Training Description:
This didactic will assist clinical helpers to understand, recognize, and position themselves in identifying identity-based trauma when working with clients, regardless of the helper’s personal identity. Participants will engage is self- exploration and will be challenged to take a critical assessment of their ability to treat diverse clients in an effective and cultural informed manner. Through experiential learning, participants will begin to develop competencies to engage in critical conversations with clients who have experienced identity related traumatic injuries and to do so in a manner that enhances the therapeutic relationship and does not lead to further traumatic injury.
