• The unfortunate truth is that most clinicians don’t know enough about Hispanic culture—and variations within it—to effectively treat these clients, especially with issues related to death, dying and bereavement.In this recording, Ligia M. Houben, MA, FT, FAAGC, CPC, author of Counseling Hispanics Through Loss, Grief, and Bereavement: A Guide for Mental Health Professionals, will share valuable information on how to help Hispanic people heal after loss.Ligia will present losses that this population has experienced as a culture and walk you through tools you can use to address grief and loss with your clients.

• You’ll finish this program with new tools that you can use to address the multiple losses experienced by what is now the largest ethnic minority group in the United States.
