This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION: Shame and self-blame are among the most pervasive and clinically challenging forces in trauma work — yet they are often misread, minimized, or missed entirely. Clients who withdraw from care, relentlessly criticize themselves, present with persistent self-doubt, or seem stuck despite solid therapeutic progress may be living inside a shame response that neither they nor their clinicians have fully named. When shame goes unrecognized, treatment stalls and clients suffer unnecessarily.
This webinar offers clinicians a practical and theoretically grounded framework for understanding and working with shame and self-blame across trauma presentations. Drawing on key frameworks including Tangney&#8217;s shame-guilt distinction, Nathanson&#8217;s Compass of Shame, Brown&#8217;s Shame Resilience Theory, Etherson&#8217;s Shame Containment Theory, and Gilbert&#8217;s compassion-focused approach, participants will learn to recognize shame-based clinical presentations, understand their developmental and relational origins, and apply evidence-informed interventions in the therapy room. The course includes case illustrations and is applicable to psychologists, therapists, social workers, and counselors across disciplines who work with trauma-affected clients regardless of diagnosis or population.
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals
Content level: Introductory/Intermediate

Working with Shame and Self-Blame in Trauma Therapy

This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION:
AI chatbots, technically referred to as large language models, have been adopted faster than any technology in history, for reasons not hard to understand: they do not just provide information, they offer comfort. That is a powerful combination for people who are increasingly lonely, stressed, and mistrustful of others. Whether or not we consider ourselves technically inclined, AI is already part of our clients’ emotional lives.
This webinar is the first in a series of three that offers participants an orientation to where things stand: the social forces driving AI adoption, the specific technologies clients are using, and the multiple roles these technologies can play, including friend, lover, and therapist.
This training is designed for clinicians at every level of technical comfort, including those who have never interacted with a chatbot. Research regarding the potential therapeutic effectiveness of chatbots and how they compete with traditional therapy, will be reviewed.  We will look at what AI tools can genuinely offer clients, as well as the risks that deserve our clinical attention. We’ll give particular care to vulnerable populations, including adolescents and clients with attachment challenges. Participants will leave with a clearer map of this new terrain and a solid foundation for webinars two and three.
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals
Content level: Introductory/Intermediate

When Clients Turn to AI

When Clients Turn to AI: Understanding the Rise of Chatbots and AI Mental Health Support

This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION:Your clients are already using AI. The clinical question is no longer whether to address it, but how. This webinar is the practical core of the series: how to screen for AI use at intake in a way that opens the conversation rather than closing it, how to assess the function AI is serving in a client’s life, and how to have honest conversations about benefits and risks without pathologizing a tool the client may genuinely value. We will distinguish between AI use that enriches a client’s relational world and use that substitutes for it.
<div>The second half moves from assessment to integration. We will work through concrete ways AI can be brought into treatment deliberately, including AI as a between-session homework facilitator, for psychoeducation, and for customized relaxation and guided experiences. The webinar closes with detailed clinical vignettes such as a chatbot in the couples therapy room, and a client presenting with AI psychosis.</div>

Assessing AI Use in Therapy

Assessing AI Use in Therapy: How to Talk with Clients About Chatbots and When to Be Concerned

This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION: The final webinar turns to the questions of ethics, business strategy, and our own experience. AI raises ethical challenges that our professional guidelines have not yet caught up with, including confidentiality, documentation, liability, informed consent, and the value and limits of peer guidance when the ground is shifting this quickly. We will examine concrete options for becoming more competitive, including integrating VR protocols, deepening our human presence in the therapy room, offering a hybrid therapy + AI model of care, reconsidering fees and availability, and reskilling toward the areas where AI consistently falls short: severe mental illness, couples therapy, trauma, family systems, and forensics.
The webinar closes with a discussion of the personal reactions most of us are having to our rapidly changing professional landscape and world. Together, we will consider countertransference with AI-involved clients, the challenge of sitting with an uncertain professional future, AI’s reach into our personal and family lives, and self-care as a clinical imperative rather than a luxury. We will close by exploring the meaning and opportunity this moment holds for therapists willing to meet it.
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals

DESCRIPTION: Introduction to Attachment-Based Supervision: Clinical supervision is both an educational and relational process shaped by trust, vulnerability, power, and attachment. This continuing education webinar introduces Attachment-Based Supervision and examines how attachment dynamics influence supervisees’ responses to feedback, evaluation, uncertainty, clinical risk, and professional development. Participants will explore the supervisor’s role as a secure base, including how to provide emotional safety, reflective support, appropriate challenge, accountability, and professional boundaries without becoming overprotective. The webinar will also examine how secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment patterns may present within supervision.
Attention will be given to supervisors’ attachment styles, countertransference responses, and the ways their own relational patterns may affect communication, conflict, emotional availability, and supervisory decision-making. Participants will learn to understand feedback as an attachment event that may activate fears of failure, rejection, criticism, or loss of professional belonging. The presentation will offer attachment-informed principles for delivering clear and developmentally appropriate feedback, identifying supervisory ruptures, and facilitating repair. Participants will leave with practical strategies for creating supervision that is psychologically safe, appropriately challenging, ethically grounded, and supportive of lasting professional growth. 
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals
