What is multicultural counseling?

Multicultural counseling, or culturally sensitive counseling, is to approach counseling through the context of the client’s world.

Multicultural counselors understand that when people come to therapy, their problems often stem from overlapping circumstances, including their personal experiences and the state of society at large. For example, a person with a disability who is struggling with depression, may need to address multiple issues at once. Perhaps, in addition to depression, they may also be dealing with issues around hereditary traits, societal impacts on self-image, opportunities, and more.

Therefore, multicultural counseling is not limited to one type of therapy or counseling. Instead, it’s a mindset and style that therapists specialized in any area can employ. At Maria Droste Counseling Center, we have built a diverse team to offer culturally sensitive counseling services which:

  • Are non-judgmental
  • Understand your social and historical context
  • Understand that you’re experiencing the world on a number of cultural dimensions, that include not only race/ethnicity but gender, sexual orientation, religion/spirituality, socioeconomic status, and ability status
  • Help you combat the negative effects resulting from any “-isms” (racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Respect the psycho-spiritual realm of your personality
  • Keep improving the multicultural sensitivity competencies of our team
