What is Multicultural Therapy?

 
 

Multicultural therapy is predominantly defined as a type of therapy where the culture of the individual belonging to a minority group is taken into consideration.

It’s imperative to remember what’s been defined as the dominant culture is from a particular lens. Most persons belonging to a minority are actually members of the global majority.

Therapy ought to respect your individual and communal values. If it feels you are being asked to follow stringent values that don’t align with you, it’s likely you require a multicultural approach.

Your culture is a central component of who you are. Engage in a therapeutic process that honors that as opposed to considering culture to be peripheral.
