Presented by Margaux Helm, LMFT

In these uncertain times, including Covid, climate change and political unrest, we as mental health professionals, are more susceptible to vicarious trauma and burnout.  Working from home and online can add to challenges navigating our professional and personal well being.  In this training we will have the opportunity to explore how our collective climate is impacting us. We will be able to identify symptoms of vicarious trauma that can create issues with counter-transference and boundaries. We will discuss the antidotes to vicarious trauma and create a resiliency plan to sustain our hopefulness and professionalism. 

In the second part of the presentation, there will be a panel of experienced LMFTs who work in various settings and with different populations such as couples, youth and marginalized populations. They will share the impact of vicarious trauma in their careers, particularly over the last two years, and how they have been coping. There will be time for discussion and connecting with your colleagues to help replenish you and your work.  

Learning Objectives

1. Identify the difference between vicarious trauma, burnout, and compassion fatigue.
2. Identify the signs and symptoms of vicarious trauma
3. Address issues related to counter-transference and boundaries
4. Re-frame the present challenges
5. Define resiliency and explore ways to cultivate wellness
6. Create a personal and professional resiliency plan

Guidance for Creating and Maintaining Effective Patient Records Presented by

Bradley Muldrow, Esq. CAMFT Staff Attorney

Few topics elevate therapists' anxiety levels quite like record keeping and records requests. This workshop will provide practitioners with the legal and ethical knowledge necessary to keep their cool and proceed with confidence when creating, maintaining, and producing their patient records.

Letters, Testimony and Boundaries . . . Oh My!
Presented by Alain Montgomery, Esq. CAMFT Staff Attorney

Therapists are often asked to write letters, fill out forms and offer professional opinions on behalf of clients. During this three hour presentation, CAMFT staff attorney Alain Montgomery will review key legal and ethical standards for therapists to consider before writing a letter or filling out a form for a client and discuss how to manage the potential outcome of having to respond to a subpoena and/or testify as a witness in a legal proceeding which could result from having rendered a professional opinion on behalf of a client.

This is a live streaming 6.0 CEU event. A recording will be available for viewing for 21 days after the event for anyone who can't attend the live stream.
