Summary
This online course is designed for use with the Seeking Safety Adherence Scale, also known as a fidelity scale. The 1-hour video for this course shows a clinician conducting a group session with real clients, unscripted, using the topic "Healthy Relationships" from the Seeking Safety book. The session was designed to show both good and poor elements. The session can be rated using the Seeking Safety Adherence Scale and Seeking Safety Adherence Scale Score Sheet (free downloads). You can compare your rating to the expert rating as a learning exercise for clinical purposes or for research purposes (e.g., to aid inter-rater reliability estimation).
