The Effort in Family and its Impact Upon Workplace Effectiveness 

Kenton Derstine, MDiv, DMin 

Friday, January 16, 2026 *Online – #2 of the Clinical Conference Package 

This conference will explore the idea that the effort for differentiation of self in one's family contributes to enhanced functioning in the workplace. Awareness of the emotional and relationship patterns across preceding generations can inform the effort to become a more connected and responsible self in one's family as well as the workplace. In addition to exploring key theoretical elements, a clinical interview will be shown to illustrate the interplay between the effort in one’s family and in one’s work. 

The conference day provides a maximum of 2.75 hours of Category I Continuing Education credit for social workers and for counselors. Please note- a separate registration is required for CEs. Please review our CE requirements and policy on our website.
