Healing Interpersonal & Racial Trauma: Integrating Racial Socialization into TF-CBT for Black Youth & Families

Black families utilize racial socialization to negate the negative consequences of interpersonal (e.g., physical abuse) and racial stressors (e.g., witnessing police brutality in the media, microaggressions). This webinar provides an overview of interpersonal and racial trauma and racial socialization; presents research on systemic, organizational, client, and provider barriers and facilitators to mental health service utilization; and discusses strategies clinicians can PRACTICE (Psychoeducation, Relaxation, Affect identification and modulation, Cognitive restructuring, Trauma narrative, In-vivo exposure, Conjoint parent-child sessions, Enhancing safety) to integrate racial socialization into treatment to help Black youth and families access and engage in treatment while empowering them to heal from experiences with interpersonal and racial stress and trauma.
