Feb. 20: Cognitive reserve in clinical practice. Online. $195, 6 CEs. This 6-hour workshop provides clinicians with an evidence-based, practical framework for understanding and applying the concept of cognitive reserve in aging and mental health. Cognitive reserve–the brain’s capacity to buffer against stress, pathology, and functional decline—plays a central role not only in healthy aging, but also in conditions such as depression, sleep disturbance, trauma, close adult relationships shaped by attachment patterns, and chronic pain. Participants will learn how cognitive reserve develops, how it can be assessed using research-based tools, and how to integrate reserve-building strategies into therapeutic practice. Through case examples and clinical applications, attendees will explore ways to enhance brain resilience, support treatment planning, and promote long-term wellbeing across diverse client populations.

Feb. 26-27: Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy: Neglected Clinical Complexities. Online & Waltham, MA. $485, 13.25 CEs. Clinicians encounter a wide range of complex clinical challenges in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy (PAP). While many of these arise in other forms of treatment, longer sessions with dramatically lowered defenses and the frequent arising of transpersonal, spiritual, and other novel experiences require clinicians to broaden their skillsets and relational capacities. In addition to providing an update to progress in the field, our 5th conference will explore a wide range of these challenges, including potential adverse effects of PAP, how to identify and work with our own metaphysical assumptions, and how to understand and respond to novel experiences. The program will include multiple case studies and clinical vignettes designed to illuminate the nuances of PAP for both newcomers and veteran therapists alike.

Mar. 5 – Apr. 2: Treating Couples: Surmounting Challenges. Online on Thursdays. $230, 7.5 CEs. Couples therapy presents complexity unlike other forms of therapy, requiring clinicians to continuously expand their foundation to do the work well.

Apr. 9 – May 14: Digital Mental Health: The Impact of Artificial Intelligence. Online. $230, 7.5 CEs. Digital mental health tools have burgeoned in number and popularity since the pandemic. The addition of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based elements to these tools has led to many exciting research paths of investigation, clinical applications, as well as swift integration into widely-used digital tools and online apps. AI has been applied to diagnosis and prognosis (speech/text/behavioral signal processing), continuous monitoring (smartphone and sensor data), and automated delivery of therapeutic content including AI-driven conversational agents (chatbots) and adaptive digital psychotherapies. Society is at the beginning of a transition to AI ubiquity, which has great promise for expanding access to and improving mental health care, but also the potential for harm if not implemented and regulated responsibly. In this rapidly-changing environment, mental health clinicians must stay current with the state of the field, decide whether and how to use these tools in their own practices, and responsibly advise their patients who may already be using them in their daily lives.

Apr. 9-10: An Internal Family Systems Approach to Transforming Protective Parts: Inner Critics, OCD, and Other Anxiety. Online. $390, 12 CEs. During this two-day workshop, Richard Schwartz will teach collaboratively with Melissa Mose. Dr. Schwartz will begin the workshop with an overview of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model to orient those new to the model, while enriching the understanding of IFS for trained practitioners. He will review the core systemic concepts of the IFS model. Then he will discuss how IFS conceptualizes and works with inner critics. On the second day, Melissa Mose will bring her expertise about working with OCD and other forms of anxiety from an IFS lens. The teaching will include didactic explanations of ideas, live and videotaped demonstrations, experiential practice, discussion groups, as well as Q & A. Participants will learn to conceptualize OCD symptoms not as pathology, but as adaptive protective responses from specific internal parts that have taken on burdensome roles. The presentation will demonstrate how the relationship between parts using anxiety as protection and the neurobiological “sticky brain circuitry” of OCD creates particular challenges. This conceptualization makes the integration of IFS with principles of first line treatments for OCD— exposure and response prevention (ERP)—a powerful healing approach.

Apr. 13: Politics and Psychotherapy: Ethical Issues with Countertransference and Therapist Self-Disclosure. $105 ($75 for members), 3 CEs. Current political realities affect all of us, no matter which side of the political aisle we are on. How do you handle the significant anxiety that your clients may feel due to the current political climate? How do you handle your own anxiety about this? What do you do if your client has political beliefs you vehemently disagree with? How do you manage your own countertransference when your client’s beliefs conflict with your own? Imagine being able to enter into sessions with your clients knowing that you have a plan to manage conflicting value systems, while staying true to yourself. Imagine being able to help deepen their understanding of how they are being affected by the current political climate, and what they can do about it. Imagine seeing political countertransference as an aid to your clinical work instead of an obstacle. With the training your will receive from this workshop, you will be able to confidently decide how and when to disclose political beliefs and how to use either the similarities or the differences with your clients’ beliefs to strengthen the therapeutic alliance and deepen your clinical work.
