THIS COURSE OFFERS 6 CE HOURS IN ETHICS
Two Time Offerings: 10 am - 4 pm & 3 pm - 9 pm
The DSM-5® has changed the cultural criteria in both assessment and treatment of mental health. Integrating these new approaches is essential to ethical and competent practice. Watch this seminar with expert Dr. Jose Vasquez, and you will learn how to incorporate the new DSM-5® criteria and adapt evidence-based models in a culturally sensitive context. By identifying cultural influences and breaking down stereotypes and biases, you can build a stronger rapport with your diverse clients and achieve better therapeutic outcomes.
You will develop the skills to:
Navigate through language barriers
Overcome religious and cultural issues in mental health
Adapt treatment for specific groups
Identify cultural trauma and psychosomatic distress
Promote resiliency in your clients
Using case examples, exercises, and plenty of humor, Dr. Vasquez will help deepen your cultural mindfulness in the clinical setting. You will leave feeling confident dealing with diverse clients and better equipped to overcome the challenging demands of cultural competence.
Seattle Therapists Corner is offering this PESI course virtually. We will be showing this course twice on this day, so that you can join at different times, according to your availability. The different start times are:
10 am - 4 pm
3 pm - 9 pm
Our hope is to make this convenient and accessible. Once you register, you will be sent a schedule and links to the two viewing times.
