Program Description:  

We live in extraordinary times when many Americans (including psychologists) are experiencing disruptions in their relationships, including psychotherapeutic relationships, because of political polarization. The workshop will present participants with strategies to help them provide compassionate and effective services to patients with perspectives they view as polarizing. There will be an opportunity for participant interaction, and helpful resources will be provided. This program is limited to 50 participants.

Program Learning Objectives: At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

1. Identify difficulties in psychotherapy with patients they perceive to have highly polarizing political beliefs.
2. Describe options to psychologists to deliver high-quality psychological services to patients who contribute to or who are impacted by political and cultural polarization.
