a tool for members of our community to connect and engage.
Do you have an existing IFS listserv you'd like to add to our list below? To submit a request for a new listserv complete this form: https://forms.gle/n6eT4SuX8N8zm7Z89. Please keep listing details up to date. Listing edit? Email Community Engagement Manager, Desiree Goscilo, at [email protected].
