SUMMARY:Balancing Acts: Effective and Compassionate Mental Health Care for Families
DESCRIPTION:Providing Family Therapy can be an intimidating prospect for even seasoned counselors and therapists. Counselors and mental health practitioners must walk the tightrope of joining with each family member while avoiding triangulation or an overfocus on the identified client. Yet\, Family Therapy offers tools for change that may prove more effective than individual therapy alone for many clinical presentations. This workshop will encourage and empower clinicians of all backgrounds and experience levels to engage families and couples in treatment. We will examine the primary principles of Family Systems Theory and discuss brief interventions that practitioners can use to begin working with families. \nAt the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe the primary principles and interventions of Family Systems Theory\n\n\nUnderstand the influence of Family Systems Theory on mental health symptomology and treatment\nExamine the primary tasks and strategies of family systems and how these tasks and strategies perpetuate through the generations\nImplement key skills and interventions for effectively working with families in their counseling or therapeutic practice\n\nRegister Here!\nCost: $25 \nLocation: Mustang Room (first floor) \nSeats are limited. Please ensure you are registered no later than Friday\, October 11th to secure your spot. Breakfast snacks will be provided. \nPlease be sure to review our policy and procedure for any questions regarding cancellations\, refunds and confidentiality. \nContinuing Education Hours: \nLPCs Earn 3 CE (Continuing Education) hours\n \n  \n  \n___________________________________________________________________ \nSpeaker: Andrew Ahles\, LMFT-S\, Clinical Training Manager\, Metrocare \nAndrew Ahles\, LMFT-S has worked for over a decade as a Marriage and Family Therapist in both outpatient and inpatient treatment settings to provide compassionate and effective therapy to individuals and families suffering from severe mental illness and addiction.
