This includes looking at the vital elements within a solid working alliance and the ways in which the relationship may help to facilitate connection and change as treatment progresses. Finally, the presentation will discuss ways to navigate rupture and repair and the importance of attuning to self-of-the therapist in this work.
Learning Objectives for the Training:
1) Identify the empirical support of the therapeutic relationship.
2) Name important elements of an effective therapeutic relationship.
3) Participants will be able to identify important elements of the therapeutic relationship throughout the course of treatment.

May CEU: Red Flag Gun Law: Duties
We will examine this expansion in duties as well as the companion duty to advise law enforcement as regards whether the client should lose access to a firearm. Some key issues will include ethical decision-making, risks of taking action, thresholds for breaching confidentiality, and the construction of client information informing them of the limits of privacy. One of the challenges in such situations is the slippery slope as regards inquiry about firearms and the danger of slipping into an investigative role that is not consistent with clinical focus on the client.

We get it. It can be confusing. Right now this is the easiest way for our volunteers to manage these events and provide monthly events for you! We have been trying our best with the budget and resources we have. We would love any ideas or constructive feedback on how to make this better as we are all trying to figure this out too!
