Clinical Interviewing Skills: A New Framework 3.0

LIVE WEBINAR

Friday, September 25, 2020

12pm - 2pm (EDT)

2 CEU for LMSWs, LCSWs, and LMHCs

There is a science and there is an art to Clinical Interviewing Skills. The more we try to avoid or ignore it, the more we find ourselves in need of honing in on it.

But where do we start? Let us start with the SWEET Model, that enables us to learn both the science and the art, and to make a major difference.

Clinical Interviewing Skills: A New Framework.

At the end of this webinar, you will have:

Learned the framework of the Socratic Motivational Practice to increase the effectiveness of your interviewing skills to help your patients and clients.
Learned the Principles of the Socratic Motivational Practice to form clinical interviews with your patients and clients.
Increased your tools to talking with patients and clients by identifying at least one thing you will start doing differently, at the end of the webinar, as a result of the Socratic Motivational Practice framework.
Everything you want in one place, including an illustration of how to implement the newly learned skills during our role plays.
Received your certificate by email immediately after your post-test and evaluation are completed.

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.

What is the SWEET Institute?

SWEET’s vision is to facilitate the empowerment of all clinicians, advocates, and agencies, and in turn, that of patients and clients they serve. Through empowerment, self-care will be promoted, burnout will be prevented, and excellent patient/client care will be upheld. At SWEET, we emphasize “the Why, the How, the What, and Then What," while using the Socratic and Desire Methods. SWEET’s mission is to facilitate empowerment through education, multimodal trainings, and a community established for all clinicians, advocates, and agencies, so we can all grow together.

How different are these webinars? Will I be able to interact with the Course Facilitator(s)?

Absolutely. One of the keystone paradigms of the SWEET Institute is the collective learning process. This is accomplished using the Socratic Method and is based on the most up-to-date adult learning theories. Integrating this process into our in-person seminars and live webinars creates a unique and dynamic learning experience for all of us. It is essential to us that a comfortable learning environment is created, so that anyone who attends our webinars or in-person seminars participate and are able to take risks and push themselves to gain deeper knowledge. In our webinars, this will be done through our chat feature. Also, both Mardoche and Karen are available for consultation and clarification following webinars and in-person seminars or by email at [email protected].

How will I get CEUs?

At the end of the webinar, you will be completing a post-webinar exam for online learning, and an evaluation of the course. Once complete, your certificate will be emailed to you.

Are you available for in-person or online training for agencies, including those outside New York?

We are! We will first need to learn more about the specific needs of your agency/organization. This way we are able to customize our seminars/webinars to ensure that it is the best fit possible for the staff.

I’m an LMHC/LMSW/LCSW, do you provide CEU credits?

SWEET is currently approved to provide continuing education credits to clinicians in 47 states. We are approved by the New York State Department of Education to provide CEU credits to LMSWs, LCSWs, and LMHCs. Our webinars are individually approved by NASW in 46 additional states. The only states we currently cannot provide CEU credits for social workers are Michigan, New Jersey, and West Virginia.
