Through a structured\, experiential approach\, participants learn to comm unicate ethically and effectively with Spanish-speaking clients across div erse helping contexts. The curriculum emphasizes communication for safety\ , alliance-building\, and meaning-making rather than grammatical perfectio n\, aligning language use with core therapeutic competencies (Egan\, 2018) . By integrating language learning with the three stages of Egan’s model —Exploration\, Understanding\, and Action—participants strengthen thei r ability to support client agency\, foster therapeutic alliance\, and tra nslate insight into concrete steps. \nThis session focuses on the therapeu tic alliance in Spanish\, including how to address misunderstandings\, rup tures\, and repair. Participants learn respectful language for naming tens ion\, validating impact\, and inviting feedback without defensiveness.  \nWe rehearse phrases for accountability\, cultural humility\, and collab oration when trust is strained. Participants also practice maintaining b oundaries while remaining warm and responsive.  \nZoom link will be ava ilable on course page in “My Courses” upon event registration.  \nThi s program\, when attended in its entirety\, offers 3.0 CEs for Psychologis ts\, 3.0 IL CEUs for Counselors and Social Workers\, 3.0 BBS California CE Us for LPCCs\, LPSWs\, and LMFTs\, or 3.0 NBCC Clock Hours.
