Clinicians in Wraparound

This training will utilize a collaborative style learning opportunity to discuss and strategize the barriers and concerns of clinicians/therapists working on Wraparound teams, CFTs and/or other areas within the teaming process. Current policies, procedures and strategies are provided to increase confidence in the ability to collaborate without breaking confidentiality. The group will review how clinicians can collaborate with and utilize the specific members of the Wraparound team to expand the therapeutic reach outside of the individual session. We will also discuss therapeutic modalities optimal for the Wraparound process, case conceptualization and treatment planning as a team, while making recommendations for higher levels of care and aftercare.
