Social Recovery Therapy Course - Dr Joanne Hodgekins

This course will introduce participants to Social Recovery Therapy (SRT), a CBT-informed intervention that aims to improve social and functional outcomes for people who have experienced psychosis. The ethos of SRT is to promote social recovery through increased time spent in structured activities that are meaningful to the individual. Social recovery is both personally valuable and important in its own right, as well as a facilitator of better mental health outcomes. SRT focuses on working with individuals and systems around them, e.g., family, friends, mental health/other professionals, and activity providers. This helps individuals to engage in meaningful activities within a system that supports and encourages them in doing so, which helps the engagement in activity to last.



The aim of the course will be to provide an overview of the rationale and techniques of Social Recovery Therapy and relevant research and evaluation methods. Overviews of relevant research, rationale, formulation and specific techniques will be provided in lecture format interspersed with group discussion, role play and video.

This course will be in three sessions: 
Friday, March 21 from 12:00pm - 4:00pm EST
Friday, March 28 from 12:00pm - 4:00pm EST
Friday, April 4 from 12:00pm - 4:00pm EST

CE Board Approvals: American Psychological Association (APA) and New York Education Department Boards for Social Work, Licensed Mental Health Counselors, Psychologists, and Marriage and Family Therapists. Course must be attended live for CE credits.
