Assessment and Psychotherapy with Latine Families Using a Culturally Humble Approach

This training aims to increase overall understanding and knowledge of the Latine culture, which will enable professionals to serve clients from diverse backgrounds in a culturally responsive manner. This training also aims to increase self-awareness of the clinician through the personal construction of a Cultural Genogram and enhance their practice skills by learning how to use Cultural Genograms as a culturally-informed clinical tool. This training will use a combination of didactic training, experiential application of concepts, and group discussion.
