Description

The current political and cultural context is highly polarized and fraught with tension and mistrust. In this context psychologists commonly find it challenging to navigate the political and ideological differences that arise in their daily work. Drs. Wise and Cuper will provide an overview of relevant ethical and clinical principles, including the importance of incorporating effective therapist self-care strategies. A multi-faceted model of ethical decision making will be presented that incorporates emotional, interpersonal and contextual factors. This framework will be used to inform an interactive consideration of complex clinical vignettes. Participants will be encouraged to share their own experiences and strategies. This course is 3 hours long, plus a 15-minute break for the live session (the live session runs from 12-3:15pm ET).

Upcoming webinars are offered live ("Live Webinar" component) and archived ("Archived Webinar" component) for CE.

Description

Presented in collaboration with the Canadian Register of Health Service Psychologists

Couples come into therapy to address challenges and conflicts in their relationships. Underlying these challenges and conflicts, deficits in emotion regulation capacities are often present. For many couples, engaging in the day to day navigation of couple life becomes painful and distressing in part due to struggles to regulate overwhelming and intolerable emotions that interfere with their ability to work through and resolve conflicts. These are more exaggerated and severe for trauma impacted couples. Developmental Couple Therapy for Complex Trauma (DCTCT) is an evidence based approach to couple therapy for trauma impacted couples that places emphasis on the development of emotion regulation capacities as one avenue for the resolution of relationship distress. Participation in this workshop participants will have the opportunity to gain a greater understanding of the role of emotion regulation difficulties in the development and maintenance of couple distress and how focus on building emotion regulation capacities can help couples benefit from the therapeutic process and grow into a couple that can engage in the normal challenges and conflicts of daily relational life with flexibility, creativity, and resilience.

Description

Technology can have a significant impact on sleep and circadian rhythms, yet it also presents opportunities to improve the delivery of evidence-based treatments for sleep disorders. Drs.

Their discussion will incorporate historical, scientific, and practical perspectives on these topics. This course is 3 hours long, plus a 15-minute break for the live session.

Abstract

Rural trans and nonbinary (TNB) youth face a paradoxical mental health challenge. They increasingly must rely on social media for support and community, but online forums pose a significant risk to young people's mental health and social well-being. The broad accessibility, user anonymity, and group dynamics on social media tend to amplify bullying and violent speech. The authors examine the clinical and ethical challenges rural mental health providers (MHPs) face, such as navigating complex, ever-increasing state and federal laws and policies affecting TNB youth; operating as specialists in service deserts; and balancing ethical obligations with client safety. We propose a therapy intervention model called Digital Literacy for Resistance (DLR) that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools with digital literacy strategies to empower rural TNB youth and their families.
