Three days of top tier education - with national and local leaders sharing their expertise on current best practice and future trends on topics across psychology. We’ll start with a Keynote from Dr. Zac Imel, co-author of The Great Psychotherapy Debate. Workshops will include required CEs such as Suicide prevention with Dr. Nadia Al-Dajani, Ethics and BPD with Dr. Shannon Sauer-Zavala, Advanced Supervision with Dr. Noelle Laforge, Socio-cultural distress with Dr. Sebastian Barr, and Cultural humility with Dr. Kaen Tao. In addition to our fantastic presenters for required CEs, we have excellent featured presentations in Process-based psychotherapy from Dr. Clarissa Ong, common factors in family and couple therapy with Dr. Eli Karam, and utilizing AI in therapy by Dr. Adam Lockwood. This is only a sample of what you’ll get across three days, which also includes health psychology workshops on treating pain and sleep disorders and some panel discussions as well! We’re also adjusting our convention schedule to allow for more time to connect and network with colleagues over meals! You won’t find a better deal for workshops, meals and meaningful connection than the KPA Convention.
