Descripción del curso

Con frecuencia encontramos casos de terapeutas y consejeros interesados en prestar sus servicios profesionales a personas de origen hispano, se enfrentan con la dificultad de realizar la entrevista psicologica en español, debido a que no tienen la certeza del uso correcto de la terminología y las expresiones cotidianas o de mayor uso en dicho idioma, o no sienten la confianza suficiente para llevar a cabo una entrevista clínica por temor a comunicarse inapropiadamente.

Este curso se enfoca primordialmente en hacer cordial el uso del Español en la entrevista clínica, facilitando la ayuda que necesita este grupo de profesionales, a fin de que se sientan más comodos en el uso de la terminología, expresiones y giros del idioma con los clientes que requieren la comunicación en español. En este curso se revisará la terminología apropiada para realizar una entrevista psicológica y, al mismo tiempo, entender los conceptos básicos del la cultura Latina e Hispana. Este curso es muy ameno porque su contenido es transmitido a través del juego de roles, conversaciones y un cafecito.

1,5 horas CE. Formato de video grabado (no interactivo)

Este curso se imparte íntegramente en español.
