SUMMARY:🆕BRAND-NEW! Lunch & Learn: Threat Analysis: Improving Self-Regulation with Practical Brain Science 🆕
DESCRIPTION:Brand-New!\nLunch & Learn: Threat Analysis: Improving Self-Regulation with Practical Brain Science\nPresented by: Hannah Smith\, MA\, LMHC\, CGP\nWhen: Monday\, July 20th\, 2026 | 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM\, Pacific Time\nWhere: Live on Zoom. You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\n\nContinuing Education Credit Hours: 1.5 CEs | $25.00\nYou will be hard-pressed to find a client in therapy that does not deal with anxiety\, and we all know the rate of people going to therapy for trauma treatment has been significant for some time. \nThen\, we have neurodivergent people who have steadily activated nervous systems we often diagnose as anxiety disorders\, especially social anxiety. \nIn any case\, the results of dysregulation can be destabilizing\, making people feel as if they are under threat\, which could lead to relational issues or cause them to miss out on their lives. \nBut what if it didn’t have to be this way? \nWith advances in our understanding of modern neuroscience and within the framework of Interpersonal Neurobiology\, we now recognize that there are two major neural pathways to nervous system activation\, each indicating a different type of threat. The key is to learn to detect the type of activation occurring and to respond appropriately to each. \nIn this session\, you will learn the science behind these two paths to dysregulation and an easy method to help show clients so they\, too\, can choose the right set of responses to whatever “present moment” situation they find themselves in\, resulting in more effective responses and less overall fear and activation. \nImagine!  A reduction in general\, separation\, and social anxiety! Improved outcomes in trauma when it’s not exacerbated by ongoing fear responses.  If you want to contribute to these outcomes\, this will be an hour well spent! \nWORKSHOP OBJECTIVES:\n\nIdentify and describe the neuro-biological systems involved in nervous system dysregulation\nExplain the two paths to activation\, why they occur\, and the appropriate responses to each\nApply a method to help clients tell the difference between the two paths so they have more buy-in for doing the work of self-regulation\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n

SUMMARY:💲SPECIAL SALE!💲Counseling on Access to Lethal Means for Suicide 🆕
DESCRIPTION:💲Last-Minute Deal! $50 Off!💲\nBRAND-NEW!\nLaw & Ethics CEs!\nCounseling on Access to Lethal Means for Suicide\nPresented by: Diane Bigler\, LCSW\, LSCSW\nWhen: Thursday\, August 6th\, 2026| 9:00 AM – 12:15 PM\, Pacific Time\nWhere: Live on Zoom. You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credit Hours (NBCC and NASW-WA Approved CEs): 3 Law & Ethics CEs | $99.00 Now Only $49.00!\nContinuing Education Workshop Description:\nReducing access to lethal means\, such as firearms and medication\, can determine whether a person at risk for suicide lives or dies. This continuing education workshop will explore how to reduce access to the methods people use to kill themselves. Discover who needs lethal means counseling and how to work with people at risk for suicide—and their families—to reduce access. \nLearn about what clients and families need to know\, and what clinicians can do to increase safety with suicidal clients who have access to lethal means. Participants will also examine common barriers clinicians face when discussing firearms\, medications\, and other lethal means with clients and families\, including fear of damaging rapport\, cultural considerations\, and uncertainty about legal or ethical responsibilities. \nPractical\, trauma-informed communication strategies will be reviewed to help therapists engage in collaborative\, nonjudgmental conversations that support client autonomy while enhancing safety planning. Case examples and clinical applications will help participants strengthen confidence in identifying appropriate clients for lethal means counseling and integrating these interventions into routine suicide risk assessment and treatment planning. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives\n\nExplain at least two reasons why reducing access to lethal means can prevent suicide.\nIdentify clients for whom lethal means counseling is appropriate.\nDescribe counseling strategies for raising the topic of lethal means and increase confidence and skill in applying these strategies with clients.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n
