Please join Dr. Scott Pytluk and Dr. Rahul Sharma for a webinar on
"Diversity and Clinical Psychology". This presentation is being
offered via video conferencing through Go
To Meeting. The event will start at 3:30 PM CST on Tuesday, February 14, 2017 and will be
approximately one hour long.
As a clinician, it is important to "walk the walk" in terms of
cultural competence in clinical practice and teaching. General themes of this
panel will include finding a balance of lighting a fire under ourselves (as
individual students/faculty/professionals), each other, our institution, and
our field and creating necessary spaces for difficult dialogues with supporting
ourselves and each other and affirming that our field holds essential keys to
addressing the complexity of cultural competence.
Scott Pytluk, Ph.D., ABPP is aprofessor at the Illinois School of Professional
Psychology at Argosy University | Chicago (ISPP). Dr. Pytluk coordinates the psychoanalytic concentration, teaches courses in psychoanalytic theory and
therapy, and in issues of diversity and difference. He also advises the
campus's "A2Z" group for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender,
questioning, and heterosexual allies.
Rahul Sharma, Psy.D., is an assistant professor and the coordinator of the diversity concentration at ISPP. Dr. Sharma's clinical interest is in the
development of cultural competence, and, in particular, how to make the study
and practice of psychology more relevant and accessible to diverse populations.
He is also interested in gender issues and violence against women prevention.
Dr. Sharma has worked extensively with the South Asian community, addressing such
issues as gender, violence, and dating expectations in relationships.
