Breakout 5B

Evidence-Based Treatment Planning and Mental Health Billing in Special Education

Julia Wippler, Olivia Sheehan, Hannah Rider & Brianna Havelka

Navigating the intersection of Special Education (IEP) goals and clinical mental health treatment requires more than just good intentions—it requires a data-driven, evidence-based framework. This workshop provides a comprehensive review of mental health services within Anoka-Hennepin Special Education programs, focusing on the transition from general Social, Emotional, and Behavioral (SEB) goals to specialized treatment goals.

​

Learning Objectives:

  1. Identify evidence-based interventions that support school mental health services and align with third-party billing and clinical supervision requirements.

  2. Compare intervention approaches including DBT-informed practices, CBT programs, Overcoming Obstacles, and Aggression Replacement Training (ART).

  3. Develop SMARTIE goals that connect clinical necessity with academic and behavioral outcomes.
