Dateline: Tromsø, Norway
Place: Rica Ishavshotel
For the last two days, I’ve had the privilege of working with 125+ clinicians (psychotherapists, psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, and addiction treatment professionals) in far northern Norway. The focus of the two-day training was on "What Works" in treatment, in particular examining what constitutes "evidence-based practice" and how to seek and utilize feedback from consumers on an ongoing basis. The crowd was enthusiastic, the food fantastic, and the location, well, simply inspiring. Tomorrow, I’ll be working with a smaller group of practitioners, doing an advanced training. More to come.
