Many young people/teens believe they are simply anxious, so they struggle to identify specific trigger thoughts. Writing is the first step in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to bringing stressful thoughts into consciousness. Only when we are conscious of our thoughts do we gain the power to question them.

How do we get our teams or staff to start talking about who they are and how they impact clients? How do our experiences impact how we show up and how we think? In this workshop we reflect on what triggers us in conversations on race and identity. We work through those issues to facilitate spaces that allow for connection, joy and meaning.

๐Ÿšจ URGENT: Social workers in Guam and the Mariana Islands are currently without clean water, electricity, and essential supplies after Typhoon Bavi. Even as they face serious hardship themselves, many social workers are continuing to support their communities.

The NASW Foundation has activated our Social Work Disaster Assistance Fund to provide them with urgent emergency relief, but we need your help to meet the need. Every gift makes a direct difference.

Regarded by Freud as the โ€œroyal road to the unconscious,โ€ dreams have curiously been relegated to the margins of psychotherapeutic practice since the dawn of the โ€œtalking cureโ€ over a century ago. In this workshop we will question this marginalization and attempt to reignite interest in the dream as a vessel for self discovery and reckoning with unconscious desire.
