Applying a De-Colonizing Conceptualization to Service Delivery: CAMFT CEUs

This course qualifies for CAMFT CEUs.

Still building this training, but here arre my first initial thoughts - This training will be provide ideas and concepts brought forward from the book De-Colonizing Therapy by Jennifer Mullan. The training will focus on supporting participants to question the western ways in which service delivery has been built on in the mental health system. We will think of additional ways to engage in conceptualization of services, including engagement strategies, assessment, and treatment.
