You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credit Hours: 3 CEs | $95.00 Now Only $65.00!\nNOTE: This workshop does NOT meet the Department of Health suicide assessment CE requirements.\nCognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approaches offer effective support and intervention for suicidal clients. Participants will learn the core tenets of the CBT model as it applies specifically to suicidal thinking and behavior\, including how cognitive distortions\, emotional dysregulation\, and behavioral avoidance contribute to acute risk. \nThrough lecture\, case examples\, and guided practice\, the course demonstrates how clinicians can use CBT’s structured\, collaborative\, and transparent framework to better understand the drivers of suicidality and create targeted\, individualized treatment plans. \nThe course also explores the concept of the “suicide mode\,” helping therapists recognize the cognitive\, affective\, physiological\, and behavioral patterns that become activated during moments of heightened risk. Participants will be introduced to at least five CBT-oriented intervention methods—including cognitive restructuring\, behavioral activation\, problem-solving training\, safety planning\, and distress-management skills—that directly support clients in reducing suicidal urges and increasing coping capacity. \nWorkshop Objectives:\n\nIdentify at least four core tenets of the CBT model and the conceptualization of suicide.\nDescribe key cognitive and behavioral factors that emerge during activation of the suicide mode.\nExplain at least five CBT-oriented methods of providing suicide intervention to clients.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n

You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credit Hours (NBCC and NASW-WA Approved): 6 CEs – 3 are Law & Ethics CEs | $165.00\nWe are blessed to be in a profession that doesn’t enforce mandatory retirement upon us when we reach a certain age. (The majority of people who are no longer working didn’t stop voluntarily…) Clients see our grey hair as a sign of wisdom. We can work as much\, or as little\, as we choose. There will come a time when you are ready to stop working\, and retirement has several issues you must address before you can retire… And there might come a time when circumstances beyond your control – death\, disability\, illness\, incapacity\, and/or caregiving – will prohibit you from continuing. \nYou will do yourself and your family a service by planning for this in advance. We will discuss therapeutic issues\, notification\, records\, liability\, creating a professional will\, and identifying a professional executor. We will also discuss whether or not you are financially prepared for retirement. Substantial handouts and resources are provided so you can focus on the discussions without spending all your time taking notes. \nWorkshop Objectives:\n• Understanding therapeutic aspects of preparing for retirement. \n• Preparing a Professional Will and identifying a Professional Executor. \n• Understanding your obligations for notification and access to your records. \n• Preparing for the Unexpected – what happens if you were to die or become incapacitated? \n• Your personal finances in preparation for retirement. \nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:🆕BRAND-NEW! Cultural Humility in Working with Immigrant Clients 🆕
DESCRIPTION:BRAND-NEW!\nLaw & Ethics\, Health Equity\, and/or \nCultural Competence CEs\nCultural Humility in Working with Immigrant Clients\nPresented by: Dr. Gitika Talwar\nWhen: Friday\, June 12th\, 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: 3 Law & Ethics\, Health Equity\, and/or Cultural Competence CEs | $99.00\nThis continuing education workshop will discuss how therapy is a site of acculturation for the therapeutic dyad (therapist and client/therapist and couple/therapist and family). Recognizing values alignment and values misalignment can be an opportunity for a deep and sincere therapeutic encounter. Cultural humility can be a practice to navigate this therapeutic encounter in helpful ways. \nCultural humility can help the therapist effectively steward the therapeutic space by fostering continuous self-reflection\, discovery\, and honest\, trustworthy relationships with clients (Yeager & Bauer-Wu\, 2013). It represents a shift from cultural competence\, which emphasizes “knowing” about various cultural groups\, to an ongoing process of “understanding” and “being” with the client (Tervalon & Murray-García\, 1998; Lekas et al.\, 2020). \nKey aspects and principles of cultural humility include: \n\nAcknowledging power dynamics and biases: Therapists are invited to recognize their own biases and the inherent power imbalances within the therapeutic relationship (Summers & Nelson\, 2022).\nNot being the expert: Therapists understand that they are not the experts when clients have lived experiences different from their own (Summers & Nelson\, 2022).