Questions about managing confidentiality and consent responsibly with minor clients, others unable to give informed consent, or with families is a common worry of therapists. Trust is the cornerstone of therapy, but what happens to trust when other individuals seek or have access to client disclosures? Recent Board rule changes will also be reviewed. This workshop provides practical models for ethical responses in these situations, based on the ethical standards of the professions and the work of ethics scholars. Numerous case examples will be provided.

Trauma and stress are at times unavoidable. Critical incidents have the potential to create significant human distress and can overwhelm one’s usual coping mechanisms. The nature of one’s profession can put him or her in direct contact with very stressful events. Such events take a toll on the human psyche, the workplace, and the community. By learning how to effectively intervene when a crisis occurs, we can work to stabilize a situation, restore a sense of balance, and create future pathways to help people maintain and/or create resiliency. This class is essential for any professional who works with trauma and stress related illnesses.

Do you know the bullies, victims and bystanders? Each of these roles can have life-changing effects. How do counselors, social workers, and psychologists get to the core issues when there is such a code of silence and often, a long history of bullying? Suggestions for individual, group and school-wide programs and activities will be discussed and demonstrated, along with assurance that even the smallest interventions can be powerful. There will be a display of books with student and facilitator/educator bibliographies.

This workshop is unique on a variety of levels and will provide participants with cognitive and experiential exposure to Gestalt theory as it relates to personal and professional growth. The facilitator will support participants in engaging with one another in an ongoing and spontaneous interpersonal process that gives close attention to physical, emotional, and cognitive processes, with the primary goal being to increase awareness of self and self-in-relationship to others. Participants can expect several Gestalt-centered activities that will stimulate and foster awareness, support participants in exploring trust-issues, interpersonal dynamics and the various patterns of relatedness members use outside of the group context. A primary hope is that people can learn more satisfying and meaningful ways of relating to themselves and to others through experiment and completing incomplete Gestalts.

You do not need to have an understanding of Gestalt theory, but the workshop is primarily geared toward mental health professionals and school counselors and educators. The basic tenets of Gestalt theory as it relates to self-awareness and relationship will be discussed and experienced through enhanced personal interactions over the course of this seven-hour group experience. Attention will be paid to group dynamics and the processes used by group members to relate to others, to the group-as-a-whole, and to themselves. The facilitators will aid participants by paying attention to both the content (“What is actually being said”) and the processes (“What is not being verbalized”) that unfold in the group as members spend time discussing their goals for attendance and relating to one another.

Participants will be able to make meaningful psychological contact with others and receive feedback about themselves, supporting development. Members can also expect to experience greater authenticity and integrity in their personal and professional lives as a result of participating in this unique group environment. Past group members have revealed that attendance in a growth group such as this elicited power life-changing transformation, insights into self and how people relate to others in their lives, and increased courage to manage challenges or the daily tasks of life differently.

Due to the lengthy nature of the group experience, participants will have opportunities for alone time and time to socialize and get to know others in a relaxed and comfortable manner. Come prepared to have fun, to learn about yourself, to be creative, and to experiment with new ways of behaving and connecting to others.
