The Importance of Culture in the Counselling Relationship

There are now many qualified counsellors and psychotherapists in private practice from African, Caribbean and Asian backgrounds especially in London and the South-East and our numbers continue to grow.

Clients from these backgrounds are now accessing counselling in their numbers compared to say 10 years ago. I would encourage people from ethnic minority backgrounds seeking a counsellor to do a bit of research online to find a counsellor with whom they would feel comfortable. An Asian client recently told me that she had especially searched for a counsellor who she wouldn't need to spend half her session educating about her culture. Another client had expressed her need to see a black middle-aged counsellor and was pleased when she saw my entry in Counselling Directory.

Working with a counsellor who understands your culture or background would enable the therapeutic relationship to be quickly established so the actual work can begin.
