In today’s episode, we speak with Joanne about her recent chapter on a powerful IFS technique for exploring countertransference, commonly known as the fire drill. “Joanne, describes The Fire Drill as one of the most effective IFS strategies that therapists can use to address countertransference and begin sessions in a centered self-led state. the fire drill technique is an efficient way of getting organized before sessions, enabling you to start sessions from a space where you are curious, centered and compassionate.
Joanne shares many examples from her own practice of when she has used this technique as well as examples of how other therapists in her consultation groups have used the fire drill technique to get clear on their own stuck points, and help their clients work more deeply in their therapy.
