Patricia Rich, LCSW, CST-S Related seminars and products


When Patty first became interested in IFS, she thought it would be useful in the treatment of sexual dysfunction. Then, as she learned the model she got curious about how sexuality “lives” in the internal system. Now she believes that IFS is not only extremely useful in the healing of sexual dysfunction and trauma, but also that IFS offers a gateway to fabulous, intimate, sexual relating for anyone. She brought her insights to the IFS Annual Conference first as a half day session and then as a full day Pre-Conference workshop where she received much encouragement to continue to develop her creative approach. She is very pleased to have the opportunity through the Online Continuity Program to further share this evolving journey. She invites participants to Learn to L.U.S.T. (Love your Unblended Sexual Team) for their own benefit as well as that of their clients.

Patricia Rich, LCSW, CST-S is a Certified IFS Therapist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and Supervisor. She fell in love with IFS in 2011 and has since completed Levels 1, 2 and 3, served as a Program Assistant and offered IFS workshops. She founded The Relating Well Center, LLC, a relationship and sexuality focused private practice in the Philadelphia area where she welcomes clients and consultees of diverse ethnicities, sexual orientations and genders.
