SUMMARY:The Relational Psychoanalytic Sensibility
DESCRIPTION:Live Interactive Webinar \nInstructor: Yvette Esprey\, M.A.\, Ph.D. \nLevel: Intermediate \nCEs: 3 \nReview CE accreditation and approvals for this course on tab above. \nThis interactive webinar offers an introduction and deepening discussion around the relational turn which has gained momentum in psychoanalytic thinking and practice over the last four decades. Unpacking the integrative theoretical origins of the paradigm\, the workshop will focus on some of the key principles which inform and scaffold relational clinical practice and supervision. The workshop begins by tracing the origins of the relational tradition\, highlighting its integrative foundations in which can be found the influences of object relations and interpersonal as well as sociological theories. The workshop will spotlight some of the core tenets of the relational frame. In particular\, and drawing on clinical and supervisory vignettes\, we will explore notions of co-construction in the therapeutic relationship\, non-neutrality and the subjectivity of the therapist\, thirdness\, multiple self-states\, social-constructionism and the significance of the social context against which the encounter unfolds. In discussing these central principles\, the relevance of a relational sensibility to the field of clinical social work will be emphasized. \nThe workshop will close with a discussion of the potential of relational thinking and practice to contribute to social justice imperatives\, linking relationality to feminist theory\, queer theory\, critical race theory and positing its potential activism role within the socio-political movements which define our contemporary times. The workshop will consider the contribution which relational psychoanalytic work can make to the social justice issues of our time\, and how relationally-oriented therapists can participate in social activism through the clinical encounter.

SUMMARY:De-centering\, Disrupting and Deconstructing Whiteness in Social Work Settings
DESCRIPTION:Live Interactive Webinar \nInstructor: Shari L. Robinson\, M.S.W.\, ACSW \nLevel: Intermediate \nCEs: 3 \nReview CE accreditation and approvals for this course on tab above. \nIn this interactive virtual workshop\, participants will\, first\, receive a historical review of the role and formation of whiteness in the social work profession. Next\, attendees will be guided through an experience meant to reflect upon the role of whiteness\, white norms and white habits in their personal and professional lives and how to de-center\, disrupt and deconstruct whiteness. Finally\, there will be an exploration of skill-based practices on noticing when whiteness permeates practices and how best to work alongside the systemic challenges of whiteness in clinical settings. \nAs whiteness permeates all of us\, this workshop is not limited to clinicians racialized and/or identified as white. However\, this workshop will best be received by clinicians with some introductory understanding and experience around whiteness. So\, already have an introductory understanding of whiteness and want to dig deeper? Join us!

SUMMARY:Navigating Clinical Racial Dynamics as a Multiracial Therapist
DESCRIPTION:Live Interactive Webinar \nInstructor: Sarah Yang Mumma\, Ph.D.\, LCSW \nLevel: Intermediate \nCEs: 1.5 \nReview CE accreditation and approvals for this course on tab above. \nThis webinar will be recorded. \nA vital aspect of clinical social work education and professional development is engaging with literature that explores the clinical experiences of therapists that hold similar social identities to oneself. The therapist’s experiences of clinical process\, including as it relates to their social identities\, has been the subject of clinical literature. There is empirical research and case studies examining the clinical experiences of white therapists and\, to a lesser extent\, therapists of color; however\, there is limited literature focused on the clinical experiences of multiracial therapists. Having oneself reflected in clinical literature is vital to the professional development of multiracial therapists as they grapple with how their multiracialness emerges and contributes to racial dynamics within the clinical dyad. Careful exploration of countertransference reactions and clinical processes benefit from accessing research on the experiences of other multiracial therapists. For monoracial supervisors supervising multiracial therapists\, knowledge of common experiences of multiracial therapists can improve the quality of supervision they provide. \nThis course draws from empirical research to address common racial dynamics within the multiracial therapist and client dyad. It will explore how multiracial therapists experience\, understand\, and navigate racial dynamics in psychotherapy with diverse clients. It will provide information on common racial clinical experiences multiracial therapists have including racial coding\, countertransference\, therapists use of own race and disclosure. The exploration of these themes is not isolated to the clinical room and acknowledges the impact of broader socio-political context. A composite case study drawn from the instructor’s clinical work will be used to deepen exploration and understanding of these themes. Applying this information to clinical supervision will also be addressed.

SUMMARY:Long COVID-19 & Mental Health: Emerging Research and Implications for Practice
DESCRIPTION:Live Interactive Webinar \nInstructor: Ellie Lipton\, M.S.W.\, LCSW\, LICSW \nFebruary 2\, 2024\, 1 – 4:15 p.m. ET \nLevel: Intermediate \nCEs: 3 \nReview CE accreditation and approvals for this course on tab above. \nThe CDC estimates that in 2023 19% of adults in the U.S. are experiencing Long COVID-19 symptoms. Long COVID\, or post-COVID syndrome\, describes a range of symptoms that emerge or persist four weeks after initial infection of SARS-COV-2. Symptoms can impact every organ system in the body\, most notably the cognitive\, cardiac and respiratory systems. Common symptoms include fatigue\, brain fog\, heart palpitations\, muscle weakness\, shortness of breath\, gastrointestinal distress\, changes in mood and post exertional malaise. \nEmerging research overwhelmingly points to Long COVID exacerbating pre-existing mental health symptoms and impacting emergent mental health problems. While researchers are unsure of the cause of Long COVID\, current theories suggest that the COVID-19 virus causes lasting organ damage\, reduces circulating serotonin and/or causes inflammation and autoimmunity. \nThis course will explore the mental health impacts of Long COVID in adults. The course will provide an overview of Long COVID and discuss emerging research on Long COVID\, including Long COVID’s impact on both pre-existing and emergent mental health concerns. This course will include implications for clinical practice and policy creation.

SUMMARY:Clinical Practice in Treatment Systems: A Psychodynamic Systems Approach
DESCRIPTION:Live Interactive Webinar \nInstructor: Cathleen Morey\, Ph.D.\, LICSW \nLevel: Intermediate \nCEs: 3 \nClinical practice in treatment systems is complex and challenging. Effective clinical practice is contingent on knowledge and skills that are particular for systems-based work involving multiple mental health practitioners and clients interacting in a relational matrix. Yet\, not all clinical theories and constructs that were developed for application in individual\, group\, and family modalities are directly transferable to the practice setting of a treatment system. In this seminar\, Cathleen Morey\, Ph.D.\, LICSW\, outlines a conceptual framework that synthesizes contemporary psychodynamic principles with systems theory – referred to as a psychodynamic systems approach – to inform and advance knowledge of systems-based clinical practice. This approach considers the interplay of dynamic processes among the four levels of the socially co-constructed system\, as well as patient\, staff and organizational factors that uniquely impact clinical processes in systems of care. Five key clinical phenomena are frequently actualized in systems work: transference\, countertransference\, splitting\, projective identification and enactment. Definitions of these phenomena formulated from a dyadic perspective and a contemporary psychodynamic systems approach will be offered\, and their similarities and differences will be discussed. \nBased on Morey’s empirical research\, she will describe the construct of system enactment and its relevance for clinicians practicing in treatment systems. She will outline a four-step framework for engaging system enactments to repair alliance ruptures with patients\, restore intra-staff functioning and address problematic organizational dynamics. Throughout the seminar\, Morey will highlight social justice and anti-oppressive elements of a psychodynamic systems approach. Case discussions will illustrate the application of concepts in ways that are clinically relevant for participants.
