August 2025 (Date TBD): Therapist Workshop with Dr. Brielle Stark-Adler
Hosted by the Gesher Campus Care (GCC) Mental Health Advisory Board
We are honored to welcome Dr. Brielle Stark-Adler, a valued member of the GCC Mental Health Advisory Board, who will lead an exclusive workshop for GCC-affiliated therapists in mid-August.
This interactive session will focus on strengthening culturally responsive care within Jewish communities, with a particular emphasis on the challenges therapists face when navigating grief, identity-based trauma, and the pressures of communal caregiving.
Participants will explore real-world case studies, engage in guided reflection, and leave with practical tools to enhance their clinical approach. Whether you are a seasoned clinician or newer to the field, this workshop offers a valuable opportunity to connect with colleagues and deepen your capacity for healing-centered work.
Who Should Attend:
