10:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST

Artificial Intelligence and Therapy: Ethical Problem or Powerful Problem-Solver?

Technology has revolutionized access to mental health services for people around the world. However, the ethical challenges presented by the rapid expansion of the use of technology in our field cannot be overstated. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in mental health practice presents both benefits and significant risks. This session will provide an introductory level of understanding of AI and how it is currently being used in mental health practice, with a significant conversation around the possibilities for the future.

(Trainer - Kathryn Krase, Ph.D., J.D., M.S.W., Principal Consultant with Krase Consultant, is an expert on the professional ethics, and the intersection of ethics with legal responsibilities. She has years of experience consulting with government and community based organizations to develop policy & practice standards.)

Class 2

1:45 PM - 4:45 PM EST

An Overview of EMDR: Key Concepts and Applications

This course is an overview of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for therapists who are interested in understanding or reviewing the basics about the model. This does not serve as the EMDR Basic Training; rather, it is intended as an introduction or a refresher course, and it provides useful information for referring clinicians. Key concepts, an outline of treatment, up-to-date research, and case examples will be presented.

In this course,  the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model will be explained as the strengths-based theoretical foundation for EMDR, developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro. AIP views trauma symptoms as unprocessed disturbing memories. EMDR uses eye movements as bilateral stimulation to help access and desensitize traumatic memories, and allows individuals to reprocess memory adaptively thus eliminating symptoms. The 8 Phases of EMDR treatment will be presented along with case examples to illustrate the process.

(Trainer - Amanda Good, LICSW, EMDR-C, is the Clinical Director at The Sibley Group in Washington DC, where she has been a psychotherapist for adolescent and adult clients for 15 years. She specializes in treating stress, anxiety, and trauma related symptoms, and is certified in Eye Movement and Desensitization Therapy (EMDR).)
