Complex and Uncertain Waters: Guiding Families through Separation, Divorce, and Stepfamily Integration

Presented by: Jonah Green, LCSW-C and Lori Rothfeld, Esq.

workshoppicSince its inception in the 1950s, the field of family therapy has developed a number of approaches for generating positive change in families. Whether focusing on differentiating individuals, shoring up family structures, improving family communication, or deepening emotional experiences, family therapists have generated a variety of models meant to apply universally to all families. Over time, however, therapists have found certain kinds of families respond better to more specialized approaches.

Families that are separating, divorcing or forming stepfamilies have particular needs that generally require different treatment methods than those that work for nuclear or first-marriage families. This workshop will introduce therapists to the particular dynamics of these complex family systems, and help them identify specific interventions to help families navigate uncertainty and chart a path towards growth and healing. An attorney will also present the legal mechanisms of separation and divorce as well as strategies for risk management.

The workshop will take place on Friday, March 23, 2018 from 8:30am -12:30pm at the office of Jonah Green and Associates, LLC, 3930 Knowles Avenue, Suite 206, in Kensington, MD. Refreshments and networking will begin at 8:00 AM. Participants who are eligible will receive 4.0 Category One Continuing Education credits through the Maryland Board of Social Work.

Cost of the workshop: $80.00
