Description

Co-sponsored by the New Hampshire Psychological Association

This workshop is geared towards mental health professionals seeking to acquire entry-level training and knowledge on the asessment, management, and treatment of suicide risk through brief cognitive behavioral therapy.  The first portion of the workshop provides intensive training in core competencies for the clinical care of suicidal patients, including general interpersonal dynamics, standardization of suicide-related terminiology, and documentation strategies.  The workshop then provides a detailed, step-by-step review of the 12-session brief cognitive behavioral therapy (BCBT) treatment protocol.  Practical strategies for effective treatment delivery are provided using case examples and video vignettes that illustrate concepts and interventions.
