Experiences can lead us to positive and negative perceptions of who we are in relationship to ourselves and others. My goal in therapy is to assist others in gaining a deeper understanding of themselves. \nMy training is based on Adlerian psychotherapy and incorporates many different styles and from other disciplines. I believe that knowledge comes from many areas in our life and seek to utilize knowledge from music\, history\, philosophy\, and art. Healing is an individualized process. I believe that every person has the knowledge and ability for self-healing\, and sometimes we need another person to help as a guide or to provoke new ideas. I respect and encourage the autonomy of every individual that I work with\, and honor the stories shared with me. \nRelationships between others and to ourselves is a collection of stories and memories. Learning to heal begins with being able to connect to certain stories and memories in a new way. Psychedelic assisted psychotherapy offers ways to understand in a profound way so that we can gain greater agency within our lives. Through my training and experience my hope is to bring new and innovative therapies to those struggling with the complexities of life. \nI have worked with many populations of individuals and have focused on Serious and Persistent Mental Health\, LGBTQ issues\, suicidality\, Borderline Personality Disorder\, and individuals with significant trauma histories. \n  \nKyle Keller: Kyle Keller \nMSW\, LICSW \nTherapist\, Co-Founder \nKyle Keller is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW)\, and Certified Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapist by the California Institute of Integrative Therapies (CIIS). He has received his (Parts A-B) certificate for MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy through the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS). \nKyle has 16 years of experience\, in the field of mental health\, working across a wide variety of settings including crisis clinics\, homeless shelters\, treatment facilities and within jails and prison. He draws inspiration from various psychological and philosophical orientations\, scientific models\, and art forms. He first came across psychedelic research from the 1950s and 1960s while studying transpersonal psychology in his undergraduate psychology program and has since been curious about their implications across multiple domains of knowledge\, including psychology\, philosophy\, history and sociology. Of particular interest\, is the longstanding relationship that human beings have had with psychedelic substances\, and how these may play a role in the shaping of both culture and belief system across cultures and millennia. \nKyle is also a musician\, and aims to deepen his understanding of how music\, art and design can be leveraged to optimize “set and setting” and contribute to the curation of healing experiences. He strives to incorporate creativity and collaboration into every interaction. \nKyle currently practices as a Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapist and plans to help facilitate MDMA and psilocybin therapy as these become available for clinic use. \nKyle has experience working with PTSD\, depression\, anxiety\, LGBTQ mental health and specializes in working with OCD (including religiosity\, and “pure O”). He also enjoys working with spiritual development and existential crises and promoting mental health access to emergency responders. He is trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)\, trauma-informed care\, psychodynamic\, transpersonal\, Jungian\, integrative\, interpersonal\, behavioral\, humanistic\, and existential modalities.

SUMMARY:Vicarious Trauma: "It Didn't Happen To Me"
DESCRIPTION:A: What is vicarious trauma? \nB: How do we treat it? \nC: How do we face it? \nVicarious trauma is an occupational challenge for people working and volunteering in the fields of victim services\, therapy\, law enforcement\, emergency medical services\, fire services\, and other allied professions\, due to their continuous exposure to victims of trauma and violence. \nThis work-related trauma exposure can occur from such experiences as listening to individual clients recount their victimization; looking at videos of exploited children; reviewing case files; hearing about or responding to the aftermath of violence and other traumatic events day after day. \n2CE’s\, \n  \n\n\n\n\nThis workshop will give a better understanding of concept\, treatment techniques\, and coping with vicarious trauma oneself. Families come to us with a history of traumatic events within family\, individually and collectively\, as well as trauma across generations. So much exposure to client’s pain impacts the practitioner\, but need not derail effectiveness. \n\n\n\n\nLeland Bissinger is an Adler Graduate School Alumnus who has many years of experience working with systems that struggle with conflict: parental\, parent-child\, divorce\, incarceration\, parent-child separation\, alcohol and drug issues with mental health disorders. His education is in spiritual counseling and psychotherapy. He is licensed by the Board of Marriage and Family Therapy. He has worked in Level 1 Trauma hospitals. Currently he is lead Mental Health Professional (MHP) at Oakridge Residential MICD program for men. There he leads groups\, individual sessions\, and family sessions.

