Upcoming Training in NJ with Louise Hayes, September 2016

[DENNIS TIRCH]

Hi All,

 

My dear friend and respected colleague Louise Hayes will be coming to my home state of New Jersey on September 16-17 to give a training called Thriving Adolescent. I am super excited to share this news, not only because I think so much of Louise, but because the work she is doing with young people is absolutely fascinating. She has coupled her background in positive psychology with her deep knowledge of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to create a method of treating adolescents that brings a truly developmental focus to working with young people. And she has broken down concepts like defusion, mindfulness, and values-based living in a way that is easy for adolescents to understand and implement in their lives.

 

If you work with young people in any capacity at all, I strongly encourage you to attend the workshop. No background in ACT is necessary, and the training is not only for clinicians but teachers, counselors, social workers—really anyone who works with adolescents.

 

You can learn more about the training and register here.

 

And if you know of anyone who may be interested, please make sure to forward this email along to them. I’d really appreciate it!

If you receive this email more than once, please pardon me for cross-posting to several of the discussion lists I am involved with.

I just feel very strongly that Louise’s training is excellent and I want to spread the word.

By the way, I have no commercial relationship or professional investment in this workshop, other than my wanting my friends and colleagues to have the best that evidence based therapies can offer right at their fingertips.

Sending Good Wishes, 

Dennis

Please read the following so we can be in touch as soon as possible:

If you are contacting me about clinical, confidential or urgent concerns, please reach me directly by telephone at 845-664-1498. I find that email is not the most efficient way for us to be in touch, particularly during clinical hours, due to the volume of email that arrives. Being available to you is important to me. If you contact me via email and don’t hear back soon enough, please do call me at 845-664-1498, as I am available at that line most of the time, and will return your call within the day under typical circumstances. Thank you. Sending warm wishes to you and yours, Dennis
