Clinical Interviewing, Suicide Assessment and Intervention

Workshop Alert: Integrating Strengths-Based and Traditional (Medical Model) Approaches to Suicide Assessment

4 Comments

Tomorrow, December 4, I’m doing a quick one-hour version of my “Integration” workshop. Obviously, my leaning is toward the strengths-based, constructive approach to suicide assessment and treatment, but sometimes we need to integrate strengths-based approaches with the traditional medical model. That’s what this workshop is all about.

The workshop is presented on behalf of the Professional Counseling Association of Montana — the brainchild of Cynthia Boyle, a Ph.D. student in the University of Montana’s counseling and supervision program. Here’s a link to their website: https://pcamontana.org/

In case you’re attending . . . or interested . . . here are the slides:

    1. Hello Feven,
      Sorry for missing this message. This was online, but I’ll be doing more, similar to this, and I’ll keep posting what’s coming up, hopefully with more notice in the future!
      Thanks for being interested. JSF

  2. Hi John,

    I hope this email finds you well. Apologies for the delayed response.

    I am writing to invite you to collaborate with our association, a group of psychological therapy professionals dedicated to addressing critical mental health challenges. Notably, Korea currently has the highest youth suicide rate among OECD countries, a fact that underscores the urgency of our mission.

    Our association members have been trained in Adlerian psychotherapy by renowned international Adlerian experts. As part of our ongoing efforts, we aim to learn from your expertise to strengthen our interventions. Specifically, we are working to develop and disseminate suicide and self-harm prevention programs tailored for mental health professionals in Korea.

    We would be honored if you could deliver a 3-hour Zoom workshop first on Strength-Based Interview for Self-Harm and Suicidal Youth. Additionally, please share details regarding your preferred payment process.

    To ensure smooth communication, we have arranged for a skilled translator to assist during the workshop. Thank you for considering this important initiative.

    We look forward to the opportunity to learn from your expertise.

    Julia Park, Ph.D Chair of Korean Adlerian Psychology Association M 82-10-9112-4238 E pa_julia@naver.com
