Description
In order to provide inclusive and effective clinical care, you must understand how gender, sexuality, and other identities play a part in how we think about suicide, grief, and mourning. This session with Dr. Shanéa Thomas will show you how experiences and decisions of suicide for marginalized communities are different from what you may assume, and she'll give you an intrapersonal clinical framework for working with suicidal individuals facing discrimination.
