Description
The Asian Women’s Action for Resilience and Empowerment (AWARE) Intervention is an innovative, culturally grounded, holistic group psychotherapy treatment that is designed to treat and prevent mental health problems and health risk behaviors among Asian-American young women. AWARE incorporates a novel trauma-informed psychotherapy approach that is unique to treating women in the Asian-American community.
This free workshop is designed to provide an overview of the extensive research on the mental health of Asian-American women, and introduce the AWARE training certificate which focuses on the cultural, familial, and racial factors to consider when working with this population so that interventions can be effective.
