Psychopharmacology: Diagnosis and Assessment [Clinical Applications Workshop] (CEU not included)

Here at Special Learning, we are putting together a workshop for parents and clinicians wanting to learn about diagnosis and assessment.

In the 50-minute (Clinical Applications Workshop), we discussed how to apply tools in everyday practice. In our Clinical Applications Workshop, you will learn data collection procedures and programs/lesson plans that can enhance the effectiveness of skill-building, medication management, and collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.

Data Collection Procedures: Several data collection procedures will be discussed to support the efficacy of medication, collaboration with medical consultants and parents, and ongoing evaluation and adjustment.

You will learn the following:
• Data collection procedures that can be implemented prior to starting a medication program;
• Ongoing data collection procedures to analyze the effectiveness of medication;
• Strategies to share data with other members of the treatment team to ensure alignment between stakeholders to maximize outcomes.

Programs and Lesson Plans: Additionally, several programs or lesson plans will be discussed that target skill building in social communication and social-emotional regulation. Core deficit areas exhibited by individuals with Autism include delays in social motivation, emotion regulation, and social communication and interaction skills. In this workshop, you will learn practical strategies that can help build your social communication and social-emotional regulation library.

Presenters: Deborah P. Coehlo, Ph.D., C-PNP, PMHS, CFLE, and Manya Ralkowski, EdS, BCBA, LBA, IBA
