We know so many mental health treatments are developed on a very similar type of family: White, middle class, with access to many resources. So it makes sense that when these treatments are delivered to a more diverse audience, they might need some *tweaking* in order for families to resonate with treatment and get better. That *tweaking* (and sometimes overhauling!) is what my research is all about. My research answers the question of "how do we make evidence-based mental health treatments better for families of color, especially Black families?" I had SO MUCH FUN talking about this with That Implementation Science Podcast! Check out the podcast episode out now for more on my research and hear what it means to be an implementation scientist from some awesome folks in the field Noah Triplett Margaret Crane, PhD @michael pullman! 👇🏽 https://lnkd.in/g9qDX67B #ImpSci #Psychology #MentalHealth #Research

The effects of childhood trauma may be affecting your workplace without your even knowing it. As leaders, we must create psychologically safe environments to support the healing and overall growth of those with chlidhood trauma. Here is what we can do to help foster employee growth from trauma: 👐Offer accessible mental health resources and support programs. 🛠️Promote open dialogues about the impacts of trauma and ways to build resilience. ♾️Create a company culture that prioritizes employee well-being and psychological safety. 🗣️Collaborate with mental health professionals to develop tailored strategies and training. By taking these steps, we can help employees turn childhood adversity into catalysts for positive change. This supports healthier workplace cultures of support and resilience. Let's work together to create workplaces where all employees can thrive. #TraumaAwareness #WorkplaceWellbeing #EmployeeResilience #PsychologicalSafety #MentalHealthAtWork

Next week the Amplio Community of Practice will continue discussing common challenges and myths. Last week, we had a good conversation about complexity, Cynefin, and Amplio’s approach to working in complex environments. We needed more time so this next session will continue the conversation. Let me provide a disclaimer – I am not an expert on Cynefin. However, I do believe the general approach of saying we’re in one type of domain or another domain is not effective. A more actionable way to look at it is to think of systems as a collection of relationships between the components of the system. We can characterize these relationships as simple (clear cause and effect relationship), complicated (several causes and effects working together), and  complex (we can’t understand the relationships at the moment). All of these relationships can also have non-linearity—that is, a small event can create a big result. This happens in different ways. A single event can create a big problem (eg, the camel that broke the camel’s back). A combination of simple events can create a big problem (eg, raindrops causing a flood). Or a cascading sequence of little events can create a big problem (eg, an avalanche). We can state that a complex system is one where complexity plays a significant role in how it behaves – making it unpredictable. One can think of complex systems as being: 1) something that impacts us but over which we have no control (e.g., the weather) 2) Societal behavior which we are embedded in but over which control is impossible. 3) Complex systems such as nuclear reactors where we don’t have full visibility due to complexity and often can’t change the devices as we need to in real time 4) Knowledge work where we have great control. Since knowledge work is complex, we must recognize that we can’t fully predict what’s going to happen – or even if what we’re trying to do is the right thing. We have some capability, but not 100%. An easy way to make this point is to use the concept of VUCA – Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity. Talking about this is straightforward and people can readily relate to these terms. This is why feedback is so critical. Although one may not be able to plot a course that’s always on track, by attending to where you want to go and where you are actually headed, you will be pretty efficient. We should recognize the problem we have is not complexity but non-linear events. Complexity causes lack of visibility when these events start occurring. But if we get quick feedback we can avoid them. When we think we’re in a complex environment where we can’t see what’s going on we disempower ourselves. But when we recognize we can see many relationships and that feedback will provide us the visibility on what is needed to course-correct, we can stay true on course. The bottom line is we must recognize that we’re in a complex system. But we don’t have to label everything in the system as complex. #cynefin #amplio