SUMMARY:Adlerian Case Consultation-From the Ground Up
DESCRIPTION:The holistic nature of Adlerian theory is clinically useful\, but it can also create challenges in learning how to conceptualize cases and treatment plan from an Adlerian perspective. In this seminar we will explore the core tenets of Adlerian theory\, and build upon this knowledge to distinguish between theoretical concepts\, treatment planning and intervention selection. This seminar is all about the application of theory\, and how Adlerian therapy actually works in the real world. \n\n\n\n\nParticipants will be able to identify and understand the tenets of Adlerian theory. We will then discuss how to conceptualize cases from an Adlerian perspective and how that conceptualization then leads to treatment planning and intervention selection. \nThis presentation will take place on an online format. Presenter will use auditory explanations enhanced by visual slides. \n2CE’s MFT Pending \n\n\n\n\nDr. Sarah Hudson is a graduate of Adler University in Chicago.

She is hoping to expand on her practice in 2023 to include other clinicians\, coaches and healers that want to encourage growth\, healing\, and well-being of women. DeShelle is a firm believer in these skillsets being pertinent to the success of all women. \nDeShelle is finding joy in all aspects of her Counseling and Coaching career but what she finds the most joy in is spending time with the men in her life… Her family!!!

SUMMARY:Encouragement\, Hope & Resilience in the Midst of a Climate Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Research is growing on the effects of climate change and natural disasters on human well-being. A 2020 report by the American Psychological Association (APA) states that “Concern about climate change may be having an impact on mental health\, with more than two-thirds of adults (68%) saying that they have at least a little “eco-anxiety\,” defined as any anxiety or worry about climate change and its effects. These effects may be disproportionately impacting the country’s youngest adults; nearly half of those age 18-34 (47%) say the stress they feel about climate change affects their daily lives.” \nAs a result\, it is important for counselors to understand concepts like eco-anxiety and eco-grief and how these might show up for individuals and families. In this workshop\, we will discuss how people are affected by ecological changes such as climate change\, natural disasters\, and species loss. We will discuss the variety of emotional responses associated with grief\, loss\, anxiety\, and even trauma as a result of these climate realities. In addition\, we will discuss normalizing the wide range of emotional responses that occur in response to this topic and encourage actions that can be taken to move these emotions into useful behaviors for well-being of people and the planet. \nIn this session\, we will cover often-used terms and learn about a few informal assessment tools. The objectives of the course are to: \n• Define terms like eco-anxiety\, eco-grief\, climate crisis\, resilience\, hope\, and encouragement. \n• Examine common emotional reactions associated with climate issues. \n• Provide information from research and implications for counseling. \n• Encourage participants to explore activism while caring for themselves. \n2-hour workshop with one 15-minute break \n2 CE’s MFT pending \n\n\n\n\nRecent research suggests growing levels of concern for climate change with young people proportionately affected. This course provides introductory information around eco-anxiety and eco-grief\, assessments\, research\, and actions that counselors\, individuals and families can take to build a more thriving relationship with nature\, thereby healing themselves and planet. \nIn a study of Minnesota Mental Health Professionals (including LICSW\, LSW\, LMFT\, LPCC and others)\, these professionals agreed that climate change is a critical problem impacting mental health (81.6%)\, with many (61.0%) already observing these impacts. More than half (51.8%) report that clients would consider discussing climate change as part of their treatment. Yet fewer (32.9%) feel well-prepared to have this discussion.1 This is a place to have such a discussion. \n  \n\n\n\n\nParticipants will be exposed to and discuss terms and research related to the relationship between climate change and mental health. They will better understand the many terms associated with climate emotions and responses. They will learn tools for resilience for themselves and their clients as we all navigate future climate issues. \n\n\n\n\nBre Hiivala Cahoy\, EdD is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and full-time faculty member in the Counseling Program at Adler Graduate School. She has experience in career development\, employee assistance programs\, and has served as an advocate at a campus Women’s Center.
