Description
Summary:How do mental health professionals work toward multicultural competence? One place to start is to begin the process of self-awareness, particularly in the area of socially privileged identities. In this ground-breaking series, Lew Schlosser interviews psychologists with expertise in six key areas of privilege: White, Heterosexual, Christian, Ability, Male and Social Class. In addition to learning how to personally connect with one's own socially privileged identities, students and professionals of all ethnicities and races will learn how privilege manifests itself in everyday life, how it affects the therapeutic process, and how we can take steps to dismantle privilege. Thought-provoking and insightful, this video is sure to spark discussion and even debate in class. This video brings the power of often missed multicultural issues to the center of our practice.
