Course Description
With a growing awareness of trauma and its impact on an individual, we are learning that we need to not only consider what has happened in the individual’s lifetime but need to also consider what happened in the lives of previous generations in their families and how that impacts the individual. Some providers work with populations that can be challenging given the generational patterns of trauma, poverty, incarceration, etc. their families have experienced. It is essential for providers to understand generational trauma and how to support their clients from a generational perspective. Without this perspective, clinicians can have unrealistic expectations for their clients and their families and encounter barriers to engagement. This course will address generation trauma within the African American, Native, Latino, and Asian American communities, as well as for Holocaust survivors. Specific examples will be provided on how to address generational trauma that clinicians can utilize in their work with clients.
