Multicultural Competence
Multicultural competence in counseling refers to a counselor’s ability to achieve positive clinical outcomes in cross-cultural interactions with clients. In this context, “cross-cultural” encompasses differences between the client and counselor in terms of ethnicity, religion, gender expression, income, disability, or other social factors. While this does not mean that counselors and clients must share a cultural identity to communicate effectively, it is important to recognize that building trust between individuals from different backgrounds can present challenges in the counseling process. It is the counselor's responsibility to undergo training and preparation to deliver the best possible outcomes, regardless of any differences between themselves and their clients.
Intersectionality
​
Culturally responsive and racially conscious psychotherapeutic work requires that therapists recognize the ways clients are impacted by their multiple marginalized identities and by systems of oppression (e.g., racism, ethnocentrism, sexism, heterosexism, and nativism).
