Join presenter Danica Love Brown, MSW, CACIII, PhD for the next Addiction Psychiatry Advanced Psychotherapy session, “Cultural Considerations in Tribal Behavioral Health Practice,” on Wednesday, December 10 from 5:30-7:00 PM ET.
This presentation delves into cultural considerations when working with Tribal communities, emphasizing the profound impact of historical trauma and ancestor memory, and the importance of culturally grounded approaches to healing. Participants will gain an understanding of trauma’s effects on the whole person, particularly historical, intergenerational trauma and ancestral wisdom, on Tribal communities.
The presentation will highlight the inherent strengths and resilience within Tribal communities, exploring how ancestral wisdom, cultural practices, and community connection serve as protective factors. It will promote the incorporation of Indigenous knowledge and traditions into healing practices to foster overall health and wellness, while also providing practical strategies for building trust and promoting culturally sensitive interventions.
