Training Description

The Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI), introduced in the DSM-5, provides a structured set of questions designed to help clinicians meaningfully integrate cultural factors into case conceptualization and intervention. The workshop intends to take the clinician beyond simply asking the questions and integrate the why. 

Participants will examine key concepts:

  • Understand the impact of power and privilege in clinical relationships
  • Practice cultural humility and appropriate self-disclosure
  • Apply practical strategies for working with interpreters and linguistic diversity 

This session is a starting point for ongoing reflection on integrating culture and diversity into clinical practice—a journey that is never truly complete.

Upon completing the live virtual training, you will receive a Certificate of Attendance for attending the training.
