What you do is never quite enough, is it? There’s no magical phrase that really transmits to others your full context and your deeper intentions. Maybe a good bit of anger, frustration and/or anxiety shows up because, well, how could it not…but of course this puts you at a disadvantage because you’re not clear headed anymore. If I asked, "What do you want?" Would you be able to tell me? Not what you want of others, but what you want of yourself. The hope is to regain and strengthen your sense of self with as little collateral damage as possible. What would that look like?

Perhaps you feel unsatisfied with your personal relationships or your professional life. Many factors can influence how we feel, like not having enough time for yourself, being the caretaker of others or having your own health issues, and job or relationship dissatisfaction, to name a few.

Change is the only constant part of life. We might as well embrace it and move forward. What if we made it a point everyday to own our choices beginning with how we treat ourselves and how we choose to treat others. And more importantly, what would happen if we choose to learn something new from our decisions. What if our failures were actually an awakening and an opportunity to redefine happiness. Let's find the right conversation to lead you in your quest to make the necessary changes you need to enjoy life and reconnect with those who mean the most.

If your life is fully functional, you don't have to struggle to understand why things are the way they are. It is when we hit a wall in our relationships, career or health that we get pushed out of our comfort zone and start looking for answers. People often think that they can deal with all these on their own. However, emotional wellbeing is essentially a two person process as we can only find ourselves in the eye of another. The therapist's questions might bring out the answers in you that will support you in developing a much needed fresh perspective in life.

Being human means experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, transitions in life, grief, pain, even fear, uncertainty, trauma, and doubt at some point. We can go from living our lives to being overwhelmed by our experiences, which can bring shame, anger, frustration, or self-loathing. When faced with these issues, the overwhelming need for a safe, encouraging, supportive space and acquiring access to tools that will help us navigate and better understand our mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical selves becomes essential for getting unstuck and moving forward.

Multicultural Therapists

What type of therapy is multicultural therapy?

Multicultural therapy is not tied to any specific therapy; rather, it is an overarching approach to therapy that aims to acknowledge and address the influence that factors like race, gender identity, and cultural background can have on someone’s life. Multicultural approaches can be applied to CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and others, and can be practiced with individuals, couples, families, or groups.

What can I expect from multicultural therapy?

Multicultural counseling should be tailored to the client’s unique identity and cultural needs. Such approaches often prioritize the building of trust so that the client feels comfortable exploring various aspects of their identity and any challenges caused by mismatches between their identity and the dominant culture. Beyond that, the format and timeline of therapy will be heavily influenced by the therapist’s preferred therapy approach and the specific problems for which the client sought therapy.

Can multicultural therapy help treat trauma?

Yes. Cultural factors such as racial background, gender identity and or sexuality, and immigration or refugee status can influence both whether someone experiences trauma and how they cope afterward. Multicultural approaches to trauma-informed care will be aware of these influences, helping the client recognize how their response to trauma may be shaped by their cultural background and identify coping mechanisms that take their identity into account.

What are the benefits of seeing a multicultural therapist?

Members of minority groups who seek therapy are sometimes frustrated by providers who don’t understand their cultural background or dismiss the ways in which race, gender, or other facets of their identity influence their lived experience. Seeing a multicultural therapist can help these clients feel seen, understood, and able to develop solutions to life challenges that take their upbringing, beliefs, and past experiences into account.
