Overview:

Join Ellen Biros, LCSW, C-PD, for an intensive seminar on effectively treating your most challenging personality disordered clients. Gain valuable insights and skills to recognize and treat individuals with Antisocial, Borderline, Narcissistic and Histrionic Personality Disorders. 

• Manage the manipulative and controlling antisocial personality
• Improve the narcissist’s understanding of empathy and identify the motivating factors in their pursuit of perfectionism
• Understand the mind of a histrionic whose lack of boundaries and need for attention will challenge your tolerance and empathy
• Assist the borderline client in dealing with their tsunami of emotions, self-harm tendencies, and desire to create chaos

This course will provide you with reliable and practical skills that can be immediately applied in your daily practice. You’ll explore various treatment modalities, including Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Therapy. Don’t miss this opportunity to finally break through the mysteries of these disorders and make a difference in the lives of your clients.

Objectives:

  • Identify and diagnose your antisocial, narcissistic, histrionic, and borderline clients.
  • Examine client symptom presentation, treatment, and management of each cluster B client type.
  • Explain how to manage antisocial, narcissistic, histrionic, and borderline symptomatology and how this can better assist with treatment planning and reduction of symptoms.
  • Identify and counter treatment blockades to make therapeutic gains.
  • Implement CBT, DBT, and MI techniques to manage emotional dysregulation, improve self-worth, reduce impaired perceptions, and improve empathy.

Course materials are only available to enrolled students.
