Location:
Many of us enter the field of counseling or social work with the bright-eyed idealism that we will save lives and make the world a better place for others. All too often, however, we forget that these helping professions, while filled with many personal rewards, are also filled with some intangible “occupational hazards.” Through group discussion and applied learning activities, this workshop will help participants identify and understand sources of job stress or the “occupational hazards” for mental health practitioners. Additionally, participants will consider the impact personal stressors have on professional well-being. Within this context, the concepts of burnout and compassion fatigue will be explored. Participants will learn specific strategies to enhance professional and personal resiliency along with how to incorporate these strategies into a plan for wellness. The overall goal of the workshop is to equip workshop participants with the ideas, tools, and resources that cultivate a sense of excitement and positive outlook to sustain fulfillment for the duration of their chosen career.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is an innovative and dynamic interpersonal communication technique developed to enhance the motivation and self-efficacy of clients, patients, and employees. MI was originally introduced as a revolutionary counseling skill set for those working with clients who have chemical dependency issues. Today, MI is used in a myriad of settings, including medical, educational, and business to overcome resistance to change and to build potential for success. This workshop will outline the basic principles of MI and will offer ample opportunities for attendees to practice the skills taught to increase their own confidence and competency. Workshop participants will also gain awareness of the many ways MI techniques can be applied in their own work settings. Dr. Briggs has a very energetic and enthusiastic personality with a presentation style that is interactive and engaging. This workshop is a must for anyone who seeks to gain greater skill in interpersonal effectiveness.

Workshop participants will have the opportunity to complete the MBTI and use their personal information in fun-filled activities throughout the workshop. Upon completion of the workshop, participants will have a better understanding of self and others and the dynamics that occur in daily interactions. This workshop will be of particular interest to students who wish to know more about themselves and others, students who seek to know more about their personal career path, students who wish to better understand their personal leadership style, and anyone who has heard of the MBTI but never had the opportunity to explore its relevance in their own life.

Location:
The preteen and teen years
are often a tumultuous time in life.
Adolescents sometimes display characteristics of childhood and adulthood
simultaneously, presenting a challenging paradox for parents, teachers, other
family members, peers, and even themselves. Many important factors influence teen
cognitions, emotional states, impulses, and behavior. In addition, adolescence is typically a time
of great instability. Some of the most
common issues faced by these not-too-young-but-not-very-old people
include: relational problems with
parents and/or siblings, peer pressure, romantic relationships, academic
pressure, time management, and planning for the future. Individual stressors such as trauma,
depression, anxiety, other mental health concerns, pregnancy, self-injurious
behavior, academic deficits, law infractions, aggressive behavior, and alcohol
and drug abuse compound the pressure on teenagers. Yet, oftentimes, adolescents are the
healthiest members in their families.
Participants in this workshop will explore the incredible ability of
adolescents to manage situations that would severely challenge most
adults. The workshop will incorporate
case studies from the presenter coupled with small and large group activities. Students who wish to understand how to approach
preteens and teens in helpful and empathic ways will find this workshop to be
of particular interest.

When
asked where and how they learned about human sexuality, most adults will reply
that they learned about sexuality from their friends or from a health class in
middle or high school. Some will simply roll
their eyes and say that they learned about human sexuality from “the talk” with
their parents. Few will say that they
received open, in-depth education on the topic of human sexuality. The purpose of this workshop is to dispel
myths and misconceptions about human sexuality and to provide students with the
fundamentals of physiological and psychological determinants of human sexual
behaviors and to examine social values and norms associated with human sexuality
in contemporary American society.
Workshop topics will include: sexuality research, sexual anatomy and
physiology, reproduction, contraception, sexually transmitted infections,
sexual coercion/sex crimes, consensual sexual behavior, gender identity, sexual
development across the lifespan, sex and the media, sexual aids and
enhancement, sexual dysfunctions and therapies, and sex and culture. The class will include lecture, discussions,
group interaction, films and print media.
Upon completion of this workshop students will be well informed about
human sexuality in contemporary American society. This workshop will be of particular interest
to counselors, social workers, psychologists, nurses, teachers, and anyone who
wishes to expand their knowledge and understanding of human sexuality.
