Dealing with issues of narcissism in the intimate relationship poses an additional challenge in the treatment room, where the narcissist’s typical approval seeking, entitled, controlling, “victim/martyr”, and passive-aggressive reactions and behaviors, are often paired with a partner who becomes burdened by the newly awakened or reawakened challenges of self- doubt, self-diminishment, subjugation, and self-sacrifice.
Narcissists are notorious for their denial, defensiveness, devaluation, and defiantly detached reactions when confronted about betraying, controlling, and gaslighting behaviors, along with other hurtful patterns that arise in their intimate relationship. Restoring trust and intimacy can seem like an overwhelming and insurmountable endeavor. The stakes are high. Weighing the consequences of staying with or leaving the narcissist can be complex. The impact on financial security and the well-being of children, as well as the offended partner’s health and wellness are often the collateral damage of long-term coercive control and gaslighting. The looming question: Is it even possible to heal trust after narcissistically driven betrayal, gaslighting, and
coercive control?
Schema therapy offers an effective conceptualization and treatment protocol; one that does not insist on exclusive conjoint work. This approach appreciates the fragility (and possible unsafety) of high stakes relationships and the need for a flexible approach, where individual treatment and conjoint treatment are part of a carefully timed and integrated plan. At the center of the work is the need to deconstruct a toxic narrative that has deleterious effects on the relationship, the family, and perhaps continues to perpetuate a perilous legacy for generations.

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.

Suicide prevention and treatment has historically been taught through an oppressive and fear-based crisis intervention lens. However, creating safety for the client isn’t only about access to means and hospitalization. In order to better support our clients with thoughts of suicide and self-harm, we have to also consider the sense of safety we are providing for the client and helping them build within themselves. This course is designed to foster top – down and bottom-up skills for supporting suicidal clients that center connection, autonomy, empowerment, and prevent further harm.

Chronic pain is more than a physical experience—it affects emotional and psychological well-being as well. In this workshop, therapists will explore the profound impact of chronic pain and how it intersects with co-morbid psychological conditions such as anxiety and depression. Participants will gain valuable insights into the brain-body connection, focusing on the brain’s role in pain perception and the influence of emotional and psychological factors. Therapists will also learn to distinguish between structural and neural circuit-related pain and be introduced to evidence-based interventions, including Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), for treating chronic pain in their clients.
This workshop goes beyond theory, offering practical tools and strategies that therapists can implement immediately in their practice. Through case studies, experiential exercises, and group discussions, participants will learn how to tailor pain management approaches that address both the physical and psychological needs of their clients. The integration of various therapeutic modalities will empower therapists to provide holistic care, choosing the most effective interventions for clients with chronic pain and related psychological conditions. By the end, participants will be equipped to enhance their clients’ quality of life through a comprehensive, mind-body approach to pain treatment.

There are quite a few therapy approaches with a lot of clout in the evidence-based category, especially as paired with the treatment of certain disorders. But few pack the punch that ERP packs for the treatment of OCD and anxiety disorders. If you treat OCD or other stubborn, treatment resistant anxiety, ERP is a must-have tool you’ll need to master if you desire effective outcomes with those clients tortured by persistent obsessions, compulsions, or anxious thoughts.
Join this full day intensive on Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, designed to blend foundational theory with practical tools you can immediately apply in your work with clients. ERP is the gold-standard, evidence-based treatment for OCD and is equally effective for treating anxiety disorders.
We’ll begin with an overview of OCD—serving as an introduction for some and a refresher for others—before diving into ERP: what it is, how it works, and why it’s so effective for many people. Join us for a dynamic learning experience to enhance your clinical skills with ERP.
