Cultural Intersection of Asian Indian Ethnicity and Presenting Problem: Adapting Multicultural Competence for Clinical Accessibility
Bean, Roy A.; Titus, Gayatri
Journal of Multicultural Counseling and Development, v37 n1 p40 Jan 2009
A more accessible approach to using multicultural counseling competence is presented to bridge the researcher-practitioner gap and increase the likelihood of quality clinical services. The focus of the approach is on counselor awareness, knowledge, and skills as they relate to the most important contextualizing factors: ethnic culture and the culture of the presenting problem.
