Description: Designed for school-based mental health professionals, this interactive training connects assessment, service planning, progress monitoring, and practical counseling skills. Participants will strengthen their ability to understand student needs, match supports to the appropriate level of intensity, develop meaningful goals, monitor progress, and use evidence-informed strategies within the school setting, Morning Module: Case Conceptualization & Counseling Systems Learn how to bring together information to guide supports and services. Participants will explore how to match students to the appropriate tier and intensity of support, recognize when services may need to be increased or faded, develop meaningful and measurable IEP counseling goals, create an intentional plan for services, document progress, and track outcomes over time. The module also addresses collaboration with teachers, families, and outside providers, as well as effective case transitions when students change providers, schools, or levels of support. Afternoon Module: Counseling Skills in Practice Knowing a counseling approach is one thing but using it effectively with a student who is anxious, dysregulated, disengaged, or reluctant to participate is another. This hands-on module introduces practical, school-based strategies informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused approaches, and Motivational Interviewing (MI). Through brief instruction, realistic school-based case examples, and structured practice, participants will build skills in cognitive reframing, behavioral activation, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, solution-focused questioning, and communication strategies that reduce defensiveness and increase student engagement.

1-Day Workshop LGBTQ, trans and gender fluid people are showing up at every stage of social identity from pre-school to seniors and are part of the fabric of every segment of our society. Still, claiming one's sexual identity is scary if LGBTQ - vulnerability, cultural disdain, peer exclusion and social isolation are key challenges for the person who identifies outside of the hetero-normative social structure. In this highly interactive workshop, we will explore culturally responsive concepts and topics related to working with an LGBTQ population of students. Participants will walk away with a deeper understanding of the range of people within the LGBTQ community who have always been a part of the human experience. You will examine language and labels, be challenged to give up pre-judgments, learn how to be an ally, gain greater comfort in interactions with the spectrum of LGBTQ identified individuals, and create a welcoming environment for the LGBTQ community in your school.
