Audience: Massachusetts clinicians seeking foundational competence working with veterans, active-duty/Guard/Reserve members, and military families.

Participants will learn practical alliance-building strategies, a simplified clinical formulation framework for common military-related symptom patterns, ethical ways to address meaning and identity stressors, and scope-safe approaches for supporting clients who are navigating administrative systems. The course also includes essential safety fundamentals relevant to military populations, including respectful direct-risk inquiry and nonjudgmental lethal means safety conversations.
