About the Program:
The ‘Good Lives Model’ (GLM) has produced very promising results on its effectiveness in criminal and forensic populations. This is mainly due to the nature of this model being more in the realm of positive psychology and helping clients focus on the ‘positive’ side of life. However, there is not much research on the application or effectiveness of this model on other non-forensic populations as it may not be generally practiced. In addition, Socratic Questioning is considered to be a vital component in CBT based therapies when they are grounded in solution focused questions, questions focused on positive self-satisfaction, and therapeutic change. This presentation and discussion will be guided towards the basics of applying the ‘Good Lives Model’ in combination with Socratic Questioning to many different populations and then using that information for treatment targets.

This program qualifies for 1.0 continuing education credits. Attendees must attend entire session to gain credit.
The speaker has no conflicts of interest to report.
