SUMMARY:Reciprocal Resilience:  Working with Children\, Adolescents\, and Their Parents
DESCRIPTION:A Virtual Conference on Zoom | Co-sponsored by NAAP \nSaturday\, May 6\, 2023 9:00am – 3:30pm EST \n7.5 CEs \n\n\nStep up your clinical game and join us for the ultimate conference experience!\nOur upcoming Zoom conference is the perfect opportunity to gain fresh insights and skills into working with kids and their parents. Led by a team of top-notch speakers\, including renowned clinicians and educators\, this conference is packed with cutting-edge techniques and strategies to immediately enhance your practice. \nDiscover Reciprocal Resilience (RR)\, a transformative tool that can \nhelp clients and their therapists\, or parents and children\, bond while grappling with emotional struggles or trauma. Activating the energy and communication loop within the relationship\, RR creates a safe and supportive therapeutic container\, enabling both parties to access and increase resilience. Clients feel empowered to share their stories and work toward healing and growth in the circle of Reciprocal Resilience. \n\nGet ready to explore challenges and booby traps encountered in effectively helping children navigate from childhood to adolescence to adulthood.\nWe’ll also delve into factors that shape lifelong development\, including emotional inheritance\, traumatic life situations\, difficult family dynamics\, and personality factors. We’ll discuss strategies for understanding our reactions and how to translate them into therapeutic interventions that have the power to change lives. \nThat’s not all! Earn 7.5CEs for your attendance and join us from anywhere in the world via Zoom. This is your chance to connect with other mental health professionals and educators\, gaining valuable insights and competencies. Whether you work with children or adults\, this conference will provide tools necessary to take you to the next level. Don’t miss out on this transformative experience – register now and revolutionize your approach to mental health practice. \n\nGuest Speakers\nPresentations\, Interviews\, Q&A\nPatricia Bratt\, PhD \n…Presents an innovative approach to promoting resilience in children\, adolescents\, parents\, and the therapists who care for them. \n\nGalit Atlas\, PhD \nDiscover the power of Emotional Inheritance with Dr. Galit Atlas. In an interview with Dr. Patricia Bratt\, she describes the ways in which we can listen to stories told and hear the unconscious echoes of generations in the conflicts of today. She will present an approach to understanding and untangling defense patterns that protect the child or adolescent and can interfere with growth into satisfying adulthood. Through her case stories\, she demonstrates ways in which we can respond to the unconscious dynamics of Emotional Inheritance and weave them into a resilient\, thriving life in the present. \n\nAndy Cohen \nA Mom Can’t Always Be a Grownup!\nAndy Cohen\, clinician. author\, and artist advocates for acknowledgement of \nthe versions of our identity stored unconsciously as we navigate throughout life. \nShe will discuss some ways in which these resting selves are awakened in parents\, as well as in the therapists or educators listening to life experiences of children and adolescents. \nCohen’s work involves helping clinicians\, and the frustrated or fearful parents who seek help for their children\, understand and tolerate that this natural process can present challenges to our emotional core. It requires an openness to discovering oneself and our silent\, hidden emotional triggers. Most important\, it can provide a valuable tool for developing a therapeutic alliance in our clinical work. \n\nClaudia Luiz\, PsyaD \nThe Making of a Psychoanalyst \nStudying Emotional Education… \nClaudia Luiz is a seasoned psychoanalyst author\, and educator who understands the importance of preparing the mind for self-discovery. She will share vignettes of journeys with her patients that demonstrate how this is accomplished in the therapeutic process. \nTogether with Andy Cohen and Patricia Bratt\, Dr. Luiz will discuss the ways the clinical process is enhanced when all involved are helped to be open to the range of feelings induced in the momentum of self-discovery. This inspiring and thought-provoking presentation will leave you with practical insights and tools to enhance your therapeutic practice. \n\nPaige Niezelski \nDirecting 22 after-school programs for the Greater Philadelphia YMCA\, after years teaching throughout Asia\, convinced Paige Niezelski of the benefits of Mindfulness Practices with children\, adolescents\, and adults. During the lunchtime presentation\, she will share some of her personal stories and experiences with Mindfulness\, and offer a demonstration of the technique.

SUMMARY:Brown Bag Lunch | Adolescents in Conflict: Clinical Approaches
DESCRIPTION:with Patricia Harte Bratt\,PhD \nBrown Bag Lunch Series \nWednesday\, May 17\, 12:00 – 1:00pm (Eastern Time) \nOn Zoom – 1 CE \n$17 administrative fee for each CE certificate. \n \n\nYou sit in the office with a smoldering adolescent\, staring away from you at the wall. Clearly\, there will be no talking. \nMeanwhile\, his anxious\, hovering mother waits outside\, after insisting\, you have to help him get friends. He doesn’t know how to have a conversation. \nWHAT DO YOU DO? \nTherapists often ask me\,”How do you relate to adolescents?” Or “Do I need to meet with parents?” “Should I tell the kids I’m meeting with their parents?” “Do I say something if a child is cheating at a game?” “What if they tell me something in confidence and the parents insist I tell them everything?” \nHow do we maintain confidentiality and still have the essential relationship with parents? \nWe can answer all those questions\, but most important for us is\, how to be with and work with kids? They are not just mini versions of adults. They have their own ways of perceiving the world and relationships. \nAdolescents speak in symbols\, defying us to decode. Let’s talk about how to navigate the precarious world of working with adolescents and helping them become resilient adults. \n\nCourse Objectives – Participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify at least three ways to explore the symbolic communications of adolescents and adolescents;\nDesign interventions that address the special ways we need to communicate with adolescents to help them feel comfortable\, safe\, and spontaneous in the therapeutic milieu;\nDevelop a toolbox of strategies working effectively with parents\, while preserving the confidentiality and integrity of the child’s treatment.\n\n\nPatricia Harte Bratt\, PhD \n…is a psychoanalyst and psychotherapist\, practicing in Livingston\, NJ and NYC. She is a Director of ACAP\, its Trauma and Resilience Programs\, and ICPS. Dr. Bratt is President of the National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis (NAAP)\, and of the NJ State Advisory Committee for Psychoanalysis. Her publications include\, “Consulting the Patient: The Art of Being Together”\, “Nurturing Resilient Children”\, and Mutual Growth in the Psychotherapeutic Relationship: Emotional Resilience\, published by Routledge. \n  \nJoin me in discovering the challenges and rewards when working with adolescents who are: \n\ninvincible\,\nultra-sensitive and narcissistic\,\nuncertain and ambivalent\,\nhelp-refusing and needy\, and\nall while being resentful and rejecting.\n\nThey are joyful\, funny\, and often – thanks to technology – know more about the world than their adults. So we have to be at top game to connect when it is most vital for maturation. \n  \n\nFor questions or information email Susan Carnes at info@acapnj.org or call 862-216-2400 \n\n\n\n\n For CE Information- visit our website\, https://acapnj.org/ce-information/ \nThere is a $17.00 Fee for CE Certification processing. \nCounselors\, Art Therapists\, Marriage/Family Counselors\, LPC’s \nSocial Workers \nNJ Psychoanalysts \nNY Creative Art Therapists \nPsychologists \nNurses \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn about ACAP’s CE programs and nationally accredited psychoanalytic program at \nwww.acapnj.org \nLearn about ICPS’s regionally accredited MAs in Clinical Mental Health Counseling \nand in Psychoanalysis at \nicps.bgsp.edu
