This is the monthly reoccurring GBAB meeting for UMHCA. It takes place on the fourth Friday of each month.
Please join us for our Inaugural Webinar on August 30th at 12:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m.!
Words Can Hurt: Staying Competent in LGBTQIAPG+ Terminology
Is it sexual or affectional orientation? What is asexual, pansexual, genderqueer? What does the G stand for? When working with LGBTQIAPG+ clients, the terminology is not only expansive, it has changed quickly, leaving many counselors unsure of appropriate terms and their meanings. Using outdated, stigmatized terms can cause harm to clients, the therapeutic relationship, and the client's view of counseling. This interactive webinar educates both new and seasoned professionals on the most updated terms, as well as problematic terms to avoid. 2 NBCC CE’s Available. Cost: $10-25

Board Meeting September 2019
Utah Date Night presents:
"We can lead you through the eight essential conversations that will give you the best chance at creating your own happily ever after." (Eight Dates, Introduction)
Strengthen and deepen your love with a fun, ingenious program of eight life-changing conversations—on essential topics such as money, sex, and trust—from two of the world’s leading marriage researchers and clinicians.
Navigating the challenges of long-term commitment takes effort—and it just got simpler, with this empowering, step-by-step guide to communicating about the things that matter most to you and your partner. Drawing on forty years of research from their world-famous Love Lab, Dr. John Gottman and Dr. Julie Schwartz Gottman invite couples on eight fun, easy, and profoundly rewarding dates, each one focused on a make-or-break issue: trust, conflict, sex, money, family, adventure, spirituality, and dreams.
The conversations in Eight Dates are one of the most powerful tools you can add to your relationship right now.

“Compassion is one of the most important declarations of strength and courage known to humanity. It is difficult and powerful, infectious and influential. It is a universally recognized motivation with the ability to change the world.” Paul Gilbert
Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) was developed with and for people who have significant difficulty experiencing compassion for themselves and from other people. This introductory 1-day workshop represents a unique opportunity for American mental health professionals to gain some insights into the origins and nature of CFT from its founder, Professor Paul Gilbert. CFT is rooted in an evolutionary model of human psychology and draws heavily on attachment and social rank theory. Participants will be introduced to a bio-psycho-social model that explains why our minds are ‘tricky’ and easily prone to mental health problems; along with methods for cultivating inner motives for caring and compassion that can counteract these dispositions. The workshop will also introduce clinicians to some of the compassionate mind training practices that support CFT.

October 4-5, 2019 | Lindon, UT | 8:30 am-5:00 pm This workshop will provide an advanced introduction to the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Model, a unique and compassionate model of psychotherapy that locates the source of healing within the client. IFS is an evidence-based model that has proven effective in the treatment of such wide ranging physical and emotional challenges as rheumatoid arthritis, depression, anxiety, addiction, sexual compulsivity, trauma, eating disorders, self loathing, dissociation and suicidal ideation. IFS has surged in popularity in recent years as clinicians have discovered its radical effectiveness with otherwise entrenched populations. IFS was the basis for the popular Pixar movie Inside Out, and is being used in such diverse environments as inner-city classrooms, professional athletic trainings, therapy centers, and peace negotiations. Particular attention will be given to ways in which the IFS and CSAT models can be integrated for enhanced clinical outcomes for clients struggling with sexual addiction and betrayal trauma. Open to All Licensed Professionals. Learning Objectives Articulate the origins of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. Describe the unique components of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of therapy: Self, Exiles, Managers and Firefighters. Conceptualize the function of Manager parts and their protective roles in a client’s system. Identify Firefighter parts and the intent to help that is hidden under their sometimes dangerous ways of coping. Articulate the qualities of Exiled parts, the burdens they carry, and the distinction between the two. Identify solutions to the most common ways therapists get “stuck” with the model. Understand the natural multiplicity of the human experience. Conceptualize the positive intent of all parts, expressed in the statement “All Parts Welcome”. Identify the 8 Cs of the Self: curiosity, compassion, confidence, courage, clarity, creativity, connectedness, and calmness. Understand case conceptualization in IFS therapy with specialized clinical populations such as sexual addiction, betrayal trauma and dissociation. Understand the essential role that the Self of the therapist plays in therapy. Understand and experience the nature of blending and unblending with parts. Articulate the goals of IFS therapy with direct and indirect access. Identify the steps of healing in the IFS model. Identify the most common Manager fears and how to effectively address them. Process advanced topics in IFS such as polarizations, parts negotiations, and working with therapist’s parts in the therapeutic process. Articulate the complexities of skillfully merging the IFS, CSAT, and 12 step models. Identify specific options for further training including how to become a certified IFS therapist through the Center for Self Leadership.
