Description

Ethics & Sleep Disturbance CBT 9:00am-12:00pm Working with “Unlikeable” Clients, Service Termination, and Other Common, but Rarely Discussed, Ethical Concerns Jeremy Nikel, LCSW and Tina Ryker-Bevans, LCSW We’ve all had that one client that was just not “likeable”. We all get frustrated when a client is “non-compliant”. We’ve all questioned “When is it appropriate to end services?”. We’ve all had questions on billing, switching therapeutic focus, and defining our scope of practice. Yet, these issues are rarely addressed directly in ethical workshops. This workshop will focus on these and other common concerns, what our professional ethics say about them, and discuss Motivational Interviewing and other techniques to ethically address them. 1:00pm-4:00pm Can’t Sleep? Practical Considerations for Clinicians Working with Sleep Disturbances River Smith, PhD This 3-hour workshop is intended to improve clinical competency in the area of sleep behavior assessment and intervention. Specifically, common sleep disorders and DSM 5 diagnostic criteria will be reviewed along with common screening tools for use in clinical care. Participants will also be introduced to the basics of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia and its utility in mental health treatment. Whether patients present with insomnia as a primary or secondary concern, clinicians will be prepared to assess, provide practical solutions for acute insomnia and treatment recommendations for chronic insomnia.
