Content: DC: 0-3 R™ responds to the needs for a diagnostic system that accounts for the unique developmental and relational needs of infants/toddlers in the context of their families. This 2 day intensive workshop for mental health clinicians, supervisors and other therapists addresses: the axes and diagnostic classifications used in DC: 0-3 R™; assessment, evaluation and diagnosis of very young children; and use of crosswalks between ZERO TO THREE’s DC: 0-3 R™ and DSM-IV and ICD-9 or 10. This in-depth training will use lecture, video, case presentation and discussion. Participants will discuss the unique developmental needs of very young children and apply clinical reasoning in developing diagnoses using clinical videotaping or printed case examples.
Presenter: Donna R. Weston, Ph.D., Developmental Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, and infant mental health clinician with over 25 years of experience, and a member of ZERO TO THREE’s DC: 0-3 Task Force and Training Task Force. Dr. Weston is also in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Washington and has a private practice in Seattle, Washington.
