Culturally stressful events (CSEs) capture the moments individuals feel they experience negative judgment, mistreatment, or denied opportunities due (in part) to their cultural background. CSEs, unfortunately, continue to be social, emotional, and cognitive stressors that persons of color (POCs) are tasked with learning to navigate in their daily lives. However, it can be hard, as clinicians, to know how to efficiently conceptualize the impacts of CSEs in ways that clarify avenues for offering support and healing. In this presentation, attendees will learn to use components of the Racial, Ethnic, and Cultural Healing Unifying Principles (DeLapp & Gallo, 2022; DeLapp & DeLapp, 2024) to conceptualize and then flexibly adapt their treatment plans for the impacts of racial and cultural experiences when working with POCs. Specifically, this presentation will begin by helping clinicians learn what they can do before conversations on cultural stress to promote a safe and sensitive space for POCs to explore and receive support for CSEs. Also, clinicians will receive tips for broaching conversations related to CSEs. Finally, the presentation will offer an overview of treatment options for supporting POCs in coping with and navigating the following impacts of experiencing CSEs: 1. Emotional Stress: the intense and uncomfortable emotional responses caused by CSEs. 2. Identity Stress: the ways CSEs can impact one’s sense of self-love, self-confidence, and cultural pride. 3. Agency Stress: the ways CSEs undermine one’s sense of agency and control within their surroundings. Facilitator: Ryan DeLapp, Ph.D. [Note] This webinar was filmed on June 23, 2025, and may not reflect the most current information and laws regarding this topic. Learning Objectives Engage in self-reflection and educational activities that prepare them to sensitively and humbly engage in discussions about race and culture with clients.

Identify when a client’s disclosures suggest they are experiencing Emotional, Identity, or Agency Stresses. Create culturally responsive treatment plans that flexibly target these 3-ways racial and cultural stress can impact POCs.

This webinar will explore the diversity model of disability and how although disability is included in most definitions of diversity, it is rarely fully integrated into diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. Drs. Kara Ayers and Erin Andrews will discuss contemporary trends in disability language and introduce the concept of disability culture. Pertinent attitudes that affect the lived experience of disabled people will be explored. Drs. Ayers and Andrews will offer strategies for practitioners in the field to recognize and counteract ableism and highlight the role of psychology in promoting equity and reducing discrimination in healthcare. By understanding the rights of disabled individuals and exploring resources and support mechanisms, psychologists can become pivotal advocates in dismantling these barriers. The presentation will underscore the importance of inclusive policies and practices that address the specific needs of disabled people. Clinically relevant suggestions for culturally competent care for persons with disabilities will be offered. Featuring: Erin Andrews-Ash, Psy.D., ABPP, and Kara B. Ayers, Ph.D. [Note] This webinar was filmed on August 27, 2024, and may not reflect the most current information and laws regarding this topic.

Research indicates that youth of color – those that identify as Native American, Black/African American, Latino/x, Asian Americans, etc. – may be exposed to racism and discrimination leading to symptoms of racial stress or race-based stress. Racial stress is a psychological reaction resulting from experiencing types of racial discrimination and oppression.  As a clinician, it is important to understand how these experiences may impact youth of color to identify coping resources and to promote resilience.  This webinar aims to discuss the psychological impacts of racism and identify strategies to support youth of color in multiple settings (e.g., schools or clinical practice). Specifically, participants will learn at least two psychological effects of racial discrimination on youth of color. Participants will also learn at strategies for managing symptoms of racial stress among youth of color.

Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people seek psychotherapy for a variety of concerns. Yet, the TGD community consistently reports having poor experiences with mental health care. Some of the reasons for this are providers’ lack of knowledge of affirming language, transgender identities, intersecting identities, common life experiences, and clinical concerns of this community. The mental health disparities experienced by the TGD community further highlight the need for more training for psychologists to provide gender affirming care to TGD individuals. This webinar aims to bridge this gap by providing participants with the introductory knowledge and skills necessary to begin providing affirming care to TGD individuals. Participants will also be given the tools to increase their awareness of and challenge their own biases related to TGD people. Participants will leave this webinar with an understanding of how to continue their education about working with TGD individuals and cultivating a gender affirming practice. Featuring: Milo Wilson, Ph.D.; Katherine Nordal, Ph.D. (Moderator) [Note] This webinar was filmed on November 30, 2022, and may not reflect the most current information and laws regarding this topic. Learning Objectives Describe the key terminology and issues experienced by transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people. Demonstrate an understanding of common clinical concerns experienced by TGD individuals. Explain how intersecting identities impact TGD people. Assess awareness of and begin to challenge biases that may have implications for interactions with TGD people in a therapy setting. Compile basic skills necessary to provide gender affirming mental health services to TGD individuals.
