Providing mental health care in Kreyòl requires more than translating words. Clinicians must understand the terms, phrases, and culturally specific expressions Haitian clients may use to describe their emotions, symptoms, and experiences. This interactive training helps mental health professionals strengthen their ability to communicate in Kreyòl during clinical conversations and assessments. Participants will explore commonly used mental health terminology, clinical questions and phrases, and culturally meaningful expressions of distress.
The training will also examine how culture, spirituality, migration, and trauma can shape the way mental health concerns are expressed and understood. Participants will leave with greater confidence using Kreyòl in clinical settings and a stronger understanding of the cultural context behind the words.
