Course Description:

 

This 8-week clinical consultation group combines shared learning community, didactic

teaching, and case consultation. Each session moves through a foundational pillar of

a liberation-informed clinical framework grounded in both evidence-based and

practice-based contributions with the intention of supporting a shift in how clinicians

receive and hold Latine and other historically oppressed populations with greater

cultural attunement, depth, and justice.

To read full description of the course, see Syllabus for the course

Please note: This clinical space is designed for licensed and pre-licensed mental health professionals with an active clinical caseload as it requires the ability to bring real client material to case consultation. Individuals who are not currently practicing in a clinical capacity are not eligible to participate. If a registration is received from an individual who does not meet eligibility requirements, a full refund will be issued and enrollment will not be confirmed.

Course Key Objectives:

Participants attending the full 16.0 course will meet 8 distinct learning objectives (1 per session). Selected course objectives include:

1.  Identify and demonstrate at least 2 clinical applications of the Use-of-Self as a foundational tool, integrating self-examination and personal clinical reflection into case consultation and peer feedback.

2.  Apply at least 2 clinical assessment skills, including identifying and synthesizing clinical findings, by analyzing their own client material and offering structured feedback on the clinical material of fellow participants.

3.  Integrate the 5 Pillars of the liberation-informed clinical framework into clinical reflections and case consultations across the 8-session course, including the application of theory.
