A 6-hour training with Samson Teklemariam, LPC, CPTM

March 28, 2024

8:30am-4pm

PRESENTATION: Telehealth is proving to be sustainable and effective as treatment centers have transitioned traditional counseling services to online programs. Counselors are tasked to translate face to face skills to telehealth with limited training to recreate foundational helping. This presentation will provide counselors with the tools to create virtual counseling groups which can be applicable to various levels of care. Participants will obtain skills to enhance group cohesion and participation via telehealth. This presentation will provide participants an opportunity to observe the application of evidence-based practice group skills, such as "rolling with resistance", for application in their own daily virtual work. 

As a result of the training, participants will be able to:

  • Build foundational group structure in a virtual environment;
  • Identify three ways to build virtual group cohesion; and
  • Perform virtual rolling with resistance skills.
