Abstract | As British society becomes increasingly multicultural, coupled with the majority of therapists identifying as Caucasian; South-Asian clients are increasingly receiving therapy from an ethnically dissimilar therapist. Within the literature on cross-cultural therapy, often individuals identified as Black and Minority Ethnic (BAME) are treated as one homogenous group. Consequently, there is a paucity of literature focusing specifically on people of South-Asian heritage and their experience of ethnicity in cross-cultural therapy. The current study aims to address that gap in the literature by exploring the experience of clients self-identifying as South-Asian who are in therapy with a therapist of a different ethnicity. |
