In this two-hour workshop, a critical understanding of historical and current global colonialism will be facilitated. Participants will be invited to think about decolonizing various aspects of the therapeutic process from assessment, diagnosis, and intervention. Participants will also be asked to apply critical race theory to the therapeutic relationship and consider ways to decolonize the psychotherapeutic process.
This is free online course. This course is for therapists, social workers and other mental health professionals.
