SUMMARY:Extreme Beliefs or Delusions: Understanding the True Believer
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Steven M. Crimando\, MA\, CHPP\, CTM\n\n\n\nIt can be difficult and frustrating to try to reason with people whose beliefs range from extreme to delusional\, or to try to refute their evidence—especially if there are hundreds of thousands\, perhaps millions of others who believe the same conspiracy theories. When so many people support the same views\, is it as simple as considering them paranoid\, extreme\, or delusional? And how would you respond if that same conspiracy theory might incite violence or was viewed by the FBI as a potential domestic terrorism threat? \n\n\n\nPeople become radicalized into extreme beliefs in different ways\, in different roles\, and for different reasons. It may be helpful to distinguish between reasons for joining\, remaining in\, and leaving extremist organizations. Perceived injustice\, a need for identity and need for belonging are common vulnerabilities among potential extremists\, but there are other powerful psychological forces.  \n\n\n\nPresenter Bio:\n\n\n\nSteven M. Crimando\, MA\, CHPP\, CTM\, is a subject matter expert and trainer specialized in human factors/behavioral sciences in homeland and corporate security\, anti-terrorism\, violence prevention and intervention\, emergency and disaster management. \n\n\n\nSteve is a Certified Threat Manager (CTM)\, Board Certified Expert in Traumatic Stress (BCETS) and Certified Homeland Protection Professional (CHPP). He is recognized as an expert in the violence prevention and the behavioral response to CBRN emergencies and mass violence. \n\n\n\nPresentation Overview\n\n\n\n• The mindset of the “true believer”• Three views of radicalization: Social\, Cognitive and Clinical• Differentiating between extreme beliefs and delusional thought• The nexus between mental illness and terrorism• The FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit’s view current extremist threat landscape \n\n\n\nSession\n\n\n\nVenue: This event will be held via ZoomOne session: Sunday\, March 6th\, 9:30am – 11:30am \n\n\n\nFees\n\n\n\nFree for Members$50 for Non-Members (2 CE’s for NYS-licensed social workers.

SUMMARY:Contemplative Psychotherapy
DESCRIPTION:Leslie Reed Shields\, LCSW\nAs clinicians\, in this time of uncertainty\, might we be called to journey a different path in our clinical work? \nContemplative Psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach that has at its core the belief that one’s inner wisdom and natural dignity is sacred and universal. Early developmental experiences\, which affect current feelings\, moods and behaviors\, may mask one’s natural capacity for emotional and spiritual well-being. The cultivation of focused attention\, openness\, compassion and reflection\, along with a deepened\, heightened awareness\, ignites personal growth and leads to stronger\, more sustaining connections with oneself and others. Contemplative psychotherapy’s foundation evolved to include a blending of Buddhist\, Christian and Hebrew traditions with more traditional forms of psychotherapy from a humanistic perspective. \nContemplative Practice is attuned to: \n\nAn open and present stance that is relational in nature and allows for empathic engagement of another’s experience without letting go of your own.\nEngaging the use of silence as reverence. Silence helps draw together the scattered and dissipated energies of a fragmented existence and dissolve distance between others.\nEngaging a psychological and spiritual state where our ego does not run our lives but is measured in response to what our heart and body tells us is true.\nThe creation of spaciousness\, that makes room for one’s wholeness to emerge\, around a full range of emotions. \nAttending to what we experience as reverie and those spaces in the therapeutic experience that are without words and which we call sacred. \nThe opportunity to sit with the fullness of our experience.\n\n\nSessions\nVenue: This event will be held via ZoomTwo sessions: October 11th & 25th\, 2020 \n\nFees\nFree for Members$125 for Non-Members \n\n*Continuing Education credits: The Suffolk Institute for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis SW CPE is recognized by the New York State Education Department’s State Board for Social Work as an approved provider of continuing education for licensed social workers #0133. \n5 CE credit hours are available for this course.
