Class 1: Mental Health Diagnosis for the Insurance-Based World: Using the Medical Model While Holding on to Therapeutic Ideals
10:00 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern | 3 CE Credits
Regardless of the modality, much of mental health treatment is driven by the medical model. This requires diagnoses in order to access services, especially those that are reimbursed by health insurance. A diagnosis, while necessary for insurance reimbursement, can carry a great deal of stigma. At the same time it can clarify why someone is distressed. Being told of a mental health diagnosis can result in relief, fear, distress, anger, grief, or any combination of emotions. Consequently, those who diagnose have an immense amount of power.
The primary goal of this workshop is to help clinicians ensure diagnostic accuracy. Dr. Hasson will discuss factors that can influence the accuracy of diagnosing, including the quality of the interview, base rates, implicit biases, confirmation bias, environmental factors, and availability heuristics. She will also review different methods of interviewing, including the benefits and drawbacks of different diagnostic interviewing strategies and screening measures.

Class 2: Safe Love, Fierce Compassion: Guiding Black Couples Toward Emotional Well-Being
1:45 PM - 4:45 PM Eastern | 3 CE Credits
Black couples face unique relational challenges influenced by cultural narratives, systemic inequities, and intergenerational trauma. For licensed therapists and psychologists, understanding these dynamics is crucial to providing competent and affirming care. This 3-hour workshop equips professionals with tools to foster emotional safety, cultivate fierce self-compassion, and support Black couples in building resilient, emotionally healthy relationships.
Through guided learning, reflective discussion, and interactive activities, participants will:
- Examine the cultural and social factors that influence the relational well-being of Black couples.
- Acquire strategies for helping couples overcome biases, engage in fair conflict resolution, and express emotions effectively.
- Discover how to break the cycles of past relational trauma that manifest in present conflicts.
- Strengthen clinical skills to help Black couples build emotionally safe, compassionate, and thriving partnerships.
This workshop blends clinical frameworks with culturally responsive care, ensuring professionals leave with practical, immediately applicable tools to support Black couples on their journey to relational healing.
