Orientation Training Overview
Charleston, SC
Training Fee: $850/person
This orientation training is designed for all clinical staff who engage in the treatment
and/or clinical supervision of MST cases, as well as those in support and administrative
roles for MST programs. Attendees will receive instruction in the following areas:
- systems theories, social learning theory, and major psychological and sociological models;
- research regarding serious emotional disturbance in youth;
- research relevant to problems experienced by targeted youth (e.g., learning disabilities, substance abuse); and,
- research on interventions used in MST (e.g., empirically validated family and marital therapy approaches, parenting behavioral training, cognitive behavior therapy, school consultation).
Additionally, the training utilizes role-plays and exercises designed to stimulate critical thinking about the treatment process and to demonstrate how MST informs the following:
- client engagement;
- individual, family, and systems-level assessments;
- the evaluation of what evidence therapists use to draw conclusions about the correlates/causes of a problem;
- the development of intervention strategies and specific interventions; and
- how to determine whether an intervention is being effective.
