The Advanced Clinician Seminar Series is a new clinical format designed specifically for advanced clinicians seeking content and consultation commensurate with their level of expertise. In 2024, the program offers three of these free seminars featuring an expert clinician and moderator who will offer consultation, case conceptualization, and treatment planning on your most complex cases. Attendees will be expected to self-identify as advanced clinicians, bring structured case presentations for possible discussion, and fully participate in a seminar-style discussion.
This particular seminar is hosted by Judith Beck, Ph.D., an expert in Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Dr. Beck will lead discussions and provide insights into advanced clinical techniques and approaches, offering attendees a unique opportunity for professional growth and development. Participants can expect a dynamic and interactive learning experience, with ample opportunities for networking and collaboration with fellow advanced clinicians.
