Participants will be encouraged to share ideas about how to use games that may be traditional to their own cultural background, or that of their clientele, to support EF and Metacognition in ND clients.

  Deep Story, Deep Lamentation:

  Giving Voice to Grief and Loss

  Live in Foxboro

  Deep Story, Deep Lamentation: Giving Voice to Grief and Loss The need to sound our grief is older than human speech and we share it with other grieving species. At this time, with the world's suffering everywhere around and within us, we offer a safe space to explore the ancient practice of lamentation. We will work with the mourning ritual of keening as our ancestors through history have done, both individually and in a circle of sound. This natural somatic release frees feelings beneath words into sounding what cannot be said. Opening our own body-voices as healers helps us to guide others through grief with deepened empathy, compassion, and skill. 

  Presenter: Dr Molly Scott

  For 30 + years, in practice, community mental health and privately, Dr  Scott has taught counseling at the University level, led workshops and trainings in U.S. and internationally in Creative Resonance and embodied voice work with trauma, including grief work in keening/sounding circles.

  This is #3 in our 5 workshop Grief and Loss track.

  Healing Grief and Loss through Signs, Symbols, and After-Death Communication

  Live in Foxboro

  This comprehensive course is designed to empower clinical therapists in the transformative realm of after-death communication (ADC).
  Through this course, therapists will gain an in-depth understanding of ADC and its therapeutic applications, enhancing their skills to effectively integrate these approaches into therapy sessions.

  Participants will be equipped to skillfully guide and explore the profound avenues of signs, dreams, and communications that often accompany the grieving process. The course emphasizes techniques for validating and supporting clients as they navigate the intricate journey of finding meaning in the aftermath of loss.
  
  In addition to traditional methods, we will explore the innovative use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a powerful tool to induce After Death Communication. Through engaging case studies and an exploration of the latest bereavement research, therapists will gain practical insights into integrating EMDR into their therapeutic toolkit, enhancing their ability to facilitate meaningful connections in the grief healing process.

  More and more, therapists are coming across actively suicidal youth in their practices. It's often not possible to screen out these clients, and with the shortage of providers across the nation, it is often not possible to refer out in a timely manner. This course is designed to provide therapists with a stronger ability to assess risk levels, increase safety, and adapt already known approaches to fit adolescent clients. Through the use of case discussion, role plays, and the highlighting of common methods and approaches, clinicians will gain the tools needed to effectively treat suicidal youth that are appropriate for outpatient treatment while maintaining overall safety.

  Presenter: Cally Sullivan, LMHC

  Presenter is currently a pediatric therapist in private practice that specializes in treating children and adolescents that have experienced suicidal ideation/ actions and self-harm behaviors.

  Supervision is defined as the artful integration of clinical skills, education and experience to ensure the integrity of clinical services to the client and to develop competence in the supervisee. It provides the structure and framework for learning how to apply knowledge, theory, and clinical procedures to solve human problems. This workshop is intended for experienced clinicians who wish to become trained supervisors. It will include examples, role play, and templates for supervision assessment.

  This workshop is approved to fulfill the initial or renewal requirements for the MaMHCA Certified Clinical Supervisor Credential (MaCCS).
