Many clinicians find marital therapy a difficult treatment modality. The intimate relationship often presents as a chaotic expression of individual and collective dynamics where regression and intensity are at a peak. Borrowing from Ken Wilber’s Integral model, Dr. Habib’s integral approach to the marital relationship conceptualizes the complexity of the intimate relationship which leads to interventions that are informed by all quadrants, lines, and levels of development that simultaneously impact the clinician’s encounter with the dyadic unit. It will include a diagnostic model of the couple’s process leading to interventions that create change. This seminar is robust in therapeutic strategies that extend well beyond communications training and conflict management. This seminar will provide systemic focus concerning the central role of dyadic regression, while providing specific techniques on how to stabilize and enhance these processes. It will also define a marital line of development that proposes the higher stages of intimate evolution. We will examine collective cultural messages that both help and hurt many couples ability to feel love and contentment.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
This workshop will help attendees to:
Identify the disruptive diagnostic pattern in a couple’s relationship that results in frustration and disillusionment.
Know where to begin the intervention and what treatment format to utilize.

COURSE DESCRIPTION:
People of color who identify as transgender and/or gender non-conforming experience unique struggles due to the intersection of anti-transgender bias with structural and interpersonal racism. It is critical that mental health providers recognize the needs of this highly marginalized population who often have increased psychosocial, medical, and mental health concerns.
We will utilize the 2011 report of the National Transgender Discrimination Survey to provide data points to demonstrate the increased levels of discrimination for trans individuals of color. We will provide clinical vignettes and case scenarios in order to help with case conceptualization and treatment planning. We will discuss the importance of using a gender affirming, culturally competent lens and holistic wrap- around approach in working with youth and their families.
Lastly, there will be time for discussion and brainstorming of how participants (individually and within their organizations) can become more trans-informed and provide gender affirming and culturally competent care.
Identify and demonstrate interventions to implement gender-affirming, culturally appropriate/competent strategies to support transgender communities and trans communities of color via education, social activism and direct clinical services

Suicide is on the rise in the United States, having gone up 24% between 1994 and 2014. It is the most common psychiatric emergency that therapists will encounter. Recent research has identified suicide-specific therapies that are effective in treating both suicidal ideation and behavior. The problem is that most therapists are not aware of them nor have they been trained in them, so most suicidal clients do not receive these potentially lifesaving treatments. For therapists with an active clinical practice, suicide is an occupational hazard that can be both emotionally and practically devastating—and 25% of family members of suicidal patients take legal actions against the patient’s mental health treatment team.
This workshop will provide an invaluable opportunity for therapists to implement these empirically validated, evidence-based treatments for suicide that are fast becoming the standard of care.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is the leading approach to helping couples both resolve relationship distress and nurture effective interpersonal functioning and strong, lasting bonds. Feelings are often hidden, unexpressed or misunderstood. In EFT, we help couples learn how to deal with their feelings together, reach towards each other, and be responsive in more loving and positive ways.The format involves informative lectures sprinkled with videos, which include watching couples learning the same methods that we are covering in the workshop. There is time to do exercises in private with your partner drawn from EFT. We teach couples how to move out of isolation and frustration towards security, emotional safety, and long lasting relationship satisfaction. Research shows that 7 out of 10 couples that go through EFT move from marital distress to marital satisfaction.
