multi-cultural psychoanalysis

Multi-cultural psychoanalysis is an approach that recognizes how a person's cultural background influences their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It emphasizes understanding individuals within the context of their cultural identity, values, and experiences, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. This approach aims to provide more personalized and effective psychological treatment by respecting diverse cultural perspectives, beliefs, and norms, ensuring that therapy is relevant and sensitive to each person's unique cultural lens.
