However\, many clinicians are reluctant to become supervisors due to legal and ethical liability concerns.  These concerns are often increased by a lack of accurate information about the true risks of liability faced by supervisors. \nThrough direct instructions\, presentation of real-life scenarios\, and group discussions\, participants will understand the fundamentals of supervision best practices to improve their effectiveness and skill as clinical supervisors. \nThis three-day\, 15-hour supervision workshop is designed to meet the training requirements for Washington State Approved Supervisors.\nObjectives:\n• Identify and assess sources of significant liability in supervision; \n• Construct effective strategies for creating a sound supervision agreement; \n• Describe key conceptual frameworks for supervision; \n• Compare various theoretical approaches to supervision; \n• Contrast various types of supervisory relationships; \n• Examine the benefits between group and individual supervision settings; \n• Summarize the legal and ethical regulation of supervision; \n• Maximize supervisor\, supervisee\, and client success through supervision structure; \n• Integrate regulation and practice to provide quality supervision documentation. \nPayment Options\nCascadia Training values quality continuing education that is accessible\, inclusive\, and without barriers to all. We never want the cost of our workshops to be a barrier to attending one of our workshops\, particularly our multi-session workshops. \nWe offer several options to make our workshops cost-inclusive: payment plans and a limited number of discounts for students and early professionals. \nFor payment plans\, you can select paying 50% today and 50% due by October 31st\, 2026. \nPlease email us at hello@cascadiatraining.org to inquire about possible discounts. \nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:💲SPECIAL SALE!💲Pleasure in the Treatment Room 🆕
DESCRIPTION:💲Last-Minute Deal! $50 Off!💲\nBrand-New!\nMeets Law & Ethics\, Health Equity\, Cultural Competence\, and/or Professional Roles & Boundaries Continuing Education Requirements!\nPleasure in the Treatment Room\nPresented by Rebecca Bloom\, LMHC (she/her)\nWhen: Friday\, October 9th\, 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 (NBCC and NASW-WA Approved): 6 CEs (meets criteria for 2 Law & Ethics\, 3 Health Equity or Cultural Competence CEs\, and/or 2 Professional Roles & Boundaries CEs) | Cost: $199.00 Now Only $149.00!\nContinuing Education Workshop Description:\nHow do we talk about pleasure in the treatment room? Do you feel comfortable talking with your clients about intimacy? How do we talk about what we desire and what we want to say “No” to? In this 6-CE continuing education workshop\, we will explore all of this and more — using the most current research and writings on Sex Therapy as the foundation for the workshop. \nOver the past twenty-five years\, Rebecca’s clinical work has centered on helping adult survivors of complex trauma reclaim safety\, agency\, and connection after profound experiences of betrayal and harm. Much of this work has involved sitting with the realities of developmental trauma\, attachment wounds\, and the long-lasting effects of abuse perpetrated by trusted individuals. \nAs the presenter begins integrating intimacy and couples counseling more intentionally into my practice\, she has become increasingly aware of how essential conversations about pleasure\, embodiment\, and desire are within trauma treatment. Our clients often learn how to endure\, protect\, and disconnect long before they are given permission to explore what feels good\, nourishing\, or truly wanted—to discover what brings them pleasure. \nRebecca’s theoretical foundation has been strongly informed by post-graduate training and completion of Levels One and Two at the Sensory Psychotherapy Institute. Using this sensory-informed approach during the workshop\, we will explore safe ways for your clients to discuss what their bodies and minds want most—what is pleasurable to them. \nWe will take time to really look at human physiology and how each of our parts work. This approach emphasizes mindfulness\, nervous system awareness\, and the importance of tracking bodily experience as part of healing. \nWhen clients begin to slow down through mindfulness and sense perception\, they often discover that they have limited experience identifying what they genuinely want. By helping clients attend to sensory experiences in the present moment\, therapists can support the development of curiosity\, self-trust\, and emotional regulation. This process creates space for clients to recognize preferences\, boundaries\, pleasure\, and longing in ways that may have previously felt inaccessible or unsafe. \nWe will also explore issues that complicate desire. The most common topics among these that come up in the treatment room include nonmonogamy\, kink\, how our bodies work\, pornography\, family systems and beliefs\, and societal messaging. \nRather than approaching intimacy solely through cognition or narrative processing\, helping clients remain grounded and present in their bodies creates opportunities for deeper self-understanding and relational connection. Embodied awareness can become a pathway not only toward healing trauma\, but also toward cultivating intimacy that feels authentic\, consensual\, and alive. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives:\nLearning Goals for “Pleasure in the Treatment Room”: \n\nDefining pleasure and intimacy.\nDiscovering psychosocial aspects of desire\, gender\, and kink.\nUnderstanding medical conditions that impair sexual functioning.\nComprehending common sexual challenges in relationships.\nExploring issues regarding the use of pornography.\nUnderstanding contemporary models for treatment of sexual problems.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Professional Wills: Why You Need One and How to Create It
