Happy May, everyone! First of all let me say that I am honored and excited to be serving as your local chapter president. I hope you will join me in welcoming our new slate of board officers, as well. We have a wonderful group of creative professionals who are committed to supporting MFTs throughout the Inland Empire. I would also like to remind you all that you are welcome to attend an IE-CAMFT board meeting at any time. They are held every fourth Friday of the month, after the monthly training. We would love to have you participate and share your thoughts and ideas with us.
As usual, our program committee is working hard to coordinate trainings aimed at further developing professional skills and maintaining top-notch ethical and legal standards of care in the Inland Empire therapeutic community. In our most recent IE-CAMFT sponsored presentation: “Creative Therapy for Adolescents: Brain-Based Approaches that Enhance Emotional Regulation and Resilience,” Georgie Wisen-Vincent provided us with invaluable insight on adolescents and brain development, as well as how this connects to parenting and providing therapeutic interventions. In May we look forward to learning more about hoarding from Carol Rose Adkisson’s presentation: “Step (Carefully) Inside the Secret Life of Hoarders.” We hope to see you there!
