SUMMARY:Virtual Beginner Parent and Caregiver SM Skills Training Group
DESCRIPTION:6 Thursdays Online \n\n\n\nCaregivers of children with SM of all ages and from any state/country \n\n\n\nBlake Mooney\, LMHC will be leading a basic parent and caregiver skills training group. This group will provide you with coaching in PCIT-SM\, our evidence-based intervention for selective mutism. These guided practice sessions will help you better lead your child’s verbal practices on your own\, in real life settings. Each session targets a specific skill (see schedule below) that we practice together with therapist feedback right in the moment. There will be home practice assignments between sessions. These small groups also provide opportunities for parents and caregivers to meaningfully connect with other families who are undergoing similar challenges.For More Information: Contact smgroup@kurtzpsychology.com or (212) 658-0110 ext. 124

SUMMARY:Selective Mutism Training Institute for Professionals
DESCRIPTION:The Selective Mutism Training Institute (SMTI) is an in-depth 2-day training course for professionals working with children diagnosed with selective mutism (SM). The workshop is intensive\, and skills-based with the goal of increasing competence in providing empirically-supported treatment of SM to professionals with beginner and intermediate exposure and skills in assessing and treating SM. We maintain a high instructor to participant ratio to ensure adequate time for modeling and video role-play of the skills. \n\n\n\nThis is a unique opportunity for mental health professionals\, speech-language professionals and graduate-level trainees to learn cutting-edge\, innovative techniques to effectively treat children with SM. Small group\, video consultation with the course instructors following the 2-day training is included in the cost\, allowing participants to further apply the skills in their own unique clinical settings. \n\n\n\nThe workshop starts with providing a framework for understanding the etiology of SM\, highlighting the role of nature\, nurture\, temperament\, and developmental differences in the onset and maintenance of SM\, social anxiety\, and other common comorbidities. Strategies for behavioral\, developmental\, and language assessment will be reviewed\, including how to conduct observations of children with SM. Evidence-based interventions will be covered in depth\, including behavioral strategies such as stimulus fading\, shaping\, positive reinforcement\, and parent education/coaching. State-of-the-science interventions\, such as intensive treatments\, group-based interventions\, and school consultation will also be taught. Speech and language conceptualization\, assessment\, and interventions will also be reviewed.  \n\n\n\nPlease note: At this time\, this training is only offered in English. SMA is not able to offer translation services. Registration is limited to 30 registrants. \n\n\n\nEarn up to 11 CE Credits \n\n\n\nFor more information and to register\, visit here: \n\n\n\nhttps://selectivemutismassociation.ce-go.com/selective-mutism-training-institute-for-professionals-20-12-2023-571
