Generally defined as the use of God or religion as tools to gain power
and control by the abuser, spiritual abuse is one of the most overlooked
forms of abuse in clinical settings; however, the willingness to address
it will give clinicians added insight into many of their clients and how to
more effectively and holistically address treatment. In this workshop,
theories of spiritual abuse and approaches to understanding it are
explored through pastoral, developmental, and clinical lenses. Case
studies, personal reflection, and other critical thinking activities will help
participants understand how the construct of spiritual abuse is relevant to
clinical practice and apply this knowledge to assessment and treatment
planning.

Bullying behavior is often associated with childhood and adolescence.
One can assume that it is a behavior we outgrow. The reality is
different. Bullying behavior is a reality that does occur in the workplace.
Interestingly, those in the helping profession are in need of help when it
comes to dealing with difficult behavior. In this workshop participants will
become aware of the nature of workplace bullying behavior. Participants
will gain knowledge in how this problem is being addressed nationally
and internationally. We will look at strategies to use and apply when
confronted with bullying behavior and how to remain resilient.

Codependency Barriers to Parenting
Joyce Pleasant, LICDC-CS, ICCS
March 25, 2015
8:30 A.M. – 4:00 P.M.
FEE: $45
TSome of the toughest clients presenting for therapy are plagued by
issues of co-occurring trauma and addiction. Although the popular 12step approaches to addiction treatment are still appropriate for clients
with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related
diagnoses, rigid application of the disease model and 12-step principles
may prove more harmful than helpful for clients in need. In this workshop,
participants will learn how to blend traditional knowledge about the
disease of addiction and 12-step approaches to recovery with the latest
research and practice knowledge on trauma. As a result, participants
will find that they will be able to better connect with addicted clients who
struggle with trauma, and deliver the help that they so desperately need in
a way that honors their experience.

PThe Center for Disease Control (CDC) has classified prescription drug
abuse as an epidemic. According to a 2010 study, approximately 7
million people in the U.S. or 2.7 percent of the population, annually abuse
prescription drugs. Many people who get involved with illegal drugs start
with prescription drugs as they are frequently viewed as safer than illegal

A codependent parent may seem like the ultimate care giver, hovering
over their child, smoothing the path, making everything “just right.” The
disadvantage is that this type of parenting does not allow children to learn
on their own. Codependent parents miss opportunities for teaching and
guidance because they are often too busy doing everything for their kids.
This workshop will review co-dependency and the effects on the family.
Participants will begin to identify patterns of behaviors, recognize relapse
and warning signals of codependency, and explore techniques to assist
clients in re-thinking old habits.
