    Presenter - David Fuks

    This workshop is designed to help social workers and other human service professionals who are in management/leadership roles. It will help participants to see distinctions between direct clinical services and responsibilities involved in managing clinicians, paraprofessionals and staff in complex organizations. Additionally, ethics explorations will use vignettes taken from management of human services organizations. Emphasis will be given to assure that participants can see how knowledge and self awareness gained from clinical experience can be transferred into management experience and where new knowledge must also be acquired.  - Approved for 6CEs

    Integrating Contemporary Neuroscience into Clinical Social Work Practice

    Friday December 3rd, 2010
    9-4:30 pm

    Presenter - Julie M. Rosenzweig

    Recent advances in neuroscience have significantly changed our conceptualization of well-being, including interpersonal relationships, information processing, and the effects of traumatic stress and adversity.  Integrating neuroscience knowledge into practice invites practitioners to re-evaluate their current methods of assessment and intervention, add greater specificity to their work, and enhance thir clinical skills.  During this workshop, participants gain a clear understanding of the neural processes underlaying emotional regulation, aggression, memory encoding, learning, and risk-reward, as well as the role of early attachment experiences and psychological traumatic events on brain functioning.  Building on this foundation, a framework for applying relational neuroscience in practice is presented using brain-based principles of change and neuro-integrative therapeutic strategies.
