Culture-conflict and psychotherapeutic approach.
The world-view of a therapist is essentially determined by his own cultural milieu. This hypothesis was tested by involving four therapists from disparate cultural settings in an exercise of planning psychotherapy on the basis of the presentation of a clinical case of a patient treated by the author with a 'culturally relevant' therapeutic technique. The responses of the participants were compared with the process and outcome of the therapy actually carried out.
