WELCOME TO COMPASS POINT
We would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to Compass Point Counseling Services. This practice was established to provide the highest quality of counseling and client care within our community, and to do so in a positive environment where input and teamwork are encouraged. We strive to provide quality mental health services with skill, dedication and compassion, while adhering to the highest ethical standards.
​
We are first and foremost hired by our clients, to use our expertise on their behalf. Since each of our clients is unique, we do not take a cookie-cutter approach to counseling. Our clinicians will propose a care plan after an appropriate assessment. This care plan will be based on the client’s reasons for seeking help while incorporating their personal goals and strengths.

DBT IV Programmatic Logistics and Supervisory Techniques

10.18.2018

In this training, you can learn to create and run a successful DBT® team.  Having a team is an essential component of DBT® practice and is necessary for an adherent program. Also learn and discuss common programmatic concerns and how-to problem solve them.  Attendees will be able to present team dilemmas and learn strategies for finding a dialectical synthesis.

DBT V (half day) Suicide Risk Assessment

10.19.2018


There is a high probability that any clinician will encounter a self-harming or suicidal client over their professional career; the likelihood of a DBT® therapist treating a high acuity client is dramatically higher than their peers. It is crucial that DBT® therapists have an understanding of suicidal risk factors as well as a plan for assessing and treating.

DBT VI (half day) Mindfulness

10.19.2018


The purpose of this training is to help clinicians understand the relevance of mindfulness as both a tool for their clients as well as a tool for themselves. Mindfulness is a centuries old, holistic treatment option that yields consistently research-validate benefits for all mental health complaints. This training will help attendees learn methods to teach mindfulness as well as learn to employ it as a strategy for their own stressors. We will also look at mindfulness as it can be used with children and adolescents!

Building Blocks: Practical Strategies for Therapy With Clients Experiencing Depression, Stress, and Anxiety     

11.09.2018

This training is developed to help participants think analytically about what they do to help their clients -why they do it, and how to do it more effectively.  It will explore the primary building block of the therapeutic alliance: empathy and delve into the theoretic origins and research which clarified its importance.  Clients are invited to wear comfortable clothing, as we will practice some calming postures and breathing techniques, seeking ways to care for ourselves and avoid vicarious trauma.  We will explore and expand on tested strategies for treating our clients who struggle with depression, stress, and anxiety in its many forms. Attendees will be encouraged to present case examples of clients who have been especially challenging to connect with and treat.  The goal is for the group to create a safe, mutually-supportive sharing atmosphere which will allow for a stimulating exchange of ideas.
