Importance of acknowledging racial and cultural differences
Please don't let me be misunderstood
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2018
Abstract
It is important to explore and interpret the dynamics of cultural differences and racism in clinical work. Race and culture often play a significant role in any psychotherapeutic relationship. Vignettes and clinical narratives are used to illustrate that they can be a useful vehicle for the expression of transferences, demonstrating how basic concepts of psychotherapy apply to cross-cultural interactions.
