The purpose of this 1.5 credit continuing education training is to improve the social worker’s/practitioner’s skill of case conceptualization from a trauma-informed perspective and how to present this strengths-based perspective to the client for purposes of collaborative contracting. Information will be presented regarding trauma-informed assessment and screening as applied to working with clients in an outpatient behavioral health setting. Participants will have the opportunity to practice conceptualizing case examples (break-out in small groups) and share the presenting needs to the client (large group) for purposes of contracting for treatment.
