Using a Cultural Humility Workshop to Improve Trainee Confidence.

backgroundAvoidance of important cultural dialogues among behavioural health clinicians can lead to worse treatment outcomes. Additionally, the quality of training in cultural humility for doctoral psychology trainees is also inconsistent. This project examined the effectiveness of a cultural humility workshop for behavioural health consultant trainees in primary care on trainees' self-rated perceptions of cultural humility. APPROACH: In this project, we compared pre- and postscores on self-perceived cultural humility after participants (n = 12) attended an in-person cultural humility in primary care workshop. EVALUATION: We found no significant differences in perceived ability to seize cultural opportunities or perceived ability to address microaggressions after the training, but perceived cultural humility was approaching significance. Though nonsignificant, all differences were in the expected direction, providing conditional support for our hypotheses. IMPLICATIONS: These findings provide important implications for training current and future behavioral health consultant trainees on practical methods for engaging in antiracist clinical work in primary care settings.
