Hi Colin,

Contributions to Multicultural Counselling
Its focus on social interest, collectivism, pursuing meaning in
life, importance of family, goal orientation, and belonging is
congruent with many cultures. Focus on person-in-environment allows
for cultural factors to be explored.

Limitations in Multicultural Counselling
This approach's detailed interview about one's family background can
conflict with cultures that have injunctions against disclosing
family matters. Some clients may view the counsellor as an
authority who will provide answers to problems, which conflicts with
the egalitarian, person-to person spirit as a way to reduce social
distance.
