@casey_briege talks about her work to identify the prevalence of autism in adults experiencing homeless in Ireland using the DATHI interview utilised by @AChurchard. Prevalence of 9.4% identified. @PathwayUK

[BABCP Anti Racism SIG @BABCPAntiRacism]

Really exciting opportunity for CBT therapists from a minoritised ethnicity! A pilot SP/SR programme from a very enthusiastic and passionate research team.

[Alasdair Churchard @AChurchard]

All CBT therapists from a minority ethnic background: would you like to explore how your ethnic identity relates to your clinical role? If so this research is a chance to do so. More details in the tweet below

Why should psychotherapists have an awareness of history? I spoke about this in relation to working therapeutically with people from minoritised ethnicities recently. Webinar only accessible to
@UK_ACP members unfortunately but I'm hoping to do more on this topic in next year

[ACP_UKPOAN @ACP_UKPOAN]

Now available to @UK_ACP #PsychologyOfAgeingNetwork members a fascinating webinar by @AChurchard

'The Importance of Historical Knowledge in Working Therapeutically with Clients from Minoritised Ethnicities'

[Alasdair Churchard @AChurchard]

Thanks for the really helpful training today on mentoring for psychological professionals from minoritised ethnicities! @MasumaRahim @SabinahJanally @amrarao

[Alasdair Churchard @AChurchard]

6/6 All an initial exploration of this area. I think it makes some interesting links and suggests steps that can be taken to improve therapist skill, but I'm keen for feedback and to see if this model could be developed further.

5/6 I've tried to draw on work by @DrMonnica, David Sue, Alex Pieterse among others to bring in the systemic context. And also of course @andrewbeck45 on transcultural CBT

[Alasdair Churchard @AChurchard]

My new article on therapist skill development with service users from minoritised ethnicities - I'd be keen to get feedback on the theory and practical implications. Thanks to @rthwaites for being so supportive as I worked on this!
