DSM-5-TR: Things Every Clinician Should Know
Strengthen your diagnostic confidence. Elevate your clinical practice.
This immersive, four‑day DSM‑5‑TR training offers clinicians a rare opportunity to earn all required continuing education hours in Diagnosis, Ethics, Supervision, Telehealth, and Multiculturalism in a single, comprehensive program.
Designed for counselors who want to deepen their mastery of the DSM‑5‑TR, this training blends evidence‑based instruction with experiential learning. Participants engage in small‑group diagnostic labs, large‑group discussions, telehealth simulations, and multicultural case analysis to build advanced, real‑world diagnostic competence.
We cover the full spectrum of DSM‑5‑TR essentials—from differential diagnosis and ethical documentation to supervision of diagnostic skills and culturally responsive assessment. Whether you’re seeking to refine your clinical judgment, strengthen your diagnostic accuracy, or meet your CE requirements efficiently, this training provides the tools to make your assessments clearer, your formulations stronger, and your practice more ethically grounded.
Don’t miss this opportunity to sharpen your skills, connect with fellow professionals, and complete all mandatory CE hours in one high‑impact training experience.
This conference is endorsed by the International Association of Psychology and Counseling.
