TRAINING DETAILS:

Black families utilize racial socialization to negate the negative consequences of interpersonal (e.g., physical abuse) and racial stressors (e.g., witnessing police brutality in the media, microaggressions). This webinar provides an overview of interpersonal and racial trauma and racial socialization; presents research on systemic, organizational, client, and provider barriers and facilitators to mental health service utilization; and discusses strategies clinicians can PRACTICE (Psychoeducation, Relaxation, Affect identification and modulation, Cognitive restructuring, Trauma narrative, In-vivo exposure, Conjoint parent-child sessions, Enhancing safety) to integrate racial socialization into treatment to help Black youth and families access and engage in treatment while empowering them to heal from experiences with interpersonal and racial stress and trauma.

 

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Identify three ways that racial socialization and interpersonal and racial stress and trauma impact development for Black youth;
• Describe four barriers and facilitators to service utilization for Black youth and families;
• Contribute to multidisciplinary teams to assist in making culturally informed decisions pertaining to engagement, assessment, and treatment of Black youth;
• Explain their personal identity to clients to build rapport and trust and to serve as an ally and advocate in the therapeutic space; and
• List four applied strategies for integrating racial socialization into clinical care in a culturally affirming and validating manner
