Abstract:
Diversity responsiveness and competence is an imperative in current graduate psychology training and few, if any, will debate this. However, what has been and still remains frustrating to most practicum and internship clinical supervisors and graduate school instructors is a dearth of safe and practical tools to enhance this process, particularly in terms of the awareness domain. The authors of this article present a process model, the Worldview Genogram (WVG), that has been developed and implemented in clinical field placements and classroom settings over the last 22 years with significant success. The WVG, anchored by a three-generational family-of-origin genogram, is a depiction of individual and cultural diversity constructs that impact a person's identity formation. A rationale for the model and specific, practical steps in implementing it in academic and clinical settings are described. The model's uniqueness lies in the fact that it is nonpathologizing, strengths-based, trainee driven, and predicated on instructor or supervisor modeling.
