Presented by Dr. Angela Neal-Barnett, Ph.D.
The past 15 months have been traumatic for all Americans. No group has been more impacted than Black women. The dual pandemics of COVID and racism have significantly increased the incidence of trauma for Black females. Multiple traumas have been experienced and the strong Black women motif that at times has served as a protective factor now heightens the risk for trauma. In this workshop, pioneering anxiety expert and clinical psychologist Dr. Angela Neal-Barnett shares about Black women and trauma. She demonstrates the impact of trauma on Black women physically and psychologically. She shares why a culturally competent approach to understanding and treating trauma is important for Black women. Special attention is given to racial trauma
