Provider ceu workshop: Understanding the impact of acculturation on self care in the asian culture

Feb 15th & 16th 9:30am-12:30pm EST | Zoom

The focus of this 2 day workshop will be to provide psychoeducation on acculturation and collectivism and its impact on self-care. Gender roles delineate family responsibilities and traditionally there is very little importance placed on self-care and mental health needs. In fact, engaging in activities and behaviors that promote self-care may be viewed as disrespectful, selfish, or even in extreme cases a loss of cultural values. It is important to recognize that although there are many overlapping macro societal similarities the Asian diaspora is not homogeneous. The goal is to create a culturally safe environment for clients and create strategies that align with mental health while honoring nation of origin identities. Teaching methods include lecture, interactive exercises, and group participation/discussion. Both days (2/15 & 2/16, 9:30 am-12:30 pm) of training must be completed, partial or one day attendance will not be honored.
