Purpose
The purpose of this assignment is to report how to work with minority groups when considering empirically based treatments.
Parameters
This brochure will be designed as a two-page tri-fold brochure, referencing the Society of Clinical Psychology website: https://div12.org/psychological-treatments/. Think about the brochure as a double-sided brochure if you were to print it out, which means that each of the two pages of the brochure should be tri-fold. Please include a minimum of three references to this website and link the site to the appropriate location. You are expected to use the current APA formatting for citations.
Canva, Venngage, and Visme are just a few of the free online tools that provide brochure templates to help you get started!
Prompt
Navigate to the Division 12: Society of Clinical Psychology database of Psychological Treatments and related treatment-specific resources. Using the site’s “Treatments” tab, select and review one psychological treatment from the provided list. This treatment should be one that you want to get trained to provide to treat clients.
Your brochure will market your treatment so that clients know what you are providing in therapy and how this treatment is successful in minority groups. This brochure will include, but not be limited to:
- the name of your practice, location, and contact information (you can make this up) on the cover of the brochure, along with the name of the treatment you are going to describe in the tri-fold document;
- a summary of the selected psychological treatment and its target group in a section called “Treatment Summary;”
- the population used in the clinical trials (including cultural composition) in a section called “Research Population(s);”
- the treatment’s underlying assumptions, beliefs, and values in a section called “Values and Assumptions of Therapy;”
- potential benefits and limitations when used with culturally diverse populations in a section called “Benefits and Limitations for Diverse Populations;”
- recommended implementation of “adaptations” when used with marginalized groups in a section called “Potential Adaptations of Therapy,” and
- references from the website on the back cover in a section called “References.” This section should list your sources in the current APA style.
