Live – ADHD Uncovered: Addressing Its Ripple Effects Through a Trauma-Informed Lens

Live – ADHD Uncovered: Addressing Its Ripple Effects Through a Trauma-Informed Lens

This course takes a deep dive into ADHD, going beyond the common behavioral profiles and approaches we are all familiar with. Looking at the “ripple effect” of ADHD, we’ll explore a more holistic, strengths-based conceptualization of having a uniquely-wired brain – and the impact of operating it in a neurotypical world without a user’s manual.

Moving beyond symptoms and behaviors, this training will look at the neurobiological differences and the developmental impact of ADHD, and the connection between ADHD and trauma. This deeper look at ADHD will inform how symptoms “ripple” out into daily functioning, relationships, identity development and mental health. We’ll review trauma-informed treatment for addressing the ripple effects rather than just the behaviors associated with ADHD, and guiding clients towards using their ADHD superpowers to heal from painful experiences, learn to self-regulate, and tap into their full potential. Participants will come away with specific assessment and treatment strategies to promote greater understanding, motivation, empowerment, and resilience for ADHD clients.

Live – Certificate in Advanced EMDR Therapy Skills: Winter 2024-2025 Cohort

Live – Certificate in Advanced EMDR Therapy Skills: Winter 2024-2025 Cohort

**This is a special 6-day, 30.5-CE interactive and didactic certification program resulting in a certified EMDRPT-II® credential through Mind Works Professional Education, Inc. **

This program provides continuing education, not higher education (i.e. it is not meant to replace a graduate degree and the rigorous educational requirements of initial licensure). The length of this program, objectives, and requirements for certification have been designed accordingly.

Our EMDR programs and associated credentials are exclusively affiliated with and available through Mind Works Professional Education, Inc. and Online CE Credits. EMDR certification is provided by various entities across the US and abroad, but continuing education certification is not regulated nor owned by any one particular education provider, association, or broker. Individual state regulatory authorities solely determine scope, competency, and legal right to practice, as is true for any other therapy modality (CBT, DBT, etc.). To determine the quality and legitimacy of your investment, we encourage you to look at the experience and education level of your trainer, cost of the program, ongoing requirements if there are any, quality level of the learning platform, and established reputation of the education provider.

IMPORTANT: This exclusive, live certification program takes place during a 6-day non-contiguous period in January 2025 – ***view Program Schedule here.

 

  • ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENT FOR CERTIFICATION:

    To receive your EMDRPT-II® live cohort certification credential, you MUST register and pay for at least 2 upcoming live one-hour consultations or practice labs with your trainer Dr. Jennifer Sweeton, to take place in January and/or February 2025. You may register now from our Live Consultations page here.

 

EMDR is a set of evidence-based, powerful tools available to clinicians who treat psychological trauma and PTSD, as well as other mental health conditions. While EMDR skills have been popular for many years, comprehensive expert-quality training in these skills can be difficult to find and is often cost-prohibitive (i.e. some EMDR training companies charge $10K-$15K for comprehensive advanced level certification, plus ongoing renewal fees and “supervision” requirements).

In this 6-day advanced level comprehensive EMDR training program, you will review in detail the classic 8-phase model of EMDR before progressing into more advanced modifications and adaptations for other populations, modalities, and co-occurring mental health concerns (e.g. adapting EMDR for telehealth, addiction, anxiety, depression, and for your work with children and minority identity individuals). Your instructor, Stanford-trained neuroscientist and trauma psychologist Dr. Jennifer Sweeton, will break down the mechanisms of EMDR. She’ll demonstrate how it engages the thinking, feeling, and primitive areas of the brain, effectively translating EMDR into a powerful set of tools you’ll be confident and excited to use with your clients. Her program curriculum establishes a firm core foundation of classic EMDR that will allow you to both DO it well and understand how it works and why it works. Research shows that clinicians who understand why and how a therapy works are more likely to experience better client outcomes. This is unique to Dr. Sweeton’s teaching style, and her progression from a solid base to more advanced concepts enables you to be more flexible in how you approach trauma treatment with EMDR – truly a standard bearer in modern EMDR practice. This live, interactive, webinar-based program will require participants to engage in practical application through case studies, Q&A, client demonstrations, and consultation/practice labs.

 

 

DISCLAIMER: To minimize excessive transactional burden, if you request to be converted to an “Everything Plan” membership AFTER purchasing this certification program, you may do so only within 48 hours of your registration on a 24 month plan, paid in advance at the prevailing annual rate.

Live – Trauma-Focused CBT for Children & Adolescents: A to Z Tools, Techniques, & Case Studies

**This is a special 2-day, 12-CE webinar event.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is an evidence-based and short-term, structured therapy approach for traumatized children and their caregivers. It has been refined for maximum effective outcomes over the span of 30 years, uniquely actively involving caregivers in the recovery and healing process. TF-CBT is structured, yet flexible. It is adaptive and comprehensive, focusing equally on intervention and the teaching of coping skills and emotion regulation.

This workshop will provide an overview of Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and will discuss how to provide TF-CBT to children and adolescents who have experienced trauma. Experiential exercises, case examples, and multimedia will be used to provide applied, practical, clinical learning. The theory, model, and trauma-focused skills of TF-CBT will be presented and applied to clinical cases. Each of the PRACTICE components of TF-CBT will be discussed: Psychoeducation, Parenting Skills for Caregivers, Relaxation, Affect Identification and Regulation, Cognitive Coping, Trauma Narration and Processing, In-Vivo Mastery, Conjoint Child-Parent Sessions, and Enhancing Safety and Future Development.

The primary focus of this training is on how to provide TF-CBT in a flexible, responsive, and individualized manner to children and adolescents struggling with trauma and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.

Live – Exposure’s Not The Only Way: Inference-Based CBT for OCD: Tools & Techniques

Live – Exposure’s Not The Only Way: Inference-Based CBT for OCD: Tools & Techniques

The idea of exposure-based therapy can be daunting for some clients suffering from crippling OCD. While ERP is the most well-known prescription for OCD, currently it is not the only evidence-based modality that is designed to tackle OCD. In fact, other options exist that do not rely on the exposure element for a successful treatment outcome. For many, I-CBT gets the job done as a stand-alone approach, backed by strong evidence of enduring positive outcomes in the face of OCD’s most challenging symptomatology.

Join us as we learn the ins and outs of Inference-Based Cognitive Behavior Therapy (I-CBT), a non-exposure based modality for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Using a very down-to-earth and accessible teaching style, this course is designed for therapists who come in with an with an existing framework for understanding and treating (OCD). While exposure and response prevention (ERP) is another wonderful tool in treating OCD, our toolboxes for treatment should be as varied as the individuals we serve. Join us as we take a deep dive into the mechanisms of change that make I-CBT such a wonderfully healing tool.
