SUMMARY:Motivational Interviewing -Treating Clients with Mental Illness &  Substance Use Disorders
DESCRIPTION:The MS Department of Mental Health and the Mental Health Association of South MS is pleased to offer this virtual training opportunity to you. \nMotivational Interviewing is an empirically based\, client-centered counseling approach in which\nthe counselor uses a non-confrontational & non-judgmental style to resolve ambivalence that\nprohibits change (Miller & Rollnick\, 2013; Rollnick\, Miller\, & Butler\, 2008). Without addressing\nambivalence in treatment\, a client’s progress may be inhibited due to clinical errors that may be \nunknown to the counselor. The purpose of this presentation is to assist clinicians with identify-\ning and understanding factors associated with the successful engagement and treatment of”difficult to treat” individuals with mental health and substance use disorders. 3-hour virtual event. \nRegister here >>

SUMMARY:How are the Children Experiencing SED and Parents Doing\, Really? Comparing 2021-2022
DESCRIPTION:As 2020 ended\, the National Federation of Families surveyed over 1000 families representing every state\, to capture authentic family experiences with both the school and mental health systems during the year. This survey produced an infographic which portrayed the extent of the struggles that families had faced with COVID-related challenges and the effect these challenges had created for their children. NFF is repeating this survey to learn more about how families and their children have fared during 2021. This data will again be represented through an infographic. These two data sets will be reviewed by our presenters\, and they will share the implications that they anticipate for both the education system and the mental health system for 2022 and the outlying years. \nThis webinar will be facilitated by Lynda Gargan\, Ph. D.\, Executive Director\, National Federation of Families\, and will be offered in a “table talk” format. Dr. Reeves will offer a clinical perspective on the data and will share stories and perspectives from her current work with children and youth in a psychiatric setting. Dr. Hoover will update participants regarding “lessons learned” from the pandemic and steps that educators are taking to support families. Both presenters will provide exciting resources for the workforce that supports families during the event. \nRegister here >>
