Domestic violence is often overlooked in therapy, particularly when abuse is subtle or disguised as relationship conflict. This 90-minute webinar equips therapists with the skills to recognize signs of domestic violence in both individual and couples therapy settings.

This presentation will address how social workers can support parents through micro-level clinical care and support the mental health of families in schools, including macro-level changes that support both parents and caregivers. Emphasis will be placed on how social media increases parental/youth stress, and the roll of school shootings in parental/youth stress. Supporting “good-enough” parenting will also be addressed.

This course offers a trauma and social justice-informed framework for providers to learn about "invisible disability," ableism in healthcare and its impact, how life-altering chronic conditions can be traumatizing and re-traumatizing (even if the DSM doesn't agree), and a unique utilization of evidenced based modalities to restore the mind body relationship.
