Adolescence is one of the most transformative periods in our lives. Existing research on this stage of our lives has never been more descriptive and plentiful. This presentation will provide a useful conceptualization of the three stages of adolescent development by briefly reviewing clinical considerations, neuroscience, and empirical research. We’ll consider identity, separation, attachments, and repairs as clinical areas of focus when working with teens who are struggling with relationships, school issues, and family. We also will look at how feelings and thoughts shape adolescent internal and external life.

A list of selected readings will be provided at the conclusion of the presentation for use in your clinical practice with teens of all ages and to support your engagement with parents.

Led by Dr. Alysa Slay. As clinicians, we are all leaders, serving as guides for other individuals or teams. For some, one's role as a leader may be an official designation such as a director or supervisor. In terms of the therapeutic relationship, a clinician's role can be that of a guide or leader. The therapeutic process often involves a clinician guiding (leading) their client in the exploration of thoughts, feelings, behaviors and relationships in order to navigate the world in a more adaptive way.

In this session, we will explore a framework of conscious leadership and how the manner in which one shows up as a leader in clinical practice can impact the therapeutic process with clients. Specifically, we will examine how a clinician’s experience of the context in which one practices, may unknowingly influence how one shows up as a leader or guide.
