SUMMARY:Talking to Adolescents About Substance Use Disorder
DESCRIPTION:Engaging adolescents in conversation at developmentally appropriate levels can be a challenge for adults. Speaking to adolescents about substance use disorder can be even more daunting. This event engages providers in recognizing the barriers that negate effective conversations with adolescents about their behavioral health and how to overcome them. Via a reflection on best practices\, evidenced based techniques\, and scripts and tips\, providers will be empowered to reflect on and revamp their communication strategies with adolescents who are at risk for substance use disorder or are already affected. \nPresented by: Laura Hinds\, MSW\, LCSW \nContinuing Education: 2.0 CEUs available for Ohio CSWMFT Board\, Ohio Chemical Dependency Professionals Board\, and Ohio Certified Peer Supporter licenses \nClick link to register: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/OLn1nXb2RUGJ5L44L8IuAA

SUMMARY:Refill Your Cup: Self-Compassion for Helping Professionals
DESCRIPTION:Self-compassion is often misunderstood as self-indulgence or weakness\, yet research shows it is strongly linked to resilience\, emotional well-being\, and sustainable helping. This interactive\, experiential workshop introduces participants to the science and practice of self-compassion through evidence-based strategies developed by Dr. Kristin Neff and colleagues. \nThrough guided reflection\, experiential exercises\, discussion\, and practical skill-building\, participants will explore the three core components of self-compassion—mindfulness\, common humanity\, and self-kindness—and learn tools they can apply in both their personal and professional lives. \nParticipants will leave with practical strategies to reduce self-criticism\, build resilience\, and reconnect with their inner resources so they can continue showing up with greater presence\, compassion\, and authenticity. \nPresented by: Yasmin Irfani\, M.S.\, C-PRS \nCEUS Available: 2.0 hours for Ohio CSWMFT Board and Ohio Certified Peer Support licensees \nClick link to register: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/r9mlM5xSRdCe8ciyWYeAiw
