Complex Cases

Complex Case Discussions: a challenging interweave

Complex Case Discussions: for providers of complex assessments.

Following feedback from attendees at some of Diane Clare's previous trainings, this webinar opens a space to discuss the interweave of complex presentations in your clinical practice.

Driven by a strong interest by clinicians to have a deeper look at complex case formulation whether it is for ACC reports or in general clinical work, this webinar will be shaped by you and address the questions that arise when working with this client group.

To help us shape this workshop to meet your needs, we invite you to email Diane Clare the following information based on Diane's case formulation model using CASE© Themes.

Diane will then send you the registration link (price & information below).

Workshop Date: Online via ZOOM - Friday, 18 July 2025
Workshops run 9am-3pm.

*NOTE: See below for important deadlines.

CASES:

C - Context: Where you work and and in what capacity.

A - About the client:  Age, gender identify, ethnicity.

S - Safety issues:  What they are and how you managed them.

E - Evaluation:  What has worked and what else might be needed? What are your wonderings?

Themes emerging: What themes have you noticed eg: Attachment influences on PTSD recovery; overlap of ADHD/PTSD; co-morbidities within a trauma presentation; other?

Please use this model and send anonymous key points (not a detailed record) as this can then be included in the planning and design of the workshop.

Please click here to send this information to Diane or via the button below.

IMPORTANT:  The CASE© Themes must be received by Saturday, 31st May 2025 latest otherwise the questions raised cannot be guaranteed to be covered. Confirmed bookings/registrations need to be completed by Friday, 6 June 2025.

Once received, Diane will then review your CASE Themes and collate them into her planning for the webinar design for 18th July 2025.

Please Note: this workshop may touch on emotional issues such as grief and/or trauma, and some of the material covered in our workshops may be sensitive or triggering to certain participants. We encourage everyone to practice self-care and either reach out to us, or directly discuss any concerns with our presenter.
