Workshops for Clinicians

Supporting Family Caregivers in Therapeutic Practice-
An In-Depth Training for Clinicians

The emotional landscape of caregiving involves layered grief, guilt, identity shifts, chronic stress, changing family dynamics and a unique form of ongoing loss that requires its own therapeutic understanding and calls for a specialized lens.

In this novel upcoming training, caregiver therapists Stephanie Muskat (MSW,RSW) Dr. Barry Jacobs (PsyD), and Andrea Cangiano (LCSW) will guide an in-depth exploration into therapeutic approaches that surround the caregiver experience. Together, we will look closely at how to support the emotional needs of family caregivers, how to navigate the complexities of the caregiving relationship, and how to approach this work in a way that is clinically supportive and transformative for clients.

This training is designed for mental health clinicians who work with or wish to work with family caregivers. If you support caregivers in your practice, this training is for you.
