This workshop explores the ways social class differences shape our society and influence the therapeutic relationship. We will examine the growing economic inequality in the United States, with particular attention to disparities within the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. The session will also address common biases held by psychologists and highlight the importance of delivering both culturally appropriate and culturally responsive care—especially when financial concerns are part of the clinical picture. Through a combination of didactic learning, guided discussion, and small-group breakout sessions, participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their own social class backgrounds and consider how these experiences inform their clinical work.

"Are You Prepared to Talk with Patients About Alcohol?” is designed to enhance the ability of psychologists and other mental health professionals to discuss their patients’ alcohol use with them. This presentation covers the significant impact of heavy drinking on mental health and provides evidence-based approaches for screening, assessment, brief advice, and tailored therapies. The presentation addresses the continuum of alcohol use, the prevalence of alcohol use disorder (AUD), the many common comorbid mental health conditions, and the importance of overcoming stigma to facilitate open conversations about alcohol and acceptance of treatment. Additionally, it explains brain changes in addiction and recovery, highlights the benefits of medications for AUD, and encourages collaboration with prescribers to provide comprehensive care. Patient resources are also provided, equipping therapists with the knowledge and tools needed to support their patients effectively.
DPA is excited to offer this free CEU opportunity focusing on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion exclusively for our members!
