Description of Event:
The purpose of this course is to normalize and address the experiential aspects of supporting clients expressing suicidality in the outpatient therapy setting. This course will support clinicians' understanding of their responsibility in relation to suicidality as it presents in the outpatient context. Participants will learn how to conceptualize liability as it relates to risk at this level of care. Outpatient therapy standards of care ranging from conceptualization, assessment, mitigation and ongoing treatment/referral will be established. Lastly, participants will be able to define and apply the “Three Factor Model” to all stages of clinical work while supporting clients expressing suicidality.
Learning Objectives:
Participants will be able to:
1. Create a concrete framework for addressing client suicidality such that outpatient clinicians feel informed instead of fearful when managing suicidality.
2. Describe the 3 Factor Model, particularly as it applies to ongoing risk management.
3. Develop cohesive assessment, mitigation, and treatment practices for clients experiencing suicidality.
