About me

I am certified in IFS therapy by the IFS Institute. I am licensed in psychotherapy in Illinois.
I am the author of the book Psychedelics and Internal Family Systems: A partnership in relational healing.
I help teach IFS trainings and retreats, especially those that focus on IFS and psychedelics.
You can find out more about my background on my LinkedIn page: www.linkedin.com/in/curt-kearney-39824643
I will be teaching this summer for the Cape Cod Institute, along with other faculty including Dick Schwartz, Jeanne Catanzaro, Fatimah Finney, and Cece Sykes. July 23-24, 2026. Online or in-person on beautiful Cape Cod! https://www.cape.org/courses/psychedelics-and-ifs-kearney-2026
Also see the Retreat page on this site for an upcoming retreat program I will co-lead. And the Seminar 2026 page for information on a 15 week professional seminar I will run on IFS in psychedelic practice. And feel free to sign up for my very occasional newsletter below to be kept in the loop on all this and more as events develop.
