The Science of Hope
Oct. 18th | 4pm-6pm EST | 2 CE's | Michael Chiappone, LCSW
Class Description
Hope is not just a concept; it is a tool that can play a crucial role in helping people. During this human experience, hope can assist people to reach goals, find happiness, and improve their health and wellbeing. With my extensive experience in social work and as a continuing education provider, I will walk you through the science of hope: how it works with our mind and body to improve health, how it looks and, how to foster hope when feeling hopeless. In this course, you will develop a deeper understanding of just how important hope is to your client's overall quality of life. After attending the course, participants will be able to; identify evidence-based theories of hope; discuss the four types of hope; describe the physical, cognitive and emotional benefits of hope; learn how to measure hope; and discover how to engage clients in fostering hope.

His work has primarily focused on assisting people who are homeless, mentally ill, or living with Substance Use Disorder. He also sees clients who seek help for a variety of reasons.
