You are invited to attend Indianapolis' first Master Clinician Workshop on Schema Therapy: A Breakthrough Treatment for Challenging Disorders and Trauma

This exciting three-day workshop presents the model and interventions of Schema Therapy (ST), a breakthrough in the treatment of challenging disorders and trauma, including Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). ST is a unique integrative approach to psychotherapy with roots in cognitive therapy, learning theory, and the research of developmental psychology. The individual ST model developed by Jeffrey Young, PhD and the Group ST (GST) model developed by Joan Farrell, PhD and Ida Shaw, MA will be presented. ST has a growing evidence base that demonstrates significant positive effects in reducing BPD symptoms and increasing functioning and quality of life in both individual and group modalities. In addition, it is currently being tested as a treatment for Cluster C personality disorders, forensic populations, eating disorders and PTSD (including combat veterans).

AAS-SPRC

This event is sponsored by IPA, the American Association of Suicidology, and the Suicide Prevention Resource Center.

Suicidal behavior is a major cause of death and disability in the United States.  A significant proportion of people who die by suicide have had recent contact with a mental health professional, but many providers are inadequately trained to assess, treat, and manage suicidal patients or clients.

Assessing and Managing Suicide Risk (AMSR) was designed to teach essential core competencies that meet the needs of psychologists, licensed counselors, social workers, and employee assistance professionals.  This one-day workshop focuses on assessing suicide risk, planning treatment, and managing the ongoing care of the at-risk client.

This workshop includes pre-workshop reading materials; 6 ½ hours of training, comprised of an engaging mix of lecture and exercises; participant manual, including an extensive bibliography and resources for assessments and crisis management plans; multiple video segments featuring David Jobes, PhD demonstrating key competencies; journaling throughout the day; and time for discussion.
