Beginning therapy can mean different things to different people, but it is an action of courage, hope, self- care, and self-determination. You might or might not have been to a therapist before. If this is your first experience with therapy, you might even feel a bit nervous or apprehensive and I am here to say that’s normal. Therapy is a process that allows you the freedom and privacy to discuss issues that may be sensitive or painful. They may even be difficult to discuss with your family or friends. Through our work together, you will be validated and can begin to feel more at home within yourself.

It can be difficult to open up about your personal struggles to a stranger. Many racial/ethnically diverse clients find it to be a distinct challenge: “we can’t find a therapist who understands our cultural/religious beliefs & it is too emotionally exhausting to explain it.” In this journey of self-exploration and coping with life’s struggles, the last thing you need is a counselor that you need to educate, feel fearful to talk to about culturally sensitive issues due to judgment or stereotypes, or to feel retaliation from someone who is supposed to provide you a safe space. Natasha aims to create this space for everyone she sees.

I take a culturally sensitive approach and draw from a number of different perspectives including cognitive-behavioral therapy (challenging unhelpful thoughts and beliefs), narrative therapy (looking at the stories we tell ourselves), mindfulness (noticing what we are experiencing in the present moment), and existential therapy (finding meaning in life).
It takes strength to get on here and look for a therapist. Regardless of whether you’re trying to work through a problem, grow as a person or couple, or just need someone to listen, seeking therapy means seeking change – and I think that takes guts! No matter what we’re discussing, my focus is always on seeing your world as you see it – because I believe that real healing begins when we have a compassionate and non-judgmental space in which we can freely express ourselves and feel understood.

Tara Brach speaks of being a bird with two wings. Often my thoughts turn to this when describing how I work. As a mindfulness-based and contemplative psychodynamic psychologist, I seek to help others find ways to gently turn toward their suffering, cultivating the capacity to hold that which is unpleasant in one hand, and that which is pleasant in the other. As the saying goes, "Suffering is optional."

Culturally Sensitive Therapists

How does culturally sensitive therapy work?

A culturally sensitive therapist will tailor their approach to therapy based on the individual client’s background. This may include changing their style of interaction (asking open-ended questions vs. being the “expert” voice), their affect (seeming warm or “neutral”), how much personal information they disclose about themselves, and more. It’s also important for a culturally sensitive therapist to acknowledge larger societal forces that may impact their client due to the client’s background.

How effective is culturally sensitive therapy?

Some professionals have expressed concern about highlighting cultural differences in therapy, suggesting that it might promote stereotypes and harm the therapeutic bond; however, many experts agree that cultural sensitivity tends to strengthen the connection between therapist and client and help clients feel heard and understood. A culturally sensitive approach to therapy can be especially helpful for those not in the cultural majority, especially when combined with proven therapies like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

What are the limitations of a culturally sensitive approach to therapy?

While being culturally sensitive is generally a valuable skill to have, a therapist cannot treat every client from a similar background the same way. Each client is an individual with their own values, personal preferences, and life experiences that will need to be explored during therapy. In addition, it’s rare for a therapist and client to have identical backgrounds, so there may be some cross-cultural differences to navigate during therapy, but a culturally sensitive therapist can do so with empathy and respect.

Can culturally sensitive therapy be done online?

Yes, online therapy using a culturally sensitive approach can be beneficial. Therapy can sometimes be difficult to access for clients from diverse backgrounds and socioeconomic standing. The array of mental health support available through the internet makes it possible for clients to find a good therapist match regardless of where they live.
