Webinar: Polarities of American Culture and the Impact on Therapy: Amish/Las Vegas (4 CE’s)
2026-08-07 13:00 - 17:15
Description of Training:
The Amish and Las Vegas are symbols of two polarities in American culture, in the world and within ourselves. Las Vegas represents fast pace, instant gratification, materialism, risk, impulse, excitement, and individualism. The Amish symbolize simplicity, plainness, selflessness, community, slow change, and humility. The workshop will explore a clinical integrative model that links how thoughts, behavior, biology and feelings and values are interacting in our clients and in ourselves. A cultural/therapy model gives us a wider clinical perspective of how ADHD, depression, anxiety, addiction, family dysfunction, and trauma affects our lives. We will explore cultural context and how to identify skills to regulate cultural polarities that affect our dynamics and symptoms such as: under and over stimulation, self- oriented versus other- directed, denial of loss versus honoring loss, violence versus nonviolence, present versus past, enmeshment versus disengagement and blaming versus accepting. This workshop will be a fascinating, informative, engaging blend of culture/ therapy information, stories, discussions and suggestion on how to resolve the tensions in the Amish/Las Vegas polarity that are within many clinical settings. Meets Cultural Competency CE requirement.

Description of Training:
Prolonged Grief Disorder is a new diagnosis announced in DSM-V-TR during the 2022 COVID-19 pandemic, a time of rapidly rising environmental concerns, social concerns and gun violence. We will examine what this recent diagnosis is and explore the positive and controversial aspects of it. The workshop will delineate “normal” grief from prolonged grief disorder. We will explore death and non-death losses in clinical work (divorce, unemployment, illness, social justice issues, etc.) and how these losses need to be identified and understood as a dual process model between the shifting dynamics of loss and resilience.
The workshop will explore Kubler- Ross and Kessler’s” five stages of grief theory” and how it has been challenged by research findings for over the last twenty years. This workshop will explore a response theory approach to grief and bereavement as opposed to distinct and finite stages and explore a dual process model of coping with bereavement and non-death loss and grief. A focus will be on identifying the evidenced based risk factors of prolonged grief disorder and explore culturally sensitive approaches in dealing with grief and bereavement. The workshop will examine scales that can help with identification of prolonged grief disorder.
This workshop will combine finding meaning in death and non-death loss with an integrative tool-based approach that can be adapted to a wide variety individuals and socio-cultural identities. Meets Cultural Competency CE requirement.
