This recording will provide you with the assessment tools you need to unmask self-harming and suicidal thoughts, adapt interventions from DBT and CBT to work with the distinct challenges of treating suicidal and self-harming adolescents, and manage the specific confidentiality and liability issues that accompany working with minors.

There’s too much at stake to be unprepared!

Finish this critical program feeling confident and capable in using these vital assessment tools and treatment techniques to bring hope and healing to vulnerable young clients!
