About This Webinar
In this workshop Meg Hamilton, LCMHC, ATR and Sarah Dunsmore, LCSW provide an overview of trauma-informed care and its importance in supporting the LGBTQ+ community in healthcare and wellness settings. Meg and Sarah share research on both the prevalence and impact of psychological trauma within the LGBTQ+ community as well as provide an understanding of the ways in which marginalization and oppression create psychological trauma through a phenomenon known as minority stress. While this is true for any marginalized community, Meg and Sarah provide information specific to the LGBTQ+ community. Finally, Meg and Sarah provide an introduction to core tenets of trauma informed care and examples of ways to implement these specific to the LGBTQ+ community.
Learning Objectives:
- Define minority stress and understand its role in psychological trauma within the LGBTQ+ community.
- Name 5 ways in which psychological trauma impacts health and healthcare outcomes for the LGBTQ+ community.
- Identify the 4 guiding principles of trauma informed care and understand the ways in which these lead to improved healthcare outcomes for the LGBTQ+ community.
