SUMMARY:🆕 Brand-New! The Major Arcana and the Hero’s Journey: Discovering Your Story Through Tarot 🆕
DESCRIPTION:Brand-New!\nMeets Law & Ethics\, Health Equity\, or Cultural Competence Continuing Education Requirements!\nThe Major Arcana and the Hero’s Journey: Discovering Your Story Through Tarot\nPresented by Rebecca Bloom\, LMHC (she/her)\nWhen: Friday\, July 17th\, 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 (meets criteria for 2 Law & Ethics and 2 Health Equity or Cultural Competence CEs) | Cost: $199.00\nEvery person is on a journey — one of becoming\, healing\, and finding meaning. The Major Arcana of the Tarot offers a beautiful reflection of this path. These 22 cards tell the story of the Hero’s Journey: the universal process of growth and transformation that mirrors each of our lives. Jung’s model of the hero’s journey is a path that clients can easily relate to in their own lives. In this workshop\, you’ll explore how the Tarot can help clients connect with their path through difficult times. \nThe Major Arcana begins with The Fool\, who takes a leap of faith into the unknown\, and ends with The World\, symbolizing a completed journey. Between these two cards lies the full range of human experience — discovery\, love\, loss\, challenge\, renewal\, and awakening. Each card helps clients reflect on how they learn\, heal\, and grow. \nWorking with these archetypes can help clients who recognize that the transformation is possible and that setbacks are part of the journey. Perhaps you are navigating a “Tower” moment of upheaval\, meeting your “Shadow” in The Devil\, or beginning a new chapter as The Fool once more. Through the imagery of the Tarot\, you will help clients to see their story not as fragmented or confusing\, but as meaningful — a necessary part of an unfolding journey toward wholeness. \nDuring this experiential workshop\, you’ll be guided through meditations\, creative exercises\, and creating Tarot cards. \nTarot\, when used in this way\, is not about prediction; it’s about reflection. It’s a way of accessing unconscious wisdom — the part of you that already knows what healing and integration look like. Jung described this process as individuation: the journey of becoming your fullest\, most authentic self. \nThrough the language of the Major Arcana\, you can learn to trust this inner process\, honor the changes you’re experiencing\, and view your challenges as meaningful steps along your path. Whether you are seeking clarity\, self-compassion\, or a deeper sense of purpose\, the Tarot offers a gentle\, creative way to reconnect with your own story — the myth you are living and the hero you are becoming. \nWorkshop Objectives:\n\nRecognize how the Hero’s Journey helps clients on their healing journey\nUnderstand the lessons of the major arcana through a therapeutic lens\nGain confidence in using tarot in clinical settings.\nHelping clients reconnect with intuition\, purpose\, and inner guidance\nExplore art making for self-care\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n

SUMMARY:Youth and Adult Suicide: Recognition\, Assessment\, and Treatment of Suicidality
DESCRIPTION:This 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!” \nREGISTER HERE\n  \n

SUMMARY:🆕 BRAND-NEW! Lunch & Learn: ADHD's Hidden Risk: Toxic Relationships and Clinical Interventions 🆕
DESCRIPTION:BRAND-NEW!\nHealth Equity or Cultural Competence Continuing Education Credits (CEs)\nLunch & Learn: ADHD’s Hidden Risk: Toxic Relationships and Clinical Interventions\nPresented by: Kate Mageau\, MA\, LMHC\nWhen: Monday\, July 27th\, 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.\nContinuing Education Credit Hours (NBCC and NASW-WA Approved CEs): 1.5 Health Equity or Cultural Competence CEs | $25.00\nContinuing Education Workshop Description\nIntimate partner violence (IPV) affects nearly one in three people worldwide\, and it is frequently overlooked in neurodivergent populations. Adults with ADHD are 2.5 times more likely to experience IPV\, yet the specific neurological and psychological mechanisms behind this elevated risk are rarely addressed in clinical training. Equipping clinicians to recognize the signs of IPV in this population is a matter of client safety. \nThis continuing education workshop provides a comprehensive\, evidence-based framework for understanding why ADHD brains are neurologically and psychologically vulnerable to toxic relationship dynamics. Clinicians will explore the specific ADHD traits that create relational vulnerability\, the neuroscience of why clients stay\, and evidence-based treatment approaches particularly well-suited to the ADHD-IPV intersection\, including ACT\, narrative therapy\, and feminist-informed psychoeducation. Attendees will leave equipped to recognize relationship vulnerability patterns\, understand the neurological barriers to leaving\, and support ADHD clients who are at risk of being in a toxic or abusive relationship. \nPresenter’s emphasis on culture and intersectionality: This continuing education workshop centers intersectionality as a core clinical framework. Prevalence data on BIPOC populations are woven throughout\, including racial disparities in ADHD diagnosis. \nWhite individuals are 26% more likely to receive an ADHD diagnosis than Black individuals\, meaning BIPOC ADHDers are disproportionately undiagnosed and unsupported. Black\, American Indian and Alaska Native\, and Hispanic and Latina women all experience disproportionately high rates of IPV\, compounded by medical mistrust\, systemic barriers\, and discrimination when seeking help. \nLGBTQ+ populations are addressed explicitly\, including elevated ADHD prevalence in transgender adults\, IPV rates of 61% in bisexual women and 54% in transgender and non-binary people\, the 44% of LGBTQ+ survivors denied shelter services\, and how abusers may weaponize homophobia and transphobia\, including threats of outing as tools of control. \nThis workshop uses gender-neutral language throughout\, including gender-neutral pronouns\, reflecting the reality that ADHD and intimate partner violence affect people of all genders and that clinicians serve clients across the full spectrum of gender identity. Clinical examples and research cited throughout reflect diverse gender identities\, sexual orientations\, and racial and ethnic backgrounds. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives:\n\nDiscuss the neurobiological and psychological mechanisms by which ADHD increases vulnerability to intimate partner violence.\nApply this framework to recognize relationship vulnerability patterns in ADHD clients.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n
