Brief Bio:
Reinhild Boehme is a full-time lecturer at Cleveland State University's School of Social Work and  a clinical fellow at OhioGuidestone's Institute of Family and Community Impact. Regarded as an expert in Trauma-Informed Care and community-based mental health, Reinhild brings substantial experience in clinical practice with diverse populations and the supervision of multi-disciplinary staff.  Significant contributions include authoring the Institute of Family and Community Impact's clinical treatment and intervention manuals, adapting evidence-based practices to the community mental health setting, as well as the creation of the Institute's innovative CBT Plus model.

A skilled and experienced trainer and public speaker, Reinhild developed OhioGuidestone's Trauma Informed Care Training and Certification program and is frequently requested as a speaker on issues of mental health treatment. Further accomplishments include contributions to the literature on the use of imagery in mental health treatment. Both her work and her worldview are significantly informed by her experience as a mother and as a proud immigrant, negotiating and navigating two cultural identities. As such, she is passionate about amplifying the voices and experience of migrant and immigrant people in mental health treatment and evidence-based practices.

Reinhild received her Master's Degree in Social Work from Widener University and her Master's Degree in Religion from Temple University and is a Licensed Independent Social Worker with supervisory endorsement.
