Treating the Whole Person - SWG 656

This course brings together key elements that integrate the medical model framework into the behavioral health arena to address the full spectrum of problems that patients bring to a primary medical setting. The course introduces a new paradigm of treating the “whole” person’s mental and behavioral health by integrating the client’s physical well being within the context of a collaborative interdisciplinary model. The focus will be on individuals and families with particular attention to culturally sensitive interventions.
