1 hour

Overthinking, Rumination, and Anxiety: Practical Interventions for Cognitive Overcontrol is an advanced clinical training designed to help mental health professionals effectively conceptualize and treat clients who struggle with persistent, repetitive thinking patterns. The course differentiates rumination, worry, and adaptive problem-solving while examining the cognitive, behavioral, and metacognitive mechanisms that sustain overcontrol, including perfectionism, intolerance of uncertainty, and threat monitoring. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), this course provides an integrative, evidence-based framework for intervention. Clinicians will learn
how to target maintaining factors such as reassurance-seeking, avoidance, and cognitive fusion, while also adapting interventions for co-occurring conditions including anxiety disorders, depression, trauma-related disorders, and obsessive-compulsive spectrum presentations. Emphasis is placed on practical application, with structured tools, in-session strategies, and between-session interventions that can be immediately implemented across clinical settings.

Utilizing AI To Enhance Your Counseling Practice

Leesa M. Robertson

1 hour

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing mental health care, creating new opportunities for clinical support, administrative efficiency, documentation assistance, psychoeducation, care coordination, and client engagement. As AI-supported tools become more common in counseling and behavioral health settings, clinicians must understand both their potential benefits and their limitations.

This course examines the emerging role of AI in counseling practice through a clinical and ethical lens. Participants will explore how AI may support certain aspects of care while also raising concerns related to confidentiality, informed consent, bias, accuracy, data privacy, documentation integrity, client autonomy, and overreliance on automated systems.

Rather than presenting AI as a replacement for clinical judgment, this course emphasizes that mental health professionals remain responsible for assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, risk management, ethical decision-making, and the therapeutic relationship. AI may assist practice, but it cannot replace clinical reasoning, cultural responsiveness, or the human connection central to effective counseling.

Reporting suspected abuse, neglect, exploitation, or maltreatment is a serious legal and ethical responsibility, especially for mandated reporters. Because reporting laws vary significantly by state, professionals must understand not only when a report is required, but also who must report, where the report must be made, and how quickly action must be taken.

This course provides a state-by-state overview of mandatory reporting requirements for suspected child abuse and vulnerable adult abuse across the United States. Participants will review the circumstances that may trigger a reporting obligation, the required timelines for making a report, and the procedures for contacting the appropriate child protective services, adult protective services, law enforcement, or other designated agency.

The course also emphasizes the importance of timely action, accurate documentation, and understanding the limits of professional discretion when abuse or maltreatment is suspected. By the end of the course, participants will have a clearer understanding of how reporting requirements differ across jurisdictions and how to respond appropriately when concerns arise.