\nAdvocacy: It includes advocating to dismantle systemic barriers that impact clients (Summers & Nelson\, 2022).\n\nMosher et al. (2017) report that the impact of cultural humility in therapy includes: \n\nDeeper therapeutic alliances\nOpportunities to communicate respect for the client’s cultural identity\nBetter therapy outcomes\nOpportunities for meaningful engagement and repair of cultural mistakes\n\nGiven how religious and spiritual beliefs can be entwined with cultural beliefs\, cultural humility can be expanded to include humility towards spiritual and religious beliefs in order to serve our racially\, ethnically\, and spiritually diverse clients. \nWorkshop Objectives:\n\nLearn about cultural humility by recognizing how immigration shapes cultural experience\, and reflect on the role of spirituality in our culturally diverse clients.\nIdentify ethical considerations that challenge the therapist’s capacity to be open\, curious\, flexible\, and empathic in responding to clients’ needs. Develop practices to remain culturally attuned.\nIdentify common clinical conceptualizations that can create cultural tensions within this therapeutic space\, especially when cultural or spiritual values challenge the therapist’s own value system\nRecognize the importance of advocacy in dismantling systemic barriers that impact clients. Develop practices that foster greater allyship.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n

From a storytelling perspective\, we’ll look at some slippery slopes\, regrettable missteps\, and colossal blunders. Our focus will primarily be on ethical considerations within the therapeutic relationship – boundary crossings & violations\, professional competency & misconduct\, and the risks of compassion fatigue. \nThis full-day class is designed for practicing therapists with clients of all ages. The workshop will be conducted in a Zoom format. Teaching modalities will include clinical discussion\, lectures with many case examples\, video illustrations\, and small group and individual exercises. \nWorkshop Objectives:\n\nDefine professional competence and identify our scope of practice.\nDifferentiate between boundary crossings and violations.\nIdentify potential impacts of transference and countertransference on ethical practice.\nUtilize Ling & Hauck’s ETHICS model as an option for decision-making.\nExplore the ethical risks of compassion fatigue and strategies to mitigate them.\nDetermine resources and supports for ethical decision-making.\n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT! Register for Next Session | Youth and Adult Suicide: Recognition\, Assessment\, and Treatment of Suicidality
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is now sold out. \nPlease register for the next session on Friday\, November 6th here.\nThis workshop meets the suicide assessment requirements for re-licensure.\nYouth and Adult Suicide: Recognition\, Assessment\, and Treatment of Suicidality\nPresented by: Randi Jensen\, MA\, LMHC\, CCDC\nWhen: Friday\, July 24th\, 2026 | 9:00 am – 4:30 pm Pacific Time\nWhere: Live on Zoom. You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credit Hours: 6 CEs | $199.00\nOther 2026 Sessions:\n\n\nFriday\, November 6th\, 2026: MORE INFO & REGISTER>>>\n\n\nThis workshop meets the Washington State suicide assessment requirements for re-licensure. The Washington State Department of Health has approved this 6-hour workshop for its 2022 Model List. This workshop also satisfies the continuing education requirements set by the Department of Health related to suicide assessment\, management\, and treatment.\nHistorically\, mental health treatment for suicidal individuals has involved extensive psychopharmacology\, repeated cognitive behavioral therapy\, positive psychology methods\, stress reduction exercises\, and/or deep therapy into family-of-origin issues\, all proven individually insufficient for the long-term prevention of suicide and suicidality. \nThe World Health Organization (2019) reported decreasing trends in suicide mortality in most countries across the world. Unfortunately\, the mortality of suicide showed an increasing trend in the United States. Between 2000 and 2018\, the suicide rate skyrocketed\, increasing by a whopping 35% (CDC\, 2020). Interestingly\, during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic\, between 2020 and 2021\, there was a decrease in suicide rates. This was short-lived\, unfortunately\, as suicide rates began to increase again by 2% in 2022 (CDC\, 2022). \nWhat can we do? As clinicians\, we need to understand there are many roads to suicidality — each usually requiring individual intervention. \nThis workshop presents original concepts in the development of suicidality as an ingenious coping mechanism that develops over time. The brain’s neuroplasticity forms neural pathways that underpin the reinforcing suicidal thought pattern. Brain retraining provides the formation of new healthy neural pathways. The healing