SUMMARY:Problem Solving Workshop
DESCRIPTION:May 31\, 2023\n10:00AM-1:15PM\nThe presentation will equip attendees with a simple problem-solving methodology developed by Dr. Barry Smith thirty-five years ago.

Barry Smith\, MD\, PhD \nDr. Smith received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Harvard University\, his PhD in Molecular Biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and his MD from Cornell University Medical College with residency training at New York Hospital\, Massachusetts General Hospital\, and Memorial-Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

This presentation will focus on identifying ways that an understanding of intergenerational trauma can be integrated into a trauma informed approach to care. \nDr. James Rodriguez\, PHD\, LCSW \nDr. James Rodriguez is a Senior Research Scientist and Director of Trauma-Informed Services at the McSilver Institute. He is a New York State-licensed clinical social worker and psychologist with over 25 years of providing mental health services to children\, youth and families. \nOCTOBER\, 27TH\, 2022 \nTIME: 10:00AM-12:00PM \nREGISTER NOW
