Episode Synopsis
Complex cases… The rule? Or the exception? In this episode of Practical for Your Practice, we sit down with Dr. Aaron Brinen, who argues that complexity is often the norm when it comes to client cases. Dr. Brinen shares valuable insights on how to effectively serve clients with complex issues, emphasizing the importance of a thorough case formulation. We dive deep into how this process can lead to more effective strategies for change. Tune in to learn why taking the time to understand a client’s “perpetual motion machine” can enhance your evidence-based practice and lead to better outcomes.Aaron P. Brinen, PsyD, is a primary developer of recovery-oriented cognitive therapy (CT-R) along with Aaron T. Beck, MD. Under the guidance of Dr. Beck, Dr. Brinen has worked to formalize and standardize the CT-R protocol for individual and group therapy settings, as well as for use in team-based psychiatric care and during inpatient treatment. He is a co-author of the manual of CT-R for serious mental health conditions, and has been active in the training of community therapists from around the world.Resources mentioned in this episode: Living Well with Psychosis Practical Strategies for Improving Your Daily Life (PROMO CODE: AU2E)Dr. Brinen’s presentation in CDP’s 2024 EBP Conference: Strategy for Change: Using Conceptualization to Drive Evidence Based Treatment Choices in Complex Cases Practical for Your Practice voice mail: speakpipe.com/cdpp4pPractical for Your Practice email: [email protected] Calls-to-action: Watch Strategy for Change: Using Conceptualization to Drive Evidence Based Treatment Choices in Complex CasesGet a dry erase board or have plenty of paper on hand for case formulationSubscribe to the Practical for Your Practice PodcastSubscribe to The Center for Deployment Psychology Monthly Email at https://deploymentpsych.org/CDP-MED-Opt-In
