The target audience for this medical event is psychologists, social workers, counselors, nurses and allied mental health professionals. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 15 hours of credit.

Conference Description:
As professionals, we must manage our own feelings of stress and burnout as we attempt to bring meaning to our lives and the lives of others. In this symposium, Dr. Brooks will describe interventions rooted in a strength-based framework for nurturing a “resilient mindset”, including the attributes of self-dignity, responsibility, compassion, and hope for both patients and professionals.

Symposium participants will learn: techniques for enhancing empathy and our own “stress hardiness”; the components of motivation and a “resilient mindset”; the importance of identifying and reinforcing “islands of competence”; how to change “negative scripts” and “negative mindsets” and how to promote change in oneself and others. Dr. Brooks will elaborate on many strategies with case examples for enhancing hope, motivation, self-discipline, and resilience.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
