Workshop Description

Personality-disordered individuals have long been considered to be some of the most difficult consumers of mental health services for psychologists and other mental health clinicians to treat effectively. While deeper level work remains necessary, recent research has confirmed the importance of skills training in an adjunctive role in promoting long-term positive outcomes. Component analysis studies also suggest that skills training alone can help clients improve in a number of domains.

 

Drawing from the most recent literature, outcome trials, case studies, and 20 years of clinical experience, Jeff Riggenbach, Ph.D., will describe an integrated, evidence-based treatment approach for offering skills training to these individuals who often leave clinicians feeling frustrated, stuck, and disheartened. Leave this 2-hour virtual workshop equipped with new tools in your clinical toolbox to help these clients find their lives worth living.

Learning Objectives 

Participants will be able to: 

  1. Learn motivational skills for increasing insight and eliciting client buy-in.

  2. Implement DBT skills to help clients regulate emotions and tolerate distress.

  3. Utilize schema mode work with narcissistic patients.

  4. Conduct complex chain analysis to help clients increase awareness and facilitate new coping.
