A much needed class for psychotherapists 

9/20/2012

 
This is a much needed class for psychotherapists to enhance their Spanish skills for a variety of populations. I truly enjoyed the guest speaker we had... not to be missed!

The benefits of this class are multi-faceted. It helped me learn the clinical vocabulary and common phrases that I needed to know to be an effective Spanish speaking therapist and really helped me build confidence in my ability to provide psychotherapy in Spanish. I do family therapy with 10 mono-lingual Spanish speaking families per week now, and I couldn't have done that prior to this class.

I feel more prepared...in terms of both vocabulary and cultural sensitivity

The group was both informative and supportive. I feel more prepared to conduct assessments and treatment in Spanish in terms of both vocabulary and cultural sensitivity. Cynthia was flexible and attentive to our needs and desires. I am so grateful for the experience.
