In these intimate dialogues, two renowned names in therapeutic healing, self-awareness, and growth will come together to discuss their approaches, answer questions, and offer practical exercises you can implement in your day to day life.
Acclaimed worldwide for their revolutionary approaches to family and individual healing, Dr. Gabor Maté and Dr. Richard C. Schwartz offer unique perspectives and meaningful insights to their students, patients, and peers.
Gabor Maté, MD, is an author, speaker, and physician who specializes in addiction, stress, and childhood development. His many books include In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts and When the Body Says No. His signature psychotherapeutic approach, Compassionate Inquiry, reveals what lies beneath the appearance we present to the world.
Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, coauthored the most widely used family therapy text in the United States, Family Therapy: Concepts and Methods, and is the creator of the Internal Family Systems model, which he developed in response to clients’ descriptions of various “parts” within themselves.
Hosted by Sounds True founder Tami Simon, Dr. Maté and Dr. Schwartz will outline the similarities and differences between their proprietary methods:
Internal Family Systems—a profound psychotherapy model that shows us how healing and liberating it is to enter our inner world, and to lovingly care for the pain and inner struggles that haunt us.
Compassionate Inquiry—a psychotherapeutic approach that demystifies medical science and invites us to be our own health advocate.
By learning internal family systems and compassionate inquiry, we enhance our capacity to live a healthy and happy life. Gabor and Richard have already seen the impact of this work on thousands of clients and approach this course with the intention of providing you with valuable information to support you as a lifelong resource.
