Friday, May 11, 2018
Program: 9 a.m. -
12 p.m.
The goal of this program is to teach participants how to clearly and efficiently document the intake, treatment plans, progress not es and therapy outcomes in a manner that would satisfy the most discriminat ing auditor. Topics include: measuring and quantifying behavior, diagnostic interviewing, and writing treatment plans and progress notes. The presenta tion is based on Dr. Wiger’s book, The Clinical Documentation Primer, which is used in many graduate schools. This training will also help parti cipants save much time that is often taken after the session or at the end of the day. Most therapists do not write progress notes during the session. Their reason is often that it takes away from focusing on the client. This training will emphasize ways to write this material during sessions in a m anner so that it does not take away from the session rapport and disclosure , but actually enhances these effects.
This session qualifies for 3.0 continuing education credits. You must attend th e full 3-hour program to get continuing education credit for the event.
