**Director, Live **Programming**

Location: Remote U.S. or Canada

Department: Live Programming

Employment Type: FT

Minimum Experience: Executive

**About Us**

The mission of the IFS Institute (“IFSI”) is to bring more Self leadership to the world. IFS (Internal Family Systems) is a transformative, evidence-based psychotherapy, based on the view that the mind is naturally multiple and that we all have a core Self that cannot be damaged and that knows how to heal.

The IFS Institute provides training for professionals and organizations globally, an annual conference, a practitioner directory for those looking for IFS trained providers, and a growing number of online courses, books, and other resources.

Our goal is to create learning environments and a community that teaches and supports the internal welcoming of parts that have been exiled, shamed, or marginalized within our systems so that they may be seen, heard, valued, and ultimately healed. Building and supporting a diverse workforce is foundational to this goal and we are a committed equal opportunity employer. To learn more about our growing organization, view a few of our introductory IFS videos.
