Workshop Description
How does CBT, without an anti-oppressive approach, cause harm? What about EMDR? How do mainstream psychological theories minimize and ignore the realities of people with disabilities, LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, immigrants and refugees, and folx from various ethno-religions? This workshop will respond to these questions, and describe ways that mental health professionals can apply strategies to integrate an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, anti-ableist approach to our most common therapeutic techniques. 

 

Learning Objectives

After the completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

1.    Identify and describe harm caused by common psychological theories
2.    Apply strategies to integrate an anti-oppressive approach to traditional techniques
3.    Evaluate one’s own practice in serving marginalized and oppressed individuals and communities

This workshop is approved for 2.0 continuing education credit hours.
