"Providing Effective Therapy to Clients with Autism"

Presented by: 

Haleigh Scott, PhD

Friday, March 5, 2021

10:30 am - 1:45 pm
Zoom Webinar
3 CEs

Course Description         

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a diagnosis that has gained increased attention over the past few decades, largely due to the rapid increase in cases. According the latest CDC numbers, 1 in 54 children has an ASD diagnosis. This is a lot of children and adults that need services! While many people think that people with ASD only need disability specific care, such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), nothing could be further from the truth. Children and adults with ASD have high rates of co-occurring mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

Unfortunately, people with ASD face barriers in accessing the mental health care that they need for these conditions. While there are many complex reasons that people with ASD struggle to obtain needed care, one component of this problem is that mental health care providers often feel they are not qualified to treat these clients. In this presentation participants will learn about ASD, debunk common myths about people with ASD and therapy, and begin to build the confidence and competence to provide essential mental health care to this population.

1. Evaluate current practices and beliefs surrounding providing treatment to people with autism.

2. Understand the important role of community mental health providers in supporting people with autism.

3. Create a plan for building institutional or personal capacity to provide mental health treatment for people with autism.

"Winnocott Goes Viral:

A Look at Early Relationships Through Viral Videos"

Presented by: 

Orit Weksler, LMFT

• Friday, April 2, 2021
• 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
• Zoom Webinar
• 2 CEUs

Course Description         

What makes our early experiences meaningful and useful? What helps us know ourselves and make sense of the world? Using viral videos from the early days of YouTube, we will attempt to answer these questions using Winnicott’s ideas about “The Full Experience”; “Personal Gestures”; “A Holding Environment” and Transitional Space”. We will think about attachment, metallization, play and discuss ideas about rhythm, knowledge and the importance of pausing in an interactive and fun training.

1. Know about Winnicott's concepts of "The full experience", "Transitional space", "Holding environment".

2. Understand the relationship between "rhythm", "knowledge" and "pause" in creating a transitional space that allows for growth and creativity.

3. Experience a "holding environment" in the presentation itself and reflect on how to use this experience in their clinical work.
