Unburying the Truth About Hoarding
(Digging Deeper)
with Terina Bainter
Back a Second Time by VERY Popular Demand!!
This seminar will be an even more in-depth examination of hoarding disorder than Terina's April 2018 presentation.
Terina will start with a brief review of what hoarding is, expanding into what characteristics are seen, how they show up in the client, and what telling signs you, as a professional, should be looking for, some of which you may be seeing already in your own clients.
You will:
-
Gain a clearer understanding of when it is hoarding and when it may be some other co-occurring condition, to prepare yourself as the professional.
-
Learn how to approach the client, with some useful phrases to employ. See how your initial contact with the client will set the tone for the rest of the relationship.
-
Get tools to evaluate where and how to start in the home: determining the level of coordinated care (if any is needed); learn when a Safety Day team approach is needed and where to start with that next step.