AI is transforming psychological assessment, and we have a rare opportunity to shape its impact on our profession. Honored to share with California Psychological Association & colleagues how we can embrace this change while maintaining the highest clinical standards. Key insight that resonated across the room: "These concerns show good clinical judgment. They're not barriers - they're guardrails for responsible implementation." What we covered: - The 4 A's Framework: Automate, Accelerate, Augment, Generate - a roadmap for ethical AI adoption in clinical practice - Implementation Timeline: How to move from basic automation to enhanced clinical insights without compromising care - The Reality Check: It's not about AI replacing clinicians - it's about removing what keeps us from being our best clinical selves Every minute saved on documentation is a minute gained for patient care. We're not becoming lazy clinicians - we're becoming more present ones. Download the full presentation, implementation toolkit, and resource guide: https://lnkd.in/gNyhuRPb Let's shape this future together. 🎯 H/T: Joshua Spencer PsychAssist.AI Daniel Inouye Dr. Erika Torres Sam Bowne Heidi Health Dr. Thomas Kelly Melanie Chinchilla Akiko Kaji, PhD Joshua Heitzmann, Ph.D. #AssessmentPsychology #ClinicalInnovation #PsychologyAI #MentalHealthMatters #Psychology #PersonalityAssessment  #EthicalPsychology

I'm so glad to see McLean & Company working to help organizations be more trauma-informed. Its new report notes that, “regardless of industry, failing to be trauma-informed can have negative impacts on organizational outcomes, including decreased productivity and increased absenteeism and turnover” and that "becoming trauma-informed is a key part of being a safe workplace.”   I also appreciated the admonition that being trauma-informed never means requiring people to share their trauma with you; rather, it's about ensuring that individuals know that if they choose to open up, they will be met with empathy and a lack of blame, and that the "organization will respond by asking them what they need and facilitating access to the support.” See more on the link below!

Narrative Organizers are a type of Advanced Organizer that introduces new content through storytelling or scenario-based contexts. These organizers use relatable narratives to connect new information with learners' prior knowledge, providing a real-world framework that makes abstract concepts more tangible and memorable. Narrative organizers can make learning more engaging, memorable, and practical by illustrating how new information is applied in realistic or relatable contexts. Narrative Organizers also can be very effective within communications and presentations. Here are 10 types of narrative organizers along with descriptions, examples and benefits. Where could you use a narrative organizer? #InstructionalDesign #training #cognitiveload #neuroscience #instructionaldesign #instructionaldesigners #elearning #elearningdesign #talentdevelopment #education #learning

One of the aspects of trauma-informed inclusive leadership that I find the most helpful is the practice of centering. We focus inward so that we can witness emotion and recognize it as something we don’t have to participate in. It’s also a step in offering ourselves and others compassion as they work through feelings of hurt and exclusion. This quote sums up why that’s so valuable. Educators, researchers, intellectuals, and culture leaders have power when the focus is not on proving racism wrong, but rather moving solidly from the deep knowing that it was always a lie. #inclusiveleadership #antiracism

https://lnkd.in/eFXMWEqv Insider's takeaway DID is a complex and widely misunderstood condition that most often stems from traumatic experiences in childhood. While it does involve shifting between multiple identities, other symptoms can include lapses in memory, depression, and feeling detached from yourself or the world around you. Even though no specific cure for DID exists, Botwin emphasizes you do have options for managing and easing your symptoms. A variety of treatments like therapy, hypnosis, and medication can all make a difference. "Many of my clients who have DID are also professionals, parents, and partners. People with DID can go on to live happy and fulfilling lives," Botwin says. #understand #educate #myths #dissociation #treatment #therapy #hope #heal #cope #live #love

Paul Krauss MA LPC speaks with John Bateson about his new book: Suicide: Understanding and Ending a National Tragedy which provides essential information about the current landscape surrounding suicide - debunking common myths, sharing demographic data, and identifying risk factors and warning signs. More than 49,000 people in the United States died by suicide in 2022 — that's one death every 11 minutes, and more than any other year dating to back at least 1941, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. John Bateson has pragmatic suggestions for multiple segments of society regarding how we as a society can reduce the number of suicides in the United States. John Bateson was executive director of a nationally certified crisis intervention and suicide prevention center for 16 years. He also was executive director of three university counseling centers and deputy director of a multicounty social service agency. He served on the steering committee of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (now the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline) and was appointed to a blue-ribbon committee that created the "California Strategic Plan on Suicide Prevention." He is the author of The Education of a Coroner, The Last and Greatest Battle, The Final Leap, and Building Hope.
