The DSM-5 text revision (DSM-5-TR) is the first published revision of DSM-5 since its original publication in 2013. This presentation will cover the rationale for the DSM-5-TR as well as the revision process, and will then focus on the most clinically important changes. These include addition of diagnostic categories (prolonged grief disorder; stimulant-induced mild neurocognitive disorder, unspecified mood disorder, and a category to indicate the absence of a diagnosis), the provision of ICD-10-CM symptom codes for reporting suicidal and non-suicidal self-injurious behavior, modifications of selected the diagnostic criteria (persistent depressive disorder, avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder, delirium) and updates in terminology (e.g., replacing “neuroleptic medications” with “antipsychotic medications or other dopamine receptor blocking agents” throughout the text and replacing “desired gender” with “experienced gender” in the text for Gender Dysphoria).

See our DSM-5 TR Training Flyer for more information.

The purpose of this training is to review aspects of competency-based clinical supervision as well as multicultural and relational supervision models. Special attention will be provided to supervisor awareness and insight about how their own diversity identity variables impact supervisory alliances. Participants will also engage in self-reflection regarding how issues of power are explored, or not, within a supervisory relationship as well as bi-directional microaggressions in the supervision process.

Eating disorders (ED) are serious conditions that can have a profound mental and/or physical impact, however, recovery is achievable with good prognosis being associated with early intervention (Chesney, Goodwin, & Fazel, 2014). ED commonly begin during adolescence or young adulthood (APA, 2013), which overlaps with the age of the majority of the college population. Hence, it is important for mental health providers working at university counseling centers to be able to understand common issues related to disordered eating and ED, accurately assess, and provide short-term service (e.g., ED therapeutic assessment) as appropriate and/or provide referrals for ED treatment (i.e., following the American Psychiatric Association Level of Care Guidelines; APA, 2006). Additionally, ED affect everyone regardless of gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, or other identities (e.g., Eisenberg et al., 2011) with marginalized populations being disproportionately impacted (e.g., Diemer et al., 2015; Marques, et al., 2011; Wade, Keski-Rahkonen, & Hudson, 2011). As our college population is becoming more and more diverse, it is crucial for mental health providers working at university counseling centers to provide culturally sensitive assessment and interventions for ED. At the conclusions of the workshop, participants should be familiarized with ED assessment, intervention, and common issues related to disordered eating and ED, including multicultural considerations, within the college mental health context.

The current U.S. political climate is ripe with leaders asserting ideas about and plans to help all citizens achieve the “American Dream”. This dream is predicated on what Franklin (1999) outlined as achieving visibility, which includes the pursuit of validation, legitimacy, respect, dignity, recognition, satisfaction, and identity. Systemic oppression, microaggression, marginalization, and culturally motivated violence disrupt visibility for people of color (POC) (Franklin, 1999). The cumulative effects of these factors significantly impact psychological wellbeing (Brownson et al., 2012; Bryant-Davis & Ocampo, 2006; Cabral & Smith, 2011; Franklin, 1999; Smith, Chesin & Jeglic, 2014). Pairing clients with clinicians of similar racial identity, modifying treatment conceptualization and approach to fit the POC experience, and honing non-POC clinicians’ diversity consciousness have been identified as effective strategies (Bryant-Davis & Ocampo, 2006; Cabral & Smith, 2011).

An empirically validated brief cognitive therapy (BCBT) for the assessment and treatment of suicide risk will be covered. A key part of the model is the construct of hope, recognizing that hope is a skill with identifiable component parts. The BCBT model applies to all aspects of clinical care, including assessment, day to day clinical management and ongoing treatment. Critical elements include an understanding of motivation to die and suicide intent, along with empirically validated clinical interventions including a commitment to treatment statement, crisis response planning/safety planning, methods restriction, and targeted skill development and self-management. Clinical cases will be integrated and particular interventions demonstrated.

The purpose of this six hour training is to examine a diversity of evidence-based approaches to conduct multicultural supervision. The training includes models, applications and interventions applicable to a wide variety of training situations in which social justice and multiculturalism are central. The Guidelines for Clinical Supervision in Health Service Psychology are also core principles for discussing various aspects of the supervisor role, including ethics, relationship building, addressing issues in competence and development, and assessment, evaluation, and feedback. Participants will also have the opportunity to discuss important topics such as intersectionality, cultural humility, and mentoring as a foundational practice in multicultural supervision.
