Objectives:
Evaluate the biological nature of trauma and how trauma is stored in the body and limbic system, creating physical and psychological symptoms to better understand your clients. Differentiate between sympathetic (activated) freeze response and the parasympathetic (deactivated) dorsal vagal immobilization response your clients experience. Distinguish between the following types of traumatic stress: normal, prolonged, complex and developmental and articulate treatment considerations for each. Ascertain the clinical implications of traumatic stress symptomology, including hyperarousal, affect dysregulation, dissociation, body memories, and flashbacks. Employ effective somatic techniques to reduce/eliminate client’s body memories, “flashbacks” and dissociation. Summarize the landmark study: Adverse Childhood Experiences Study and understand the ten adverse childhood experiences studied as they related to clinical diagnosis and assessment. Evaluate the clinical presentation of the following attachment styles as it relates to your clinical assessment: secure vs insecure; insecure; organized vs insecure disorganized. Designate two different treatment strategies, once attachment style has been ascertained, based on your clients’ attachment style. Demonstrate strategies to help clients build skills to be prepared to process trauma via EMDR, including safety within the therapeutic alliance and skills for self-regulation. Determine when/if your client is prepared to safely process trauma memories via EMDR. Create and employ client-driven imagery for safety and containment during trauma processing. Utilize clinical techniques to help with grounding and centering traumatized clients in-session. Prepare clients with various trauma tools; mindfulness, guided imagery and meridian-based techniques to decrease client’s arousal levels and modulate affect.
Analyze and critique the original eight phases of EMDR’s standard protocol (Shapiro) as it relates to clinical treatment. Determine Parnell’s four essential elements of each EMDR session and how it relates to client treatment. Practice under supervision Parnell’s Modified EMDR protocol to prepare for work with your clients in-session. Practice under supervision the skill for resourcing a client with imaginal resources prior to processing traumatic material. Practice under supervision the trauma processing modality and EDMR tools for processing traumatic memories with your clients. Utilize and practice two “cues for safety” with your clients based on Steve Porges’ Polyvagal Theory.
"“I’m too fat.” “I’m on a diet.” “Today is a cheat day.” Once I lose weight, I’ll be happier.” ... more“My eating is out of control.”
This kind of language runs rampant in our society and has no doubt made its way to your office. Clients who struggle with weight and food issues get caught in a vortex of shame, preoccupation and hopelessness. Trapped between the rigidity of dieting and the chaos of overeating, every day can be an emotional battle that may exacerbate or even result in low self-worth, eating disorders, anxiety or depression.
Treatment of these issues is more than a matter of weight loss or self-control. In fact, many times these very interventions do more harm than good!
Join Judith Matz as she shows you how to help your clients identify the shame that is woven into the diet-binge cycle, challenge unhelpful thoughts and feelings, and repair dysfunctional relationships with food – no willpower necessary!
Packed with practical tips and backed by research, this comprehensive 1 day seminar will teach you how to:
Identify issues related to food, weight and body image in your very first session Utilize CBT, mindfulness and attuned eating strategies to transform shame into empowerment Discover personal bias and attitudes that may be counterproductive to the therapeutic process Help clients develop a healthy framework that ends out of control eating and is not subject to fad diets Learn why clients get stuck in the diet/binge cycle and how to finally break it
Objectives:
Articulate different clinical presentations regarding emotional eating, Binge Eating Disorder, disordered eating and weight concerns. Examine the impact of diet culture on disordered eating patterns and body image issues that present in clinical treatment. Teach clients how to implement the three essential steps of attuned eating to replace disordered eating patterns, including binge eating. Provide psychoeducation for clients regarding the process of translating emotional issues into eating and weight loss focus that results in shame. Implement strategies to help clients regulate emotional distress without turning to food and to cultivate a positive body image. Identify the impact of personal bias and weight stigma on clients both within and outside of the treatment setting. Examine the body of research related to the Health At Every Size framework as it relates to weight and health, and promoting positive, sustainable behaviors.
The client whose problems meet the DSM-5® criteria for a Personality Disorder can be the most difficult client in your caseload to treat. They may require ... moremore time in therapy, more energy and involvement on your part, experience a greater number of life crises, and create more upset with their family, work, and social systems than virtually any other diagnostic group. Often being “sent” for therapy rather than choosing therapy, their motivation for change may be limited and their personality disorder is likely co-morbid with other exacerbating disorders.
Join Gregory W. Lester, PhD, and take home an integrated approach for working with these challenging clients.
