Annette Ephroni, APRN describing this unique learning experience:
Workshop Description:
Please join us for a lively morning conversation. We have invited experts from three diverse theoretical perspectives to discuss a single clinical case. We will explore differing ways of conceptualizing the problems faced by this patient through each theoretical lens. Then, we will consider how differing clinical interventions would follow from these divergent ways of formulating the case. Mara Haight, CMHC, Director of the Salt Lake City Rape Recovery Center, will speak from a feminist multicultural perspective. Robert Krause, DNP, lecturer from Yale Schools of Medicine and Nursing, will discuss an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy approach. Jim Poulton, PhD, IPI National Faculty and former chair of IPI SLC, will present an object relations viewpoint. The case will be given by Annette Ephroni, APRN.
Learning Objectives:
Participants will describe three theoretical perspectives on a clinical case of a depressed patient.
Participants will analyze and compare the primary themes in the case from three evidence-based perspectives, including object relations, acceptance and commitment therapy, and feminist multicultural analysis.
Participants will list at least one psychotherapeutic intervention stemming from each of these three evidence-based models that would be applicable to this case.