DESCRIPTION:Law & Ethics CEs!\nProfessional Wills: Why You Need One and How to Create It\nPresented by: Sandy Voit MS\, EdS\, LMHC\, CDFA\nWhen: Thursday\, October 15\, 2026\, 2025 | 10:00 am – 12:00 pm Pacific Time\nWhere: Live on Zoom. You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credits: CEs: 2 Law & Ethics CEs | $65.00\nARE YOU IN BREACH OF YOUR PROFESSIONAL ETHICS?\nYou have spent your entire professional career securing and storing medical records and ensuring your clients’ confidentiality. What happens to these records when you retire\, become disabled\, or die? \nDid you know that even if you die\, your estate could be held responsible for malpractice complaints and legal actions brought about by your failure to anticipate your demise? \nFor psychologists\, your Code of Ethics dictates that you are expected to “make reasonable efforts to plan for facilitating services in the event that psychological services are interrupted by factors such as the psychologist’s illness\, death\, unavailability\, relocation\, or retirement…” The same ethical mandate applies to Mental Health Counselors\, Marriage and Family Therapists\, and Social Workers. \nThis workshop provides information and examples of how to prepare for such a situation – creating a Professional Will and identifying a Professional Executor to handle the legal and ethical details necessary to protect yourself and your practice. If something happens to you\, you need a similarly licensed professional (not your spouse or child) to deal with your clients/patients\, confidential records\, office leases\, obtain releases\, make referrals\, etc. In addition\, your clients/patients will likely need help in their grieving and necessary transition to another therapist. \nREGISTER HERE\n  \n

SUMMARY:💲SPECIAL SALE!💲 Beyond Answers: Strengthening Our Client’s Inner Compass through Ancient Runes 🆕
DESCRIPTION:💲Last-Minute Deal! $50 Off!💲\nBrand-New!\nLaw & Ethics\, Health Equity\, and Cultural Competence CEs!\nBeyond Answers: Strengthening Our Client’s Inner Compass through Ancient Runes\nPresented by: Kylani St. Clair\, LMHC\, CCTP\, RYT\nWhen: Friday\, October 23rd\, 2026 | 10:00 am – 1:00 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): 3 CEs -counts as Law & Ethics\, Health Equity\, or Cultural Competence | $99.00 NOW ONLY $49.00!\nContinuing Education Workshop Description:\nAmbivalence and uncertainty are common sources of distress for many clients\, who often look to therapists for answers\, reassurance\, and confirmation that they are making the “right” decision. Although psychotherapy cannot eliminate life’s ambiguities\, it can help clients cultivate something even more enduring: an inner compass rooted in self-trust\, personal values\, and meaningful reflection. \nThis experiential continuing education workshop introduces clinicians to the Elder Futhark rune system as an ancient symbolic framework for facilitating deeper therapeutic reflection and meaningful dialogue. Rather than using runes for prediction or divination\, participants will learn to incorporate their symbolism into psychotherapy as a client-centered tool for cultivating intuition\, exploring values\, constructing meaning\, and strengthening clients’ capacity to navigate uncertainty. Throughout the training\, runes are presented as one historical symbolic tradition that can support reflection\, not as a system of universal truth or prescribed belief. \nParticipants will experience the same reflective exercises they may later facilitate with clients\, gaining firsthand insight into the therapeutic process before integrating these interventions into clinical practice. Clinicians will learn practical strategies for incorporating rune symbolism into treatment while maintaining ethical practice\, cultural humility\, and respect for each client’s worldview. \nParticipants will leave with practical interventions they can adapt to a variety of clinical populations\, along with a deeper understanding of how symbolic facilitation can foster self-discovery\, meaning-making\, and confidence in the face of life’s uncertainties. The foundations of Jungian psychotherapy were built with instruments like mythology\, dreams\, archetypal symbols\, and ancient hieroglyphs. Jung regarded runes as a vital tool in “shaping one’s identity and life’s narrative\,” with a unique ability to connect our unconscious with our conscious (Samuels\, 1986; Stein\, 2021). \nRather than helping clients search for certainty\, clinicians will learn to foster greater self-trust\, reflection\, and confidence in navigating life’s inevitable ambiguities—empowering clients to access the wisdom they already possess. Jung highlighted the therapist’s role in psychotherapy as supporting patients in their own journey of “seeking deeper self=understanding” rather than providing simplistic yes-or-no answers. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives\n\nDescribe the historical origins\, cultural context\, and traditional use of the Elder Futhark rune system.\nDifferentiate the therapeutic use of runes from divination practices while maintaining appropriate ethical boundaries and scope of practice.\nExplain how rune symbolism can facilitate intuition\, values exploration\, meaning-making\, and clients’ ability to navigate uncertainty.\nObserve therapeutic techniques for incorporating runes into psychotherapy to facilitate reflection\, insight\, and meaningful dialogue.\nApply ethical principles\, cultural humility\, and health equity considerations when introducing rune-based interventions.\nDevelop practical strategies for incorporating rune-based interventions into treatment while honoring client autonomy\, informed consent\, and individual worldviews.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n
