Are You Healing or Policing?: Disrupting Carceral Approaches to Suicide
November 22, 1:00-3:00pm EST, conducted online via Zoom
As therapists, we’re trained to respond to suicidality with carceral approaches that further harm marginalized clients and may inadvertently perpetuate state-based trauma and violence (Drustrup, Kivlighan, 2022). Recent shifts towards abolition seek to replace oppressive systems such as prisons and police with life-affirming institutions such as accessible housing and healthcare (Kaba, 2021). This training will support clinicians in developing an anti-carceral approach to supporting clients experiencing suicidality. Together we’lle explore case studies to enhance practical tools in supporting clients experiencing suicidal thoughts. Participants will gain proactive and active tools to further support the well-being and safety of their clients.
Learning Objectives:
Deepen the understanding of the negative impacts of carceral approaches to supporting clients navigating suicidality.
Develop additional anti-carceral tools to support clients experiencing suicidality.
Develop proactive tools to collaborate with clients in establishing a support team.
This training is eligible for 2 Continuing Education Credits for NBCC Counselors and New York LMHCs, LCSWs, and LMSWs
