Multicultural Counseling and Therapy
Multicultural counseling and therapy is a therapeutic approach that provides a helping role and process using methods and goals aligned with a client's unique life experiences and cultural values. This approach aims to recognize the client's identity across individual, group, and universal dimensions. It advocates for employing both universal and culture-specific strategies in treatment and seeks to balance the principles of individualism and collectivism during assessment, diagnosis, and therapy.
