AI in Therapy: Ethical Decision Making in Practice is a 3-hour interactive and experiential CPD workshop designed for therapists, trainees and supervisors who are curious about the growing presence of AI in practice and want space to think more deeply about its ethical and relational implications.

This CPD training for PCE-CFD practitioners will provide an opportunity for participants to focus on the nature and quality of their professional self-care.

This workshop will explore how mental health issues may present during assessments. It will introduce the structure and approach to formal clinical diagnosis using DSM-5 and ICD-10, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of these diagnostic systems.

In the workshop we will focus on how to bring our client’s awareness to these internal conflicts. We will learn how to help them differentiate the different aspects of self. How to facilitate them in giving voice to these conflicted parts.

Much has been written about in terms of how relevant the PCE-CfD approach is when working with trauma, due in particular to how the model is client led and a very 'gentle' way of working, with client autonomy being a central tenet. We will be looking at the key principles and practice of working in this way with clients presenting with trauma within the Talking Therapies services.
