Topics include: the history of AAT, the Human-Animal Bond, theoretical foundations, definitions of service, therapy and Emotional Support Animals (ESA), clients with mental health disorders who may benefit from AAT, the health benefits of interacting with animals, and wellness strategies for clients who have pets at home. The focus of this workshop will be on dogs as they are the most commonly used therapy animals.

Ethics Training
“Why good therapists make ethical errors: possible causes and how to identify them."
3 hours credit will count toward ethics requirement, approved by the Ohio Social Worker, Counselor, and Marriage and Family Therapist Board: Counselors and Social Workers #RCS051205; MFT’s #RTX071301
Much of our training in ethics teaches us what is considered unethical by law and standards of practice. This program assumes you are generally aware of unethical behavior, and assumes you are a competent therapist.
The purpose of this program is to explore counter transference and co-transference reactions that can lead to ethical mistakes or errors in judgment. We will also explore warning signs that could lead to poor decision-making.
When we are dealing with difficult clients there are ways to approach the therapy that can keep clear boundaries to assure ethical errors are avoided.
This program qualifies for ethics training for Counselors, Social Workers and MFT’s.
Goals: Participants will
*Be able to name three common areas where counter transference issues are seen.
*Identify 3 personal indications of counter transference.
*Name two examples of clients who are likely to create counter transference issues, including identifying special issues when treating children.

“Understanding Jungian Functions & Attitudes”
Stephen T. Weed, M.S., Relational Care Associates
4 CEU hours each program, approved by the Ohio Social Worker, Counselor, and Marriage and Family Therapist Board. Counselors and Social Workers: #RCS051205; Marriage and Family Therapists: # RTX071301
Carl Jung’s theory of Psychological Types (1921/1971) continues to influence how we perceive, understand, and make decisions about our immediate, personal world. Jung first noted and defined our current notions of Introvert & Extravert and detailed the mental processes of Sensation & Intuition and Thinking & Feeling. These attitudes and functions form the foundation for the MBTI® that has become the most popular personality assessment tool on the planet.
In this session we will learn about Jung’s original theory. Therapists will begin to learn how to identify Jung’s functions and attitudes in everyday situations.
This program is intended for anyone who has an interest in Jungian theory or in training as a Sandplay therpists. It will qualify toward certification through the Sandplay Therapists of America and CEU credit for counselor’s, social workers, and MFT’s in Ohio.
Goals: Participants will
*Be able to label the four functions and name at least one characteristic of each.
*Be able to label the two attitudes and name at least one characteristic of each.
*Understand why it is helpful to recognize these in Sandplay therap
Stephen T. Weed, M.S. has been working with personality type concepts for 17 years and is a certified Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® administrator. Along with his team at Relational Care Associates and the D&S Group, he has developed a 3-tiered set of Introductory, Intermediate, and Advanced courses on personality type, totaling over 30-hours of experiential, conceptual, and discussion-based instruction.
Along with teaching, his strengths include working with small groups around team building, communication styles, and learning styles to improve working environments and personal growth.
Stephen’s current interests follow the 8-Function 8-Archetype Model proposed by Jungian scholar John Beebe, PhD, and other applications of Jungian archetypes to everyday situations and fields.

This is a question posed in an online discussion. Many answers were offered – too much work, too little training, etc. So why should you make the extra effort to become proficient at working with kids?
Simply put they are the future of the world. Treat them today and not only do they have a shot at being healthy productive adults but also in they can raise healthy productive children contributing to the next generation's health.
More personally there are not enough child therapists out there; this means more referrals for you. You can build your practice and enrich the world at the same time. It’s a win win!
Why not? The complaints: that kids are harder to work with; you have to balance working with the parents; there is also more outside contacts with teachers, guidance counselors and doctors which can all become potential referral sources if you handle it right growing your practice even more. If you treat children you will find your practice grows.
Why not? Most parents want after school times but some are preschoolers, some are home schooled, and many who are having problems with behavior at school do well with a break from school once a week. I find it works best to see about half kids and half adults for balance. I learn a lot about what is going on with kids in general from the childhood stories shared by adults. As we all know even adults need late in the day appointments. Sometimes we are able to see kids at lunchtime and before school. You need to balance your hours just like you would do with any client.
I am planning a multi program series for those who love kids but know nothing about treatment with children and for those who are already working with kids but are looking for knew ideas of how to have success in treating them.
