Since the first “Evolution” conference in 1985, thousands of research studies and how-to books on psychotherapy have been published. Workshops, training programs, and certifications abound. At the same time, the overall effectiveness of psychotherapy has not improved a single percentage point. Meanwhile, practitioners face the most challenging economic practice climate in the field’s history. Incomes are down and fewer people are seeking psychotherapy as a remedy to their problems.

Pulitzer prize winning author Thomas Friedman recently observed, “The era of average is over. In the 21st century, everyone is going to have to find something extra to stand out in their field.” What can mental health and substance abuse professionals do to enhance their performance? Available evidence makes clear that attending a typical continuing education workshop, specializing in the treatment of a particular problem, or learning a new treatment model does little to improve effectiveness. Over the last decade, Scott D. Miller, Ph.D., together with colleagues at the International Center for Clinical Excellence, have been tracking the outcomes of thousands of clinicians around the world. Along the way, they have identified specific practices that separate highly effective from average clinicians.

Thanks to a number of recent studies, there is now solid empirical evidence for what distinguishes highly effective therapists.In this workshop, participants will learn in detail the qualities and practices that separate the great from the good. Participants also will find out about a system of feedback procedures that can be used to develop a profile of their most and least effective moments in therapy – what works and what doesn’t. Not only will attendees get a far more exact idea of their clinical strengths and weaknesses, and how to use the findings in which to improve their own practice, but they also will come away with concrete tools that will immediately boost clinical abilities and effectiveness.
