CDP News: Jan. 24, 2014
Welcome to the latest edition of CDP News! We like to spend this time each week reviewing recent happenings in and around the Center for Deployment Psychology, while also looking ahead to upcoming events. Like many places around the country, the wintery weather this week combined with the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday on Monday, took a large bite out of our work this past week. We’ve got several items on the horizon to more than make up for it however!
First up, this Wednesday we’ll be bringing our University Counseling Center Core Competency program to the University of Texas – Tyler. It’ll be our first core UC4 program of the year, so we’re looking to pick up right where we left off last year! For more information about the UC4 program or to inquire about bringing it to your local college or university, please visit our UC4 section here.
Our Speakers Bureau program will be in Seattle, WA on Wednesday and Thursday to deliver a two-day workshop on Prolonged Exposure therapy.
Speaking of PE training, after numerous requests, the CDP is going to be piloting two online PE training sessions in the spring. One will be presented 10-11 April 2014 via Adobe Connect and the second will be held 8-9 May 2014 in Second Life. These will be great for those individuals who are interested in PE training, but have been unable to travel to attend any of CDP’s workshops in person. More information about these training opportunities will be available soon! Keep an eye on our training calendar, Facebook and Twitter pages for the registration news on these and other events.
This week’s Staff Perspective column was by Dr. Diana Sermanian, who took a look at provider sustainment, self-care and avoiding compassion fatigue. It’s a very important topic for all providers to keep in my, particularly those who treat a military population. As always, the Research Update has plenty of great journal articles, relevant news and useful links from all around the Web.
That’s all for this time. We’ll see you next week, when we hope it’ll be a little warmer outside!
