This Conference may be a good fit if

You are noticing that:

• Therapy sessions feel layered or complex
• Clients shift between different emotional states
• You are looking for a clearer way to work with parts
• You want more structure without losing flexibility
• You are interested in trauma and attachment-informed practice

It is for people who want sharper thinking, stronger clinical language, and richer conversation about parts work, research, trauma, attachment, and therapeutic change.

A Conference Designed For Real Clinical Practice

This is not a conference built solely on theory.

It is designed for clinicians who want:
clear thinking in complex sessions,
practical ways to work with parts, and
a framework that holds under pressure.

You will explore how Resource Therapy supports direct, structured work with personality parts, also known as Resource States.

Why More Therapists Are Turning To Parts Work Psychology

Many client presentations involve more than one issue at a time. Trauma, attachment injury, internal conflict, dissociation, and persistent emotional patterns often sit side by side.

Without a clear framework, sessions can begin to feel uncertain, repetitive, or difficult to track.

Parts work offers another way of understanding complexity. It helps therapists recognise which part is active, what function it is serving, and how to respond with greater precision.

What You Will Gain

By attending, you will deepen your understanding of parts-based therapy and gain clinically relevant perspectives you can carry back into your work.

The conference is designed to support:

  • clearer identification of the active part in the session
  • greater confidence in working with complexity
  • stronger language for explaining parts work to clients
  • practical ideas for trauma-informed and attachment-informed practice
  • connection with an international professional community

Meet The Speakers

Learn From Clinicians Advancing The Work

This conference brings together clinicians, trainers, and educators who are actively shaping the application of Resource Therapy across different settings and countries.

These are practitioners who work with complexity every day. Their contribution lies not only in what they know, but in how they think, how they respond in session, and how they continue to refine their work over time.

Philipa Thornton

President – Resource Therapy International
Psychologist | Clinical Supervisor | International Trainer

Philipa Thornton is a psychologist and international trainer known for her clear, structured approach to working with personality parts. Her teaching integrates clinical precision with a deep understanding of trauma, attachment, and relational dynamics.

International Faculty

Many client presentations now include layers of:
trauma, attachment injury, neglect, internal conflict, and
shifting emotional states.

Without a clear model, sessions can feel uncertain or repetitive.

Parts-therapy offers a way forward.

It allows you to identify which part is active, understand its role, and respond with precision.

That shift often changes the direction of therapy.

Resource Therapy has been termed Advanced Ego State Therapy, acknowledging its historical roots.

When Parts Pull In Different Directions

Working With Conflicted States In Real Time

The Part That Keeps Distance

Understanding Avoidance Without Pathologising

Consider how protective and avoiding patterns function, and how clinicians can work with them respectfully and effectively.

Finding The Part At The Helm

Bringing Direction To Complex Sessions

That is where conversations deepen, language becomes shared, and understanding grows more precise.

For many clinicians, this is where learning becomes more integrated and more memorable.

Resource Therapy continues to grow across Australia, Europe, and beyond, with increasing interest from clinicians working with trauma, attachment, dissociation, and complexity.
