  Abstract: 

  Despite rapid adoption of video-based telehealth among clinical psychologists, research has long suggested variable preparation among healthcare practitioners both prior to and post COVID-19 (Dopp et al., 2021; Glueckauf et al., 2018; Montoya et al., 2022; Perle et al., 2024; 2023; Sammons et al., 2020). Researchers and guiding organizations have suggested an ongoing need for practitioner training that can begin in graduate school and continue into their licensed career as continuing education activities (Dopp et al., 2021; Frye et al, 2022; Perle, 2021). Unfortunately, telehealth literature and training series fragmentation, as well as a lack of specificity in training programming, continue to be challenges limiting a clinical psychologist’s ability to acquire necessary knowledge of the numerous competencies relevant to a telehealth-based psychological service. The current presentation is designed to provide clinical psychologists with a broad overview of both ethical and legal considerations relevant to the use of videoconferencing in psychological healthcare services.

  Objectives:

  1. Identify the key elements of contemporary psychology-focused videoconferencing research. 
  2. Identify and detail at least three common ethical and/or legal considerations for videoconferencing-based practice. 
  3. Describe considerations with cross-jurisdiction videoconferencing-based practice.

  Speaker: Jeanane Ferre, PhD

  Level of Activity: Introductory

  Abstract:

  Understanding central auditory processing disorders may be complex but it need not be complicated. This instructional course describes the neuroscientific foundations of “auditory processing” – often defined as “what we do with what we hear”, clarifying the continuum of skills that is encompassed by that term. Topics include development of processing skills, shared symptomatology across various sensory and neurocognitive disorders, assessment techniques for differential diagnosis of central auditory processing disorders from among other communicative and neurocognitive disorders, impact of processing disorders on academics, communication, and life skills, and differential intervention, including management strategies and treatment goals for improving auditory processing skills. especially among school-age listeners.

  Objectives:

  1. Describe continuum and development of auditory processing skills.
  2. Describe various assessment techniques that probe skills along the processing continuum.
  3. Describe behavioral characteristics of central auditory processing and related deficits.
  4. Describe effective intervention strategies for use at home and school.
