Description
At times, clinicians may struggle with how to address cultural factors in treatment for PTSD sensitively and appropriately. This workshop aims to help providers understand and overcome challenges for discussing identity and culture. The importance of culturally responsive PTSD treatment will be discussed and clear guidelines for the assessment and treatment of cultural strengths and stressors will be presented. Clients may be affected by unique stressors related to their identities and cultural experiences. Culturally responsive treatment helps both providers and clients to better understand how such cultural factors may contribute to past experiences and to leverage cultural strengths.
Attendees will learn strategies to enhance culturally responsive assessment and treatment approaches, in the context of evidence-based treatments for PTSD, such as Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE). Experiential activities will also serve to reinforce learned skills.
