Our San Luis Obispo unit fall schedule begins on Thursday, September 25th. Attorney Dan W. Scott will present a 2 CEU program on “Cooperative Divorce, Mediation, and Other Alternatives to Litigation.” This presentation is intended to help therapeutic practitioners help their clients reach more satisfying outcomes with respect to issues arising from marital separation and divorce. Divorcing couples can avoid financially ruinous and excruciatingly painful legal strife by exploring the various alternatives to contested divorce litigation. These include family court services, private judging, collaborative lawyering, divorce mediation and pro per options.
The SLO unit will meet from 5:30pm to 8:00pm and begin with social networking, refreshments, and a brief business meeting. The CEU program begins at 6:00pm. Please contact Ly-Lan Lofgren at lylanmvolfgren@gmail.com for the address and directions.
On Thursday, October 23rd, Henry Ahlstrom, PhD, will give a 1.5 CEU presentation on “Mindfulness or Focusing Oriented Psychotherapy.” Dr. Ahlstrom is a psychologist at DSH-A [Atascadero State Hospital] who worked with both staff and patients regarding this therapeutic intervention for a number of years. The SLO unit will meet at Atascadero State Hospital, Atascadero from 5:30pm to 7:30pm.
On Thursday, December 4th, we will hold our annual SLO unit holiday celebration. Each year the unit highlights a volunteer-based, local community group which provides unique services to our clients and their families. CASA [court appointed special advocates] is the program being honored this year and Pete Skarda, advocate supervisor, will share his experiences in the program. The festivities begin at 5:30pm and end at 7:00pm; dinner and drinks will be provided. Please contact Ly-Lan Lofgren at lylanmvolfgren@gmail.com for the address and directions.
