CMH 6465 - Clinical Skills II (Adult): Crisis, Trauma, Complex Issues


3 cr

This course is the second of two clinical classes on specialized interventions with adults. This course will integrate empirical and functional aspects of the therapeutic process when intervening with individuals with mental health and addictive disorders. Students will learn to employ core clinical interventions and treatment modalities for people with complex issues, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy and other specialized approaches. The course also will offer techniques for working with people during times of individual, family or community crisis (mental health or health crisis, accident, death, etc). The complexity and heterogeneity of co-occurring disorders will be closely examined. There will be a special emphasis on how an individual’s experience of trauma complicates clinical work. Unique ethical and boundary issues will be addressed.
