Culturally-Responsive Therapy
Culturally-responsive therapy is crucial for adapting our methods to fit each client's unique needs. Therapy occurs within the context of clients' lives, which are influenced by their individual backgrounds. Emphasizing cultural sensitivity is essential for establishing effective treatment relationships, allowing both client and therapist to achieve understanding and collaboration despite their differences.
Our therapists recognize that external factors can lead to increased marginalization and stress, particularly for clients from at-risk communities. Acknowledging these influences is key, as is fostering a mutual language of respect and understanding that aligns with cultural expectations.
At Chesapeake Counseling Associates, PC, we are committed to supporting the rights of all races, cultures, and identity groups. We respect and value the diverse characteristics that shape who you are, regardless of your cultural background or beliefs. Your individuality is important to us.
