Nikita's presentation, "Culturally Attuned Care for South Asian and Bicultural Adolescents", is grounded in both her lived experience, as well as her clinical insight.

Zoë's presentation, "Walking the Middle Path: Building Understanding Between Parents and Teens", will cover how Dialectical Behavior Therapy and the 'Walking the Middle Path' techniques help parents and teens navigate conflict, balance independence and safety, and strengthen collaboration, emotional regulation, and family connection.
