Smartphones in Sessions: Transform Intrusion to Engagement (Part 1 & Part 2) – A full-day workshop using action methods in working with clients and their use of smart phones.

Explore, in action, situations that arise in sessions related to client use of smartphones (e.g., taking a call, texting, checking social media, showing photos or texts to the therapist). You’ll learn psychodramatic interventions to transform intrusions into engagement without taking on a shaming parental role. You’ll also have a safe place to process your own responses to smartphones and clients’ use of them in sessions. Limited to 30 participants.

This is one of the many spectacular sessions offered at the 48th Annual Southwestern School for Behavioral Health Studies. A great way to get your continuing education in the splendor of the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort in Tucson.
