PSY 678 - Clinical Issues and Interventions with Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Minorities

3
This advanced diversity course builds upon the foundational knowledge from the Social Psychology and Individual Diversity (PCO 641), and GLBT Issues Across the Lifespan (PSY-674). This course will explore mental health and substance abuse problems prevalent with sexual orientation minorities and gender non-conforming people paying close attention to those most underserved and underrepresented. The course will focus on skill building case conceptualization and clinical intervention techniques for working with this population, as well as addressing the impact of oppressive systems on health and dysfunction. Providing supervision around sexual orientation and gender variance in training will also be addressed.
