Every day about 123 Americans die by suicide. And, rates of suicide are increasing every year. As therapists, we need to know why people ideate, attempt and die by suicide at increasing rates, and how to address it therapeutically to strengthen a person’s resolve to stay alive, by relieving the feelings that caused the ideation.
Join the SWEET Institute and Jodi Aman, LCSW-R and learn about:
- Why people ideate about suicide & the difference between suicide and self-harm,
- The best way to get into re-authored conversations when someone is thinking about suicide,
- The critical commitment to getting your client to stop cutting, and
- How to assess needing a higher level of care.
Here's what our attendees are saying about SWEET Webinars:

Jodi Aman, LCSW-R has been a psychotherapist for over two decades. After earning her master’s in social work at Columbia University in 1996, she received an Advanced Post-Graduate Certificate in Narrative Therapy in 2006, and joined the faculty at Dulwich Centre to teach Narrative Therapy in the U.S., Canada, China, Ireland, Mongolia, Australia, and Norway, focusing on couples, teens, trauma and anxiety recovery. Her popular YouTube channel, Practical Miracles, teaches people to understand themselves, evolve past fear, and finally release that internal self-critic. Having clawed her way out of her own emotional crisis, Jodi shares her story of stepping into her personal power, and that of many of her clients in her bestselling book You 1, Anxiety 0, Win your life back from fear and panic. Her anxiety workbook for teens will be released in July 2020.
There are a handful of states that the NASW does not cover because those states want to maintain their independent authority to approve, or not, providers and courses. In New York State, the Office of Professions controls the approval process. We are an approved provider by the NY State Office of Professions. In other words:
- In the State of New York, SWEET Institute is approved by the Office of Professions under Dr. Sidor Psychiatric Services as a CEU provider for social workers (#SW-0471) and mental health counselors (#MHC-0127).
- Our live and self-study webinars are individually approved by the NASW National CE Approval Program in 46 additional states. SWEET courses are NOT approved by the NASW National CE Approval Program in: Michigan, New Jersey, and West Virginia.
