Conducting a Complete IPT Case
Course Description
It is easy to lose sight of the big picture when working on specific IPT cases. Using both Deliberate Practice and elements from the Middle Phase of IPT, this course will focus on conceptualization and strategy to build and improve skills to conduct a complete course of IPT.
Live demonstrations of the phases of treatment will be followed by small group practice led by an expert IPT supervisor. Discussions will focus on adaptation of strategy for use with more challenging clients.
All class sessions will be in four hour blocks from 5 PM to 9 PM Central Daylight Time (Chicago). Please be SURE that you have the correct time for your home location when you register.
Schedule

Scott Fairhurst, PhD
Scott Fairhurst, Ph.D., is the Vice President of Training, Outcomes & Evaluation, and Business Analytics at Pacific Clinics, the largest Community Behavioral Health agency in California. His focus is on making it easier for clinicians and clients to see the impact of their work, including which activities are most likely to help and what impacts we are most likely to see. This transparent sharing of the process is what first drew him to IPT; the notion that a case conceptualization includes how the client sees their own goals, needs, network, strengths, and improvements. In his role at Pacific Clinics (Los Angeles), the combination of outcomes monitoring and best practices training allows him to influence the agency’s culture in this same way. Scott earned his doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Houston in 1994.
The IPT Institute is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. The IPT Institute maintains responsibility for this program and its content.
