    Program Description:
    The United States is experiencing a significant mental health crisis, making it imperative that we support the existing and grow the future mental healthcare and behavioral workforce. However, we can’t stop there; multiple solutions are necessary to address the mental health crisis, including the role of technology and telehealth, including Artificial Intelligence. Mental health digital tools have the potential to increase and expand access and options to care and improve population health and health equity. However, regulatory confusion and reimbursement barriers potentially stand in the way of scalable dissemination and implementation of these novel tools. This program will describe existing and emerging technologies and the evidence supporting their use, their potential to increase access to care and improve health equity, and what is being done to address the existing barriers within healthcare. 

    Level of Instruction:
    Intermediate

    Learning Objectives:

    1.     Describe the existing and emerging digital tools and how they are different from each other

    2.     Summarize how digital tools can expand access and health equity to marginalized populations

    3.     List the regulatory and reimbursement barriers to full health care implementation for digital tools

    4.     Describe the critical role psychology and psychologists play in the area of emerging technologies

    About the Presenters:

    1 CE Credit

    Program Description:
    As practitioners, we understand that self-care is very important for our overall functioning, however, we sometimes do not prioritize it. This 1-hour lunch and learn session is meant to assist providers by discussing ways to prioritize self-care by using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) elements of mindfulness, values, acceptance and defusion techniques on their own. This will also assist in improved understanding of the elements to assist our clients. Therefore, this course can be both an introductory course or a brief review of ACT elements.

    Level of Instruction:
    Introductory

    Learning Objectives: 

    1.     Participants will be able to describe the definitions for values and defusion and how they related to self-care

    2.     Participants will be able to identify a simple mindfulness practice that can be implemented regularly

    This workshop is presented by the Utah Psychological Association & Nevada Psychological Association plus a coalition of 16 other State, Provincial and Territorial Psychological Associations.

    Program Description:
    Have you addressed all the telehealth compliance requirements beyond PSYPACT that can differ from state to state?

    Many psychologists underestimate the complex web of state regulations beyond PSYPACT authority, often assuming that licensure alone ensures compliance. In reality, up to 20 additional state-specific regulations exist, each with nuanced requirements that could impact the legality of your services. Navigating these complexities has been challenging, with little practical guidance on identifying, tracking, and complying with nuanced differences across jurisdictions.

    Join this Master Class led by Dr. Marlene Maheu, the pioneer in telebehavioral health compliance. Gain the expertise to stay competent and confident as you expand your practice. Dr. Maheu will guide you through essential terminology, and then engage you in a thought-provoking discussion, equipping you with the resources to grow your telehealth services safely across state lines or international borders.

    Plus, take advantage of these valuable bonuses:

    Managing Emergencies: Learn how to manage emergencies across jurisdictions with real-life case examples tailored to US and international practice.

    Interactive Audience Participation: Engage directly with Dr. Maheu and peers to address your most pressing interjurisdictional concerns in an interactive, collaborative learning telehealth experience.

    Documentation: Get actionable suggestions for documenting telehealth services, including key clauses for your informed consent process to manage telehealth-specific risks.

    Telesupervision: Discover essential skills and documentation practices to provide telesupervision effectively across state lines.

    No-Cost Resources: Access over a dozen no-cost, digital telebehavioral health resources available 24/7 to maintain compliance now and in the future.

    Informed Guidance: Leverage Dr. Maheu's 30 years of telebehavioral health experience, with her exclusive insights from working with more than 89,000 telehealth professionals.

    Compliance Tracking Spreadsheet: Benefit from the convenience of a downloadable state and international compliance tracking spreadsheet, complete with column headings and rows corresponding to regulations identified and described in this Master Class. 

    Modeling: Observe Dr. Maheu's practical approaches and screen presence in real time to minimize screen fatigue and strengthen the therapeutic bond.

    This Master Class goes beyond PSYPACT basics—delving into the complexities of interjurisdictional practice to address real-world regulatory and ethical challenges. Bring your most pressing compliance questions and leave with the skills and clarity to expand your practice across state lines and international borders. Join us to fuel your passion for serving clients wherever they are while enjoying peace of mind from effectively managing legal and ethical risks.

    Learning Objectives:
     1. Participants will be able to identify state-specific compliance requirements that extend beyond PSYPACT and analyze how these requirements vary across jurisdictions.
     2. Participants will list practical strategies for managing the complexities of interjurisdictional practice and implement effective documentation, informed consent, and emergency protocols to ensure compliance across state lines and international borders.
     3. Participants will name at least a dozen no-cost resources to guide them in future decision-making for working over state lines

    Program Description:
    Climate change has been declared a public health crisis. In our region, extreme weather events, such as heat waves, flooding, intense storms, prolonged droughts, and increases in vector-borne disease are causing significant economic, physical, and mental health problems. Individuals, families, and communities continue to struggle with coping and adapting to these adverse impacts of climate change. Transformational Resilience is a model and set of skills that will enable individuals and communities to better adapt to climate change, particularly the mental health consequences. Resilience can be enhanced through acquiring healthy emotional regulation skills, strengthening relationships with others and the ecological web on which life depends, recognizing a sense of purpose, and defining values that contribute to our wellbeing and the wellbeing of others. This interactive workshop will provide an introduction to the Transformational Resilience Model, present a community-level resilience project, and enable attendees to develop their own project.

    Level of Instruction:
    Introductory

    Learning Objectives:
    1. List at least 4 ways that climate change is impacting mental health, especially for marginalized and vulnerable community members.  

    2. Describe how their emotional and psychological reactions to climate change might

    impact their ability to help individuals and communities adapt.

    3. Discuss the ethical dilemmas of either addressing or not addressing the climate crisis

    with clients and others as an informed mental health professional.

    4. Summarize the Transformational Resilience Model and Skills and how it can create equity.

    5. Create a potential community-based Transformational Resilience Project.

    6. List at least 2 potential barriers and at least 1 potential opportunity for developing a Transformational Resilience Project.

    About the Presenters:


    Rebecca MacKenzie, LICSW began sharing her concern for environmental degradation and its effects on all life in a graduate class on International Social Work in 1999. In 2011, Rebecca trained to be an Awakening the Dreamer (ATD) presenter, a multi-media experiential program which begins with illustrating environmental, psychological, spiritual, and social degradation due to the climate crisis. The ATD ends with empowering hope and a call to action for humanity as we awaken to interdisciplinary, systemic solutions. Her work with the International Transformational Resilience Coalition creates conversations within the public and private sectors to build capacity for resilience. As a result of this work, she has developed The Transformational Resilience Project (TRP), highlighted in this workshop. The TRP is meant to be replicated in other regions beyond her own. Rebecca is a clinical social worker with private practices in NH and VT. She is a member of the NH Disaster Behavioral Health Response Team as well as the NH Healthcare Workers for Climate Action’s Behavioral Health Working Group and Climate Justice Working Group.
