Working With Clients Who Self-Injure: Person-Centered Recommendations

Description

Presented by the National Register in collaboration with the Canadian Register of Health Service Psychologists. French translation coming soon.

Informed by a growing line of research giving voice to lived experience perspectives, the current webinar will articulate a person-centred approach with which to understand self-injury. This will involve recommendations for building rapport with clients and ways to ask about their experiences with self-injury. Also presented will be a novel person-centred framework of self-injury recovery. Components from this framework will be discussed with attention to how they can be woven into one’s work. In doing so, webinar attendees will be better positioned to foster recovery when working alongside clients who self-injure.
