According to Dr. Len Sperry, good therapists treat clients, but great therapists treat clients following a plan. First and foremost, great therapists spend time understanding the client, assessing their needs within their current system, and derive a treatment plan out of the assessment. Whether a formal or general assessment, understanding presenting issues helps not only ensure client’s goals are being met but allows for effective evidence-based treatments to be implement and measurements of progress for accountability. In this webinar, Dr. Muth will provide a framework for general assessments including screening tools for various psychological disorders that may require further formal assessments or referrals. Additionally, Dr. Muth will provide an overview of formal psychological assessments including an introduction to commonly used tests such as the MMMPI-3, PAI, MCMI-V, MFAST, BHI, and TSI-2.

Why Attend?

  • Broadened skills: While general assessments are typically covered in counselling education, formal psychological assessments are rarely covered in detail. Even if therapists do not plan to conduct formal assessments as part of their career, they may still receive collateral information that requires them to have awareness about formal assessments and various common tests. This webinar will fill gaps in education and leave attendees equipped to read formal assessments that they may encounter in their counselling work.
  • Improved care: Utilizing screening tools and guiding clients when referrals or additional support may be necessary can improve overall effectiveness of therapeutic work. This webinar will cover a myriad of screening tools and provide an overview of biological and psychological factors to consider during a general assessment process.
  • Increased effectiveness: Including assessment tools in therapeutic practice can add to case conceptualizations and inform treatment plans leading to more thorough understanding and treatment of clients.
