Demystifying the Assessment Intervention Session (AIS): Basic AIS Skills to Help Build Client Insight
2/24/2023
9:00 AM - 11:00 AM CST

Event Description
This two-hour workshop is designed for clinicians who are looking to improve their understanding and skill set as related to conducting the Assessment Intervention Session (AIS) with adult clients taking part in a TA. After a brief review of the TA model and AIS step, the focus will shift to a discussion of common factors that clinicians new to TA report when considering the AIS, and how to overcome potential implementation barriers. Next, guidance will be provided about building the client case conceptualization from the beginning of the TA, to best identify the target of the AIS.  Some of the most common strategies for using tests to evoke the problem behavior will be explained, along with ideas about how scaffold the client to new learnings and support their emotional response.  Case examples will be included to illustrate the ideas presented. Participants will leave this presentation with identified strategies they can begin using with their current clients.
