Contemporary Cultural Competence
Contemporary Cultural Competence. Live Zoom online Embedding Context & Identity into Therapeutic Practice. Fri 24th Jan 25.
With PLAYBACK RECORDING
“All relationships are cross-cultural relationships. We differ by our contexts, worldviews, and geographically situated socio-cultural experiences”
This training will help you develop awareness, knowledge, and skills in working relative to the client’s cultural context(s)*, identity, belief systems, worldviews, and conflicts of acculturation. This training will move you towards a deeper and more empathic understanding of clients’ difficulties relative to their lived cultural experiences. As research has shown that therapists’ awareness of their own cultural identity mediates client outcomes, this training will guide you through experiential exercises to help you reflect on your own cultural context(s), identity, worldview, and conflicts and develop skills in developing cross-cultural relationships. You will have the opportunity to apply your learning interactively and in small group sessions in preparation for therapeutic practice.
This foundation training will form the basis for working in a socially conscious manner, such as with the effects of cultural normativity on self, when working with the identity, variation, and marginalisation experiences of clients.
*Cultural contexts such as geographical, social, group identities, national, group, family, work, and the psychological effects of displacement, movement, and acculturation within the dominant society
Overview
The training is structured into eight units, with discussions, exercises, case examples, and practical interventions and strategies provided throughout. There will be opportunities to ask questions, bring in your own experiences of practise, and gain insight from therapists with experience working with cultural competence and clients’ worldviews within therapeutic practice.

“This was a seamlessly run, exceptional training. I don't think that you could've done any better. I am still processing the day's contents but I know that I will be able to access the information when I am in sessions because this has happened after the previous course.(It is embodied learning.) I thought that the structure and organisation of the course material was really well thought out; the start of the course was really powerful and the way that you interwove the case study and built in the role play really helped my learning. I would enrol for a two day course specifically with TADF as I know how exceptional the training is. Thank you for an excellent but sadly much needed day. ”
N.E“Excellent course. Good pre course prep. Liked the presenters. Loved the authenticity of trainers. Engaging material. I think you delivered a full programme you presented it in such a way that it was art he same time challenging and gentle . Worked well together informative and a variety of teaching methods.”
V.G“I’ve taken so much learning from the course, including of course a greater awareness of race based trauma and stress through the modules. I feel I can better support my clients as a result. I am glad I have access to the recording as I feel I will need to rewatch and revisit to consolidate the learning and think the platform is a great resource.”
