Talk Therapy Dublin is available to deliver Multicultural Orientation Training, that strives to move beyond traditional cultural competency frameworks. This training will be relevant to those who work with diverse clients, patients and individuals across a wide variety of health, education, community or social care sectors, particularly those linked to roles such as counsellor, support worker, psychologist, social worker, or community worker.

This training will introduce a process-orientated model of working with diversity, such as race/ethnicity, gender, sexuality, socioeconomic status, physical ability, religion, age as well as other aspects of diverse cultural identities. 

This MCO training moves beyond traditional competency frameworks by providing a model focused on client outcomes applicable across different care roles and theoretical modalities that is built on three key pillars:

• Cultural Humility – “A way of being” when working with diversity
• Cultural Opportunities – A way of identifying and working with cultural markers when providing care
• Cultural Comfort – A way of understanding the self in these moments – particularly difficult emotional reactions, interventions etc.

Having provided training for a number of prominent organisations and universities we have found that keeping the training interactive, blending theory with group work, reflective exercises , case studies, videos and other experiential methods tends to be most beneficial.
