Black & LGBTQ+: Understanding Intersectional Treatment Conversations
A Recorded Webinar
Recorded on Thursday, February 9, 2023
Description
According to the most recent Gallup Daily Tracking Poll, more than 1.2 million adults in the United States identify as both Black and LGBTQ+; that’s 40% of LGBTQ+ adults (Gallup Daily Tracking Poll, 2021). Critical issues in the Black community and critical issues in the LGBTQ+ community equally impact disparities for individuals who represent both communities. When examining intersectionality, counselors must understand that a patient’s life cannot be easily explained by single categories, such as gender, race and sexual orientation. This presentation will provide guidance on how individualized assessment and treatment can include addressing discrimination that arises at the intersection of multiple identities.
Learning Objectives
- Participants will be able to define intersectionality and how it impacts clients who are both Black and members of the LGBTQiA+ community.
- Participants will be able to describe three ways to incorporate intersectionality and identity into treatment assessment.
- Participants will be able to incprporate three strategies into treatment on how to address discrimination that arises at the intersection of multiple identities.
