Purpose

The programs and trainings listed in the Workshop Calendar are organized by national state or local training organizations or by fellow therapists to help you meet your professional training requirements and are presented in the greater Seattle, Tacoma, Everett, Washington, King County, Snohomish County, Kitsap County, Pierce County, WA, Puget Sound area in Washington State.

The CounselingSeattle.com Workshop Calendar is intended to publicize programs that provide the mental health counselor, therapist, social worker, psychotherapist or chemical dependency professional with training activities to meet Washington State requirements for licensed and registered counselors and professionals in psychology, social work and related fields.

Whether you are looking for CEU's, CECs, (work shops in professional continuing education units, or continuing education credits) satisfying continuing licensure or certification requirements or just want to add to your social work or counseling skills, the wide selection of program offerings help to satisfy a great variety of special interests and needs.  Return to this page each month as offerings change month.

Licensure and certification in professional counseling require the therapist to participate continuing education to strengthen counselor psychotherapy skills and abilities.

Note on us: on CounselingSeattle.com Workshop Calendar page. Adding an apostrophe "s" to a set of initials is a possessive form which we consider incorrect usage. Therefore, we use upper case initials with a lower case "s" to show the plural form. Specifically, we use "CEUs" for Continuing education units [rather than CEU's], "CECs" for Continuing Education Credits [rather than CEC's], CEHs for Continuing Education Hours [rather than CEH's] and PDHs for Professional Development Hours [rather than PDH's].