process is directed\, encouraged\, and supported through a specifically designed peer protocol based on existing evidence-based social support. \nResearch shows that the first suicide attempt is often the first time anyone intervenes. However\, it is generally not the first time the danger has been known. Loved ones just don’t know what to do. They take the suicidal individual to a hospital or professional where the treatment protocol has not changed for decades. When the suicidal individual comes home after the attempt\, family and friends don’t know how to help prevent the next one. The Jensen Suicide Peer Protocol (JSP3)\, based on evidence-based principles\, is a prescribed method for the family members and concerned others to take an active part in the recovery of their loved one. Randi has used this method for decades and has saved lives. \nOBJECTIVES:\n• Describe the extent of suicide in the general and special populations\, including children\, adolescents\, and military personnel.\n• Distinguish what suicidality is and the difference between self-harm and suicidality\n• Explain the psychobiology of suicidality and its progression\n• Articulate warning signs and symptoms using simple and effective suicide assessment tools\n• Express and practice Motivational Interviewing techniques used in counseling suicidal individuals\n• Explain a life-saving peer support protocol and how to implement it\n• Describe ethical considerations\, documentation\, and confidentiality issues. \nThe Washington State Department of Health has approved this 6-hour workshop for its 2022 Model List. This workshop also satisfies the continuing education requirements set by the Department of Health related to suicide assessment\, management\, and treatment. \nRandi consistently receives excellent evaluations from attendees of her workshops. Here are just a few quotes from past attendees:\n*  “I took a different class about suicide a few months back. It was so heavy with content and so focused on how to cross every “T” and dot every “I” that I actually left more anxious about treating suicidal clients than before. In contrast\, Randi’s workshop gave me a broader general understanding and a way to connect the clinical skills I already have to the treatment of these clients. I feel much more confident and competent working with suicidal clients now.” \n* “Ms. Jensen is an extremely competent clinician and presenter. Over my 30+ career in mental health work\, this is one of the very best workshops I have attended. Thank you\, Cascadia and Randi!”  \n* “This is the most impactful continuing education class I’ve ever taken!” \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Tarot and Therapy: Intuition and Metaphor
DESCRIPTION:Law & Ethics CEs!\nTarot and Therapy: Intuition and Metaphor\nPresented by: Rebecca Bloom\, ATR-BC\, LMHC (she/her)\nWhen: Friday\, August 7th\, 2026 | 9:00 am – 4:30 pm Pacific Time\nWhere: Live on Zoom. You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credits: CEs: 6 CEs – 3 Law & Ethics CEs | $199.00\, which includes $174.00 tuition plus $25.00 for Ephemera Art Supply Packs Created by Rebecca Bloom Especially for Cascadia Training Registrants. Art supply packs will be mailed to registrants in advance of the workshop.\nWhy is Tarot so popular right now? Are your clients coming in talking about the card they pulled before the session and you have no idea what that means? Have you used tarot for years for your own well being and would love to use it with mental health clients but not sure how? \nMost clients come into therapy saying that they do not have access to their intuition and are not sure how to trust what the right choices are to make in their lives. Using a single card pulled from a tarot deck\, and exploring the client’s meaning of the card\, clients can begin to feel connected to their own sense of self\, clients can find new ways to safely explore difficult experiences and find ways to test out feeling grounded again. \nStarting with the Jungian concepts of Archetypes we will look at how the collective sense of self represents over these twelve types of being.  Then we will explore the history and uses of tarot. These seventy-eight cards have been used for hundreds of years. Using the Rider-Waite-Smith deck\, from 1909\, as a starting place we will look at many of the decks available today and why people turn to them every day or when times get difficult. \nWe will explore intuition and how to trust our own sense of knowing. In this hands-on workshop\, you will make five of your own cards.  Exploring the major arcana\, and the suits of cups\, pentacles\, swords and wands we will learn the journeys of each of these sets. \nObjectives:\n\nLearn archetypes of Jung and Tarot.\nLearn why the creative process soothes the body and the mind.\nFind materials you will be comfortable using with your clients.\nUse art making for your own self-care.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n
