This book studies the importance and impact of ethnicity and culture in family therapy practice. Each individual’s cultural background determines the way in which he or she deals with crisis and reacts to psychological problems. This background also affects the individual’s family dynamics, and therapists who include the family in the treatment program must understand the ways in which ethnicity and culture can have an impact on the intervention process. This book includes a broad range of studies, profiling the ways in which different cultures view the family, consider time, and think about outside intervention.
