Consulting
Anytime an educator teaches they are teaching across lines of difference. These differences can drive a wedge between students and educators as well as clients and clinicians. Learning tools to understand one’s own culture and address the impact of culture on education as well as clinical practice can improve outcomes for students and clients.
