Over and above the treatment plan’s role in getting authorizations for services, Person-Centered Care treatment plans become roadmaps, guiding service interventions and serving as useful tools for exploring when and why course corrections may be advised. Join us for a series of 90-minute webinars designed to enhance treatment planning, using those plans as a useful tool to keep work on track in day-to-day meetings and interventions.
Each week we will do a deep-dive into a component of the treatment plan with a special focus on how to engage consumers in the exploration and development of the plan. If you are new to training in PCCP, weeks one through seven build off each other and cover all the core components of a Person-Centered assessment and treatment plan. If you have some experience or training in PCCP, join us for just the topics where you would like a refresher or further study. View details regarding available CEUs.

Select a topic below for a brief description:
This training focuses on using recovery-oriented language to craft actionable long-term treatment goals that connect to the guiding visions to inspired work. This type of language crafts actionable long-term treatment goals. These goals connect to the guiding visions that will set yourself up for success by engaging consumers in plan development, establishing the vision (focusing on what matters to the consumer), and connecting the vision to treatment goals.
Accurate and effective assessments provide the foundation for treatment planning. We will cover skills and strategies for gathering data in intake assessments and ongoing reassessments with a focus on self-reflection, perspectives, and coordinating and collaborating to improve consumer engagement and data accuracy.
In this training, we will be exploring barriers and challenges that have prevented consumers from achieving their goals, focusing on what inspired consumers to start service and their explanation of symptoms, illnesses, and challenges. We will also discuss exploring functional impairments, using data gathered to identify areas of needs.
Working with consumers, teams and natural supporters to make use of the people allows personal attributes and resources in their corners, focusing on strengths in concrete and actionable ways, resolving differences in perception, and putting strengths to work.
Pulling data gathered from formal assessments and day to day interactions together, makes that data useful. It helps to focus on writing interpretive/narrative summaries, developing hypotheses, and strategically matching treatment recommendations.
Taking big picture treatment goals and breaking them down into actionable, and achievable steps makes a number of positive actions. For example, focusing on negotiating shorter-term goals, objectives that address behavior health, and making smart SMART-ish objectives SMARTer.
Matching the steps consumers are taking with the interventions (i.e. services and supports) that we can provide, this course will focus on psycho-education and shared decision-making, problem-solving strategies, and it includes interventions that foster collaboration.
This training provides strategies for letting your plan guide meetings, make contact noting quicker, clearer, more targeted and more efficient. This is done by focusing on agenda-setting practices, addressing “non-compliance” more effectively, and learning efficient documentation of contact and meetings.
For program staff who complete the DLA20* as part of PBHS PRP, RRP, ACT and Mobile Treatment Teams, how can the rational for the ratings inform problem-solving interventions to address barriers/challenges and how areas of strengths might be leveraged to make progress? This training will focus on going from what to why by looking at scores and finding the strengths within areas where consumers are rated higher. Bring your own (de-identified) examples and questions for the group problem-solving.
Please note – the is NOT a DLA-20 training and CANNOT be taken as a substitute for the DLA-20 training.
This session is great for behavioral health professionals who are not trained clinicians, translating clinical jargon into real-usable language for better engagement with consumers. It will focus on what diagnosis means, reviewing the most frequent behavioral health diagnoses, and using observations of signs and symptoms to advocate with consumers.
Please note – by popular request this topic runs longer to accommodate review of more examples and diagnoses.
Practice what you’ve learned in PCCP introductory trainings. Each week we will use a sample person-centered assessment to develop an Interpretive Summary and a Treatment Plan focusing on one category of barriers or needs. In these highly interactive webinar activities we will include small group work, independent work, and processing and problem-solving with the larger group of participants.
All PCCP Case Study Webinars will be conducted by trainer Kris Wright, LCPC.
Using Crisis Plans as an effective part of counseling to build resilience to symptom increases and life stressors. In addition to being a useful (and in some cases required) document, Crisis Plans can guide important conversations about medication use and changes, self-monitoring and using supports to monitor changes in symptoms and coping, and proactive planning for when additional supports are needed. Products of Person-Centered Crisis Planning include fostering consumers’ skills for self-advocacy and creating records we can use to advocate on consumers’ behalf for times when they are unable to self-advocate effectively.
All sessions will be hosted via webinar with trainer Kris Wright, LCPC.
When participants in Maryland’s Public Behavioral Health System (PBHS) Residential Rehabilitation Program (RRP) services are at risk of losing their placement, policy calls for the development of a Managed Intervention Plan. The intent of developing an intervention plan is to provide a coaching experience for consumers so they can be successful in their time with our programs, instead of having to be discharged for rule violations/code of conduct. This training will cover how to engage with consumers to explore the alternatives, how the provider can assist, and what strategies need to be implemented in order to retain the individual in services. The result of this engaging process should be a comprehensive and actionable written plan to prevent discharge from services. Maryland PBHS providers including Residential Rehabilitation Program (RRP) providers including direct service staff, organizational leadership and collaborating professionals e.g. clinicians, QA staff, and LBHA representatives are welcome to attend.
As behavioral health services and supports have evolved, one of our most powerful lessons learned is that pressuring “compliance” or “treatment adherence” does not work. We cannot force people into health and wellness. Taking pills and/or attending appointments is not sufficient for achieving wellness. Words like compliance, adherence, and attendance persist in interactions and in documentation. At the same time, problems with disengagement and dropout persist. Research on person-centered care supports shifts to language and approaches that are more empowering and engaging. In this training we will identify common pitfalls and strategies for being more engaging and empowering including effective listening, collaborative decision making, and matching approaches to stages of change.
