SUMMARY:Grief During The Holidays
DESCRIPTION:The end of the year\, with all of its holiday celebrations in many segments of the population\, typically brings out significant feelings of loss and loneliness due to grief. 2020 and 2021 have been especially poignant given the separation that has been necessary both while supporting dying loved ones\, and while trying to maintain meaningful family traditions of holiday celebration. This workshop will look at the implications of prolonged grief (formerly known as complicated grief)\, and the effects it is having on individuals’ in their personal lives and work lives. We will also discuss ways of working with clients to cope with the sadness and stress this season may produce for them. \n\n\nParticipants will gain an appreciation of the phenomenon of prolonged grief and how it can manifest during the holidays\, even years after a loved one’s death. Participants will also be given tools for working through the grief process during the holidays. \n\n\nChris is a 1998 graduate of Alfred Adler Graduate School\, and a Licensed Professional Counselor. Since her initial internship in hospice support\, she has been amazed by how much of life’s problems are tied to a person’s sense of loss – real\, imagined\, or anticipated. Gaining the tools to work through the grief people experience\, has been a large part of her various practices over the last 20 years

SUMMARY:Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS): Implications for Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) occurs in babies that experience prenatal exposure to opioids. These substances could be prescription (e.g.\, methadone and oxycodone) or illegal (e.g.\, heroin) in nature. When the baby no longer receives the drug after birth\, withdrawal symptoms such as vomiting\, seizures\, sensory sensitivity\, and loss of weight become apparent. This syndrome can have both short- and long-term developmental consequences. Concerns of NAS have increased with the opioid addiction crisis in the United States. In fact\, research suggests somewhere between 25% and 30% of American pregnant women are prescribed opioids like OxyContin\, Percocet\, and Vicodin. This does not even account for instances where illegal drugs are consumed by pregnant women. Fueled by the consumption of these drugs\, NAS has become one of the largest public health problems in the United States. For example\, cases of NAS skyrocketed by approximately 400% from 2000 to 2012 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). This leaves 3.9 out of every 1000 delivery admissions in the United States with NAS. Designed for professionals working within mental health and substance use treatment settings\, this training will increase awareness of NAS and prepare attendees to address this public health crisis in the field. Specifically\, the training will define NAS\, explore the developmental and behavioral health consequences of NAS\, discuss screening options\, and identify evidence-based treatments and interventions for the baby and mother. Other relevant topics of interest covered in relation to NAS include the role and impact of prenatal alcohol and tobacco exposure and other prenatal and postnatal threats. Implications for child welfare workers and marriage and family therapists will also be discussed. All aforementioned discussions are grounded in empirical research findings. \nTraining Objectives: \n1. Define Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) and related terms \n2. Develop a working knowledge of the developmental and behavioral health consequences of NAS across the lifespan \n3. Discuss screening options to improve the identification and diagnosis of NAS \n4. Learn about treatment and intervention options for NAS \n5. Explore possible protective factors and prevention strategies \n6. Learn about the role and impact of other prenatal traumas (e.g.\, prenatal alcohol and tobacco exposure) \n7. Acquire a basic understanding of the existing empirical research on NAS \n  \nJerrod Brown\, Ph.D.\, is an Assistant Professor\, Program Director\, and lead developer for the Master of Arts degree in Human Services with an emphasis in Forensic Behavioral Health for Concordia University\, St. Paul\, Minnesota.
