Break Free: Reclaiming the Human, the Healer, and the Unapologetic You - 1.5 CE hours

Monday July 13, 2026 12:50pm - 2:10pm CDT

302 A

Objectives:

Describe the impact of fragmented professional roles (e.g., therapist, entrepreneur, supervisor) on clinical presence and identity development.
Identify strategies for integrating personal and professional identity to promote authenticity and reduce anxiety and burnout in clinical practice.
Demonstrate at least one embodiment or expressive technique (e.g., movement, voice, or ritual) that supports emotional regulation and self-connection for therapists.
Evaluate limiting beliefs or internalized messages from clinical training that contribute to imposter syndrome & discuss approaches to redefining identity in the therapy room.

Statement of need:
This training is for: Therapists, counselors, educators, and mental health leaders seeking to strengthen their own identity while modeling authenticity and resilience for the children, adolescents, and families they serve.

Abstract:
Mental health professionals often carry fragmented roles: therapist, entrepreneur, supervisor, parent, partner; that can fracture clinical presence and erode identity. This workshop invites participants to “break free” from those constraints and reclaim an integrated, authentic professional self. Drawing from Jeanette Lira’s upcoming international training in Portugal, the session combines narrative, embodiment, and identity-focused practices to help clinicians reconnect with the human and healer within.

Through interactive exercises, expressive techniques, and guided reflection, attendees will examine the internalized beliefs and training messages that feed imposter syndrome, and learn how to transform them into sources of strength. Participants will leave with practical strategies to integrate personal and professional identity, regulate emotions through embodiment, and model unapologetic authenticity in the therapy room; creating deeper, more effective connections with children, adolescents, and families.

Ethics: Conserving Energy Bars, Using Ethical Decision Making in Clinical Care - 2 CE hours

Monday July 13, 2026 2:40pm - 4:30pm CDT

302 A

CBMT Approved

Objectives:

Attendees will learn criteria for determining level of care
Attendees will learn tools for how to refer out and when
Attendees will learn skills to use to talk to clients about care transitions

Abstract:
Many practitioners are not aware of the levels of care that are available to their clients. This prevents clients from getting the care they need, thus burning up their "therapeutic energy" on the wrong level of care. This leads to less than positive outcomes. This presentation will equip therapists with the tools they need to ensure clients make best of their resources to get the care they need.
