Anti-Racist Telehealth Practices for Racial/Ethnic Trauma Healing

Overview

The goal of this presentation is to deepen the participants’ understanding of the experience of Racial/Ethnic Stress and Trauma of clients who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) as they access and engage in behavioral health services provided through telehealth during this time of the COVID-19 and racism pandemics (Cheng & Conca-Cheng, 2020). Within the context of the growing prevalence of racial discrimination among BIPOC communities and its consistent relationship with Racial/Ethnic Stress and Trauma; this presentation will highlight existing trauma-focused, evidence-based, and community-centered practices that can be tele-adapted to help BIPOC clients heal in their racial/ethnic trauma.  Finally, strategies for effective assessment and intervention of racial/ethnic trauma using video, audio/phone, app-based, and internet platforms will be discussed.

Learning Objectives

  • Define racial trauma within the context of behavioral health assessment and intervention of BIPOC clients.

  • Identify and describe at least two ways of addressing telehealth inequities and the digital divide when working with BIPOC clients.

  • Illustrate at least two methods of culturally-adapting trauma-focused interventions using telehealth platforms when working with BIPOC clients who present with racial/ethnic trauma.
