A Psychiatrist's Humbling Encounters With Marginalized Populations: Case Scenarios
Marginalized populations including transgender, of color, and autistic groups frequently receive inferior medical and mental health care as few medical and mental health providers have received specific training in working successfully with these individuals. This presentation will focus on case scenarios involving my humbling encounters with these three groups of individuals both in an inner city school day treatment setting and in a more resourced multispeciality behavioral health practice, and the lessons they, and their parents, have shared with me.
Learning Objectives
By completing this program, participants will able to:
1. Describe the importance of the placebo response in working with marginalized populations.
2. List four determinants of mental health among marginalized groups.
3. Name three common psychiatric disorders seen, respectively, among individuals who are transgender, of color, and autistic.
