SUMMARY:Webinar: Polarities of American Culture and the Impact on Therapy: Amish/Las Vegas (4 CE’s)
DESCRIPTION:Description of Training: \nThe 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. \nThis training will be conducted in a webinar format. You will receive an email prior to the webinar with instructions on how to sign in to the webinar. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nEmphasize the presence of polarities that exist in culture and ourselves.\nHighlight a trans-theoretical model that integrates mind/mood/behaviors and the body with culture/environment.\nLearn how to integrate a holistic cultural perspective with dynamic tensions such as self-directed other directed.\nLearn how the Technology Gap theory can help us better understand how our clients are affected by technological forces (cell phones\, computers\, etc.) and how to problem solve collaboratively and manage technology use.\nExamine approaches to minimize self and other directed violence.\n\n
