Skills for Psychological Recovery (SPR)
This is a series of six virtual training sessions. We will learn one skill each session every Wednesday starting May 26, 2021 – June 30, 2021, from 12 – 1 pm CDT. You must attend ALL six sessions to receive CEUs and certification as an SPR coach.
SPR is an evidence-informed intervention designed to help individuals gain skills to reduce ongoing distress, promote resilience, and effectively cope in the weeks and months following a disaster or crisis. The SPR intervention is intended for individuals needing more than a single, brief intervention by a non-specialist but not necessarily needing full treatment for depression, anxiety, or PTSD. SPR skills focus on improving social support, helpful thinking, problem-solving, managing distressing responses to disaster reminders, and increasing positive activities.

I want to follow up on the presentation by Glenn. It had me in tears, he was so placid and understanding in his tone and his words hit deep. I appreciate the coalition so much, offering this and then also opening it up to everyone no matter what they do or where they are at. I can’t thank you enough for what I call these professional gems, the things that make the days shine brighter.
I’m so impressed with the wellnessmn website and resources. I downloaded a few of the materials today to give to patients and also forwarded the site to the Provider Wellness Committee at my hospital.
