Description:
Enhance your cultural competence in psychiatric rehabilitation with Dr. Lauren Mizock in this online course. Focus on the process of acceptance of a mental health problem among, and examine ways to promote acceptance and recovery for, individuals across diverse racial-ethnic cultural groups. Explore the process of acceptance for persons in recovery as a complex process of learning to deal with challenging mental health experiences in order to enhance empowerment, mental wellness, and personal growth.
