Overview:
Family psychoeducation is an evidence-based treatment for individuals with psychotic disorders, including those with first-episode psychosis. However, family caregivers differ in the intensity of family psychoeducation services that they desire. In this workshop, we will review the format and delivery of a step-based family psychoeducation protocol designed to meet the varying psychoeducational needs of family caregivers of individuals with first-episode psychosis.
Join us for virtually for this 1-day training event occurring 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time on Wednesday, Aug. 4. Please note: Space is limited and reserved for mental health professionals who are actively providing services in First Episode Psychosis programs.
Certificates of completion will be made available to workshop attendees.
