Chapter 2 Integrating Theory Multiculturalism and Self Awareness Discussion

 

Question 1: In chapter 2 the author discusses the importance of being culturally sensitive; for example, understanding systemic barriers that hinder some from acquiring education or good employment. If you are a client but the therapist is a different gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status etc., and doesn’t possess the life experience you’ve had: what specifically do you need from the therapist to facilitate trust and build a strong therapeutic alliance despite the differences?

Question 2: One of the biggest points of contention has been the lack of acknowledgment of the huge toll discrimination and oppression take on the recipients of the discrimination (p. 22).

As future clinicians, how do you plan to handle correcting and/or dealing with this very important area in your practice?
