We warmly invite you to a long-awaited conversation with Tom Holmes, author of Parts Work: An Illustrated Guide to Your Inner Life, a book that introduced many mental health professionals to the language of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and opened a new perspective on psychotherapy and psychological healing.

During this event, we will explore the story behind the book, its central ideas, and their relevance today. We will also reflect on what helps us remain grounded and whole, even in the midst of life's challenges. Tom Holmes will share his thoughts on integrating the IFS model with spirituality and will answer questions from participants.

Our guest:

Tom Holmes, PhD, is Professor Emeritus at Western Michigan University (USA), a longtime student of Richard Schwartz, and has been teaching psychotherapists and counselors for more than 40 years. He is also widely known for his programs on burnout prevention for psychologists, psychotherapists, physicians, and other helping professionals.

Since 2007, Tom has trained psychotherapists in countries around the world. He has worked with professionals supporting Syrian and Iraqi refugees in Jordan and, since 2023, has been supporting Ukrainian psychologists and psychotherapists working in the context of war.

A distinctive feature of Tom Holmes's work is the integration of contemporary psychotherapy, philosophy, mindfulness practice, and contemplative traditions from diverse cultures, all grounded in a deep respect for the human inner world.
