Counselling Techniques: Exploring Cultural Meanings II
Channel: Sandra Collins
Date: 2023-05-25

Counsellors use the technique of exploring cultural meanings to inquire about client culture so that you can co-construct a shared understanding of their cultural identities, values, worldview, norms, and practices. The purpose of this technique is to demonstrate cultural humility on the part of the counsellor, to assess the client's cultural identities and social location, and to actively explore client values, beliefs, and worldview.

You can view descriptions and video demonstrations for the microskills used in this video and other techniques through my Counselling Microskills and Techniques playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZkRzHU4Rjb00X5yz475ITmTzPepFhXEm.
