WORKSHOPS - Fall 2011-12
CCP590 A
Theory and Practice of Counseling: Clinical Assessment & Diagnosis
Instructor:Judith Bralove
Clinical assessment and diagnosis involves a practical application of several skill sets and bodies of knowledge. This 10-hour workshop is divided into two parts: Part I: These first five hours will provide a comprehensive overview of the DSM-IV-TR (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, Text Revision) including how it is organized, controversies, and the proper use of it. Part II: The second five hours will focus on assessment skills, including interviewing strategies for the mental status exam (MSE) and suicide and risk assessment. The MSE provides a format for organizing the objective and subjective information about a client's presentation and symptoms that can lead to a correct diagnosis. A thorough suicide assessment includes the degree and intent of a client's suicidality as well as other clinical considerations
CCP590 B
Theory and Practice of Counseling: Play, Activity, Expressive Approach
Instructor: John Carew
This course begins with a review of theories and rationales for using play, activity and expressive techniques in counseling children, and adolescents. Next, we will explore the application of these ideas to several common presenting problems. Then, we will explore the use of several expressive media (such as clay, puppets, clay, movement, music), and experiment with using some of these media in counseling. We will finish the course with an exercise in designing a play, expressive or activity intervention for use with a particular client, or group of clients
CCP590 D
Theory and Practice of Counseling: Providing Career Counseling
Instructor: Robert Prague
This workshop will introduce two major components of career counseling: Self-Awareness and Exploration of the World of Work.

Students will learn how to develop a practical application of the career counseling support for their clients.
