The Summit for Clinical Excellence:  Cutting-Edge Content.  Field-Leading Experts.
The Summit for Clinical Excellence consistently makes your conference experience count with cutting-edge content presented by renowned speakers that stand out as pioneers in their fields, best-selling authors, and leading experts. Our advanced clinical training features the top faculty and authors in the field of mental health who cover today's issues.
 
Shame has been called "an unspoken epidemic." As our society develops more sensitivity and awareness of the impact of trauma, professionals are also recognizing the impact of shame and its connection to relationship disruption, the opioid crisis and substance use, mental health issues, and body image and disordered eating problems.

The Summit for Clinical Excellence invites you to join experts on the concepts of shame, trauma, and addiction to hear their perspectives, discuss treatment methodologies with your colleagues, and explore ways to improve the lives of your patients, your communities, and even yourselves.
