EMDR Therapy, PTSD and Treating Black Men and Adolescents

Let's Talk EMDR

Anyone can experience intense trauma. Black, Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) experience racial trauma and microaggressions often. Black men and adolescents experience it much more often. How can clinicians effectively treat this population to help them manage their PTSD?
Join us to hear from Dr. Allen Lipscomb, LCSW, associate professor, director of online and offsite programs, director of Minority Male Mentoring (M3), and Student Success Allies to find out how EMDR therapy can help. June is PTSD Awareness Month and it's Men's Health Month. EMDR is widely considered one of the best treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Research has shown that EMDR therapy can be an efficient and rapid treatment for PTSD.
