Robert R Falconer

Robert Falconer is best known for his deep involvement with Internal Family Systems therapy as a practitioner, teacher, and writer. For much of his long career, he has focused on the healing of childhood sexual abuse and other major trauma.

He now is focused on placing IFS in a multicultural and historical context and working with the others within us --what we find in our minds that is not part of our systems, called unattached burdens and guides in IFS.

Bob has come to recognize and appreciate that how we conceive of ourselves and the boundaries of our minds is vitally important not only as a substantial cause of personal suffering but also as an underlying factor in many of our modern social problems.

Drawing from personal experience and extensive clinical practice, Bob is a respected international teacher who has led workshops in many countries, including Australia, Japan, Pakistan, Mexico, China, Poland Spain, Ireland Germany and Canada. He has also taught all over the US, including the Fort Beltknap Sioux and the Northern Cheyenne reservations.

Bob champions a holistic view that recognizes the inherent spiritual nature of psychological healing. Now in his mid-70s, Falconer remains an active author, teacher and thought leader. His work challenges Western therapeutic paradigms and advocates for a more comprehensive understanding of human consciousness.