Complete this workshop and learn new clinical skills, interventions, and principles to help your clients cope with the challenges of recovering from trauma. Throughout the workshop ... moretrauma specialist, Michael S. Prokop, will discuss and integrate the “active ingredients” for “healing trauma” as they are utilized within the Three Stage Consensus Model. Attend and be able to: Use dozens of practical assessment, diagnosis and intervention strategies Effectively work with children, adolescents and adults dealing with trauma issues Implement multisensory interventions to treat the whole person You will be able to implement evidence-based treatment protocols for establishing safety, desensitizing and reprocessing trauma memories, as well as, resolving/reprocessing complicated grief. With these new skills, you will be able to assist your clients in their journey as they “restructure a victim mentality to form a proactive survivor identity.” With this new identity, you will be able to help clients reconnect to self, family, society and dreams!
Many continuing education ethics programs are generic in nature. Many continuing education ethics programs stress risk management strategies to the detriment of the attendees, especially ... moreif an attorney presenter is involved.
This program is different. Rather than avoiding clinical issues, this program explores the manner by which clinical and ethical issues affect the everyday practice of the mental health professional in Delaware. This unique blend of clinical and ethical concerns allows for a more meaningful understanding and interpretation of the rules that govern mental health practice.
These goals are reached through the experience and the interactive style of the presenter, Allan M. Tepper, J.D., Psy.D. Different from other individuals who possess joint degrees in psychology and law, Dr. Tepper actually maintains an active psychology practice and an active law practice. He functions as a clinician, and he represents mental health professionals who experience legal difficulties. In this regard, Dr. Tepper brings an extremely unique perspective in the practical understanding of ethics.
These goals also are reached through the manual utilized in the seminar. The manual materials are not generic in nature. All of the written materials are state specific to Delaware.
When interacting with an attorney, it sometimes is difficult to hear the words, “Trust me.” For this seminar, however, we do say “Trust us!” We guarantee you won’t walk away disappointed.
Objectives:
Specify state and administrative laws that impact clinical practice. Determine the ethical and legal principle of informed consent. Determine the notes, documents, reports, forms, and clinical data that constitute the record. Evaluate record-keeping practices. Analyze how to comply with third-party requests for records. Establish the consent necessary to treat minors and release records of minors.
"Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) has evolved from the go-to treatment for borderline personality disorder to one of the most recognized and sought after therapies for a variety ... moreof difficult to treat client problems. The increasing pressure to adopt treatments that work makes DBT skills and strategies a must-have for all types of therapists. For those who feel that pressure but fear becoming a “manual manic”, relax. Dr. Lane Pederson teaches how to follow the manual yet make thoughtful customizations consistent with evidence-based practices and always grounded in the therapeutic alliance. Covering DBT from theory to clinical application, including the use of diary cards, behavioral analysis, contingency management, and multi-layered validation, this certificate course welcomes those implementing DBT in standard and adapted ways as well as those wishing to simply add DBT skills and techniques to their eclectic or integrative style. If you have felt limited or stuck with your therapy skills or ready to give up on certain clients, this certificate course will breathe new life into your work. You will leave ready to use the essentials of DBT listed above as well as skills from the Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness Modules with your clients, enjoying new confidence in and effectiveness with your clinical skill set."

After decades of clinical innovation and recent scientific research, the empirically validated Internal Family Systems (IFS) model has been shown to be effective at improving ... moreclients’ general functioning and well-being. This effective model provides clinicians with procedures for helping clients with the most challenging mental health profiles to heal the wounded, burdened, and traumatized parts of their systems.
The IFS model provides a compassionate, respectful, non-pathologizing approach to understanding the organization and functioning of the human psyche.
The transformative IFS approach embraces and celebrates the natural multiplicity of the mind. Its assumption is that every part of the system has good intention and valuable resources allows clinicians to approach even the most troubling of “symptoms” with compassion and respect. IFS offers therapists a powerful and effective set of tools for empowering clients with a wide range of clinical profiles to heal the wounded and burdened parts of their internal systems, resulting in:
a way to enter clients’ inner ecology without the overemphasis on containment and stabilization symptom reduction and improved functioning for clients deep self-healing within even the most troubled clients
IFS is a powerful treatment modality. Once you experience it, you will want to incorporate it into your practice.
Through instruction, video demonstration, and experiential exercises, Alexia D. Rothman, Ph.D., Certified IFS therapist and colleague of Dr. Richard Schwartz (founder of IFS) will show you step-by-step how to apply the most effective, empirically validated IFS interventions to help your clients connect with and understand their conflicting parts to facilitate deep, lasting healing.
