Accepting Our Roots-Breaking the Cycle of Generational Transmission of Dysfunction

Journey into the depths of family dynamics! Uncover the complexities of family dysfunction and the resilience and strengths of individuals who break free from these cycles. With Resilience Portfolios and Family Systems frameworks, dive into generational dysfunction and evidence-based strategies to enhance the identification, evaluation, and treatment of struggling clients. 

Learning Objectives: 

1. Develop the ability to recognize common patterns of dysfunction within families across generations, explore their root causes, and assess the impact of intergenerational trauma, family dynamics, societal influences, and cultural norms with clients. 

2. Gain insight into the concept of cycle breakers, individuals who disrupt the cycle of dysfunction within their families, identify the factors that contribute to resilience and empowerment, and acquire evidence-based skills and techniques to facilitate healing and growth in clients who are working to overcome the effects of generational dysfunction. 

3. Recognize the intersection of various cultural identities (e.g., race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status) and their impact on clients who have identifiable ACEs from dysfunctional family environments and their needs.
