Coworker, employee, patient; working with millennials
A high sense of self-entitlement,” “delusional expectations,” “don’t seem to have the same work ethic,” “so needy,” “easily distracted,” “they want to choose what they do, not what I need them to do” These are some of comments some come across in their interactions with business owners, who face the challenges of leading, engaging and retaining talent in their business. Are we doing too much for our millennials? Are we just adding fuel to the fire, enabling them? Let them find out for themselves, it’s a cruel, cruel world. Did we create them and now it’s our responsibility to take care of them? What do you think? Self study opportunity.

Suicide Prevention
One of JCAHOs 2019 standards is suicide prevention. Finding the proper treatment is crucial to curtailing suicidal ideation and reducing suicide attempts. It is noted "A growing body of evidence suggests that suicide prevention is enhanced when specific treatments for underlying conditions are combined with strategies that directly address suicide risk.” Using art therapy as a complementary treatment, those at-risk for suicide can merge artistic approaches with other strategies to help reduce suicidal thoughts and decrease risk of self-harm. This course will focus on the QPR: Question. Persuade. Refer method.
Art Therapy and Adult Coloring Books
Are adult coloring books art therapy? Some say yes some say no, but there is no doubt they can have therapeutic benefits. Using adult coloring books can reduce anxiety, create focus, calm the mind and occupy the hands. This simple act of coloring can take ones’ attention away from oneself and onto the present-moment activity. This course will provide information on how to incorporate adult coloring books and art therapy. Self Study opportunity. Please email me directly for the information regarding this course.
