Suicide Assessment and Intervention: Assess Suicidal Ideation and Effectively Intervene in Crisis Situations with Confidence, Composure and Sensitivity - Live Webinar
2022-03-28 06:00 - 14:00 (America/Phoenix)
Losing a client to suicide is your worst nightmare. And there inevitably comes a time when the suicidal client is more than just an intangible dread. When an actual person, suffering and sitting in your office, reveals they are having suicidal thoughts. Many clinicians are left feeling unprepared, frightened, and unsure what to do next. The weight of keeping someone alive can steer you in the direction of avoidance. Desperate and alone, suicidal clients can find themselves passed from one therapist to the next. And that’s not care.
Don’t let fear push you away.
This seminar will transform how you view and work with suicidal clients and give you the clinical tools you need to save lives.
Full of thought provoking lecture, engaging case studies, and guided instruction on a host of powerful clinical applications, this seminar will provide you with the tools you need to:

Assess for suicidal risk and identify implicit and explicit expressions of suicidal thought.
Formulate a game-plan for crises when suicide is imminent.
Intervene in suicidal despair with proactive approaches derived from the evidence based efficacy of CBT and DBT.
Effectively use targeted language with suicidal clients that will help you avoid stigma and successfully communicate your compassion.
Provide innovative grief support resources that connect clients and clinicians with other survivors of suicide and suicide loss.

Leave this seminar feeling confident and capable to work with suicidal clients and guide them out of the darkness and back into the light!

Are your current techniques just not working?
You’ve experienced the frustration; you have a client who seems to just not break through. You’ve tried your best, but the outcome is the same: he or she progresses for a while, then regresses again.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is the popular transdiagnostic approach that you can integrate into your practice to achieve positive therapeutic outcomes with difficult-to-treat clients.
Join ACT expert and presenter Daniel J. Moran, as he delivers an exercise and intervention-heavy course that will give you the tools you need to more effectively treat clients with PTSD, anxiety, depression or personality disorders.

By shifting client focus to their own values, ACT sets clients up to embrace behavior change that is meaningful to them while simultaneously fostering skills that allow clients to more effectively handle impulsive actions based on current thoughts or emotions.

Mastering the Unified Protocol: A Transdiagnostic Approach to Emotional Disorders - Live Webinar
2022-03-29 06:00 - 14:00
Real clients don’t fit into simple diagnostic categories. And when clients come in with multiple issues, it’s easy to fall into the “what do I treat first” trap.
But what if you could learn ONE protocol that gets to the heart of what creates suffering in every client with an emotional disorder, regardless of diagnoses?
Developed by Dr. David Barlow at Boston University, the Unified Protocol (UP) cuts across traditional diagnostic boundaries to focus on key psychological processes underlying most mental health issues. Leave behind the confusion and frustration of chasing treatment order or switching between approaches – with the UP, you will simultaneously reduce symptoms of co-occurring disorders, all while improving your clients’ quality of life.
In this workshop, Dr. Shannon Sauer-Zavala, co-developer of the UP, will walk you through 8 easy-to-learn modules and demonstrate how you can use UP principles flexibly to:

Harness your clients’ motivation toward change
Teach your clients to better understand and utilize the power of their emotions
Facilitate cognitive restructuring exercises to enhance the clarity of your clients’ thinking and deciding
Revamp your clients’ mistaken appraisals of triggering body sensations
Improve your clients’ ability to be present and in charge of their behaviors

Rooted in the power of emotion-focused CBT and shown to be effective in over 70 rigorous clinical trials, the Unified Protocol lets you get to the core of mental health issues and focus on your client – not labels.

Road to Independence: Assistive Technology in Transition Planning for Students with Complex Support Needs
2022-03-30 14:30 - 16:00
Assistive Technology (AT) devices and services can improve the ability of people with disabilities to participate independently in post-school settings, including employment and education. There are many possibilities when it comes to AT, but there is no “one size fits all.” Therefore, AT options need to be individualized and based on a student’s personal needs and preferences. It is during their high school years that students with disabilities need to explore, use, and become proficient with the AT tools that will benefit them in their post-school lives. If AT is included in the transition section portion of their IEPs and used to support their measurable postsecondary goals, students with disabilities will be more prepared for success when they move on to the next phase of life. Join us as we discuss the critical role Assistive Technology plays in that transition from high school to adulthood for students with Complex Support Needs.

Incorporating Manual Therapy for Post-concussion Headache and Neck Pain - Live Webinar
2022-04-18 17:00 - 19:00
Course Description
Concussion trauma may create lingering pain, somatic and cognitive impairment for days to years post-injury. Over 1.5 to 3.8 million people suffer from concussions in the US, according to the CDC. Post-traumatic headache (PTH) and whiplash associated disorders (WAD) are typical symptoms after accidents. The resultant pain, cognitive fog, hypersensitivity, spasm, stiffness, dizziness, visual and vestibular motor disorders and even nausea or vomiting can be debilitating. Symptoms may interfere with sleep and contribute to anxiety, irritability and depression. Evidence indicates the contribution of craniocervical myofascial tension and trigger points (TPs) to the persistent symptoms of PTH. Manual therapy to address abnormal fascial tension and TPs is a key component in the management of PCH and WAD.
Interventions including myofascial release/soft tissue mobilization, massage, acupressure, positional release, muscle energy and craniosacral therapy have been shown to effectively address the neuromusculoskeletal irritation and mobility impairments that characterize PTH. Discover easy methods of soft tissue release you can apply immediately in your practice in this demonstration intensive course. Discuss the evidence basis for incorporating manual therapy in a comprehensive plan of care to help people with PTH to live more healthy productive lives.
Course Objectives
At the end of this course, the participant will be able to:

Define post-concussion syndrome and its relationship to post-traumatic headaches (PTH).
Demonstrate 5 manual therapy interventions to manage PTH.
Discuss the evidence for manual therapy interventions for improving outcomes for people with PTH.

Trauma-Informed CBT for Children & Adolescents: A Clinical Playbook for Integrating Structure with Client-Centered Flexibility - Live Webinar
2022-04-29 06:00 - 14:00
Sometimes we struggle to balance individual kids’ needs with implementing evidence based care.
We know evidence-based treatment is an important goal, but statistics and research only go so far if the intervention isn’t the right fit for the child in the room.

Dr. Amy Marschall, psychologist certified in TF-CBT and expert in evidence-based care for children and adolescents, will teach you how to balance the structure of CBT and the flexibility of a trauma-informed approach, in a way that meets each child’s unique needs.
