Culture and Psychotherapy A Guide to Clinical Practice

This remarkable work presents the nuts and bolts of incorporating culture into therapy in a way that is immediately useful and practical. Illustrated by numerous case studies that demonstrate issues, techniques, and recommendations, this volume focuses not on specific race or ethnicity but instead on culture. Topics include Native American spiritual beliefs, folk healing, ethnic transference during therapy, the psychological aspects of giving and receiving medication, the severe trauma of Southeast Asian refugees, the ongoing cultural issues in psychotherapy with African, Asian, and Hispanic Americans, marital counseling for intercultural couples, and group therapy with multiethnic members.Tseng, Wen-Shing is the author of 'Culture and Psychotherapy A Guide to Clinical Practice' with ISBN 9780880489553 and ISBN 0880489553.
