SUMMARY:More Than “Dear Diary”: The Clinical Use of Journaling in Therapy
DESCRIPTION:More Than “Dear Diary”: The Clinical Use of Journaling in Therapy\nPresented by: Dreya Blume\, LCSW\nWhen: Friday\, October 23\, 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 | $190.00 \nContinuing Education Workshop Description:\nJournaling in session or as homework opens up an entirely new dimension of therapeutic processing for our clients. But journaling is so much more than free writing. It also includes many expressive writing techniques you will learn in this training\, such as unsent letters\, lists of 100\, sentence stems\, AlphaPoems\, dialoguing\, clustering\, touchstones\, and more. \nMany clients already journal independently and will be curious about and open to incorporating expressive writing into their treatment. Most people are thrilled to have the opportunity to utilize creativity during their healing journey. \nJournaling therapy is an evidence-based modality and has proven effective in addressing mental health issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder\, anxiety\, depression\, eating disorders\, grief and loss\, low self-esteem\, and substance abuse. Expressive writing also resonates with people of all ages and backgrounds\, making it an indispensable part of any clinician’s toolbox. \nIn this continuing education workshop\, you will explore the history of therapeutic journaling and learn how expressive writing can be used with clients in various ways. We will also discuss how to help clients create and maintain a consistent and fulfilling journaling practice outside of sessions. \nThis training will be experiential and interactive\, so please have a notebook or journal and something to write with on hand! \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives:\nAttendees of this workshop will: \n\nLearn the history of therapeutic journaling.\nIdentify the guidelines that should be used when deciding when and how to use therapeutic journaling.\nBecome familiar with the principles behind different therapeutic journaling techniques.\nDiscuss the mental health benefits of therapeutic journaling.\nPractice at least ten different techniques of therapeutic journaling.\nExplore how to use therapeutic journaling with different populations.\nIdentify how to help clients build a structured and consistent journaling practice.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n
