Many folx from bicultural communities are seeking mental health services.

And, because 1 in 4 children in the US have at least one immigrant parent, we can expect that client population to continue growing.

Bicultural individuals must undertake the complex task of constructing identities drawn from dual, or multiple, cultural foundations.

This course is designed to prepare mental health professionals of all disciplines to meet the unique needs of their bicultural clients.

Participants will meet these learning objectives.

  • Gain a rich understanding of Bicultural Identity Integration

  • Obtain a better understanding of interpersonal and family dynamics in the bicultural experience

  • Identify specific life areas to explore in session

  • Explore predictors for improved mental health outcomes

  • Discover effective theoretical approaches and foundations

  • Acquire communication tactics and resources to share with your bicultural clients
