Preconvention Institute—Thursday, November 6, 2014 (6.0 CEUs)—Full-day Session 9:00am-4:00pm
"Providing
Spiritually Sensitive Supervision for Social Workers Abstract: Providing supervision – whether clinical supervision for entry level unlicensed mental health professionals or professional supervision to licensed experienced mental health professionals – is an opportunity to aid in the development of the supervisor’s and the supervisee’s sensitivity toward the client’s spirituality. Spiritually sensitive supervision encompasses a view of self, others, the work, the world, and the transcendent. This workshop will address ethical spiritually sensitive supervision by looking at the spiritual position of the supervisor and supervisee, the content of supervision and the context for supervision. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Preconvention Institute—Thursday, November 6, 2014 (6.0 CEUs)—Full-day Session 9:00am-4:00pm "Decision-based Forgiveness Intervention" Abstract: Although an ancient and faith-based path to healing in a relationship, social workers seldom have a formal way to think about and use forgiveness as a therapeutic intervention. This session will present an overview of decision-based forgiveness and show how it has been effective in the presenter’s practice for over thirty years. He will draw from actual case examples and research to show the benefits experienced by clients, and will demonstrate how a forgiveness intervention can lead to much quicker positive results in individual, couple and marital therapy. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Preconvention Institute—Thursday, November 6, 2014 (3.0 CEUs)—Half-day Session 1:00pm-4:00pm Dr. Diana Garland and Dr. Gaynor Yancey "Congregational Social Work" Abstract: The presenters will describe congregational social work as a specialized field of professional practice based on their own work over the past 40 years with congregations, their research with congregations and congregational social workers, and a live panel of social workers currently serving professionally as congregational social workers. The preconvention institute will address the diversity of roles and identities of congregational social workers and give examples of job descriptions and the path into congregational social work. |
