This document provides an overview of competencies and strategies for multicultural supervision. It discusses the importance of integrating multicultural content and process in clinical supervision. Some key points include:
- Supervisor cultural competencies include awareness of diversity factors, self-identity competence, multicultural assessment skills, and modeling diversity in the supervision process.
- Trainee competence is related to supervisor competence, so supervisors must have awareness, knowledge, and skills around multicultural issues to effectively train supervisees.
- Cultural socialization, identity, belonging, and dynamics of difference all impact human experience and must be considered in psychotherapy and supervision.
Counseling@Northwestern University has created an interactive timeline showing the development of counseling as a profession. In recent years, counseling has become a popular mental health profession among those interested in preventing and treating different forms of mental, emotional, and behavioral issues. Timeline: The History of Counseling features information about industry pioneers like Sigmund Freud, details government involvement through legislation, particularly in dealing with the fallout from thousands of returning WWII soldiers, and illustrates how more modern laws like Title IX turned our attention to the needs of diverse populations. It describes the impact of categorizing counselors as primary mental health professionals, legitimizing the profession and differentiating those who are certified counselors. Also examined is how counseling techniques and the overall profession have changed throughout the last few centuries, leading us to the counseling practices and techniques we know and use today.

The function of defenses has been modified over the years, from a counter-force against instincts to the protection of self-esteem.
To understand the role of defenses in pathological and normal development, a coding method to use with Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) stories – the Defense Mechanism Manual (Cramer, 1991a) – has been developed
Three broad defenses – Denial, Projection, and Identification – may be coded with this method.
Research has shown that the two ego functions of defense and IQ are not correlated in childhood and adolescence, but are correlated in adulthood defenses and IQ.
Importantly, IQ serves as a moderator for the effect of defense use on variables such as
Psychiatric symptom change,
Level of Ego Development, and
Big Five personality traits

There are many approaches to help clients move towards growth and problem-resolution. often counselors will provide them with opportunities to learn new skills and coping mechanism while also increasing their self-understanding and insight. Counselors may also examine past patters to help them assess in a healthier way their current/past relationships, decision-making, and family dynamics. With the help of their counselors, clients will better understand their strengths and abilities to manage life challenges which can be very important in achieving their therapeutic goals.

Assumption 1: Counselors will not be able to sustain culturally responsive treatment without the organization's commitment to it.
Assumption 2: An understanding of race, ethnicity, and culture (including one's own) is necessary to appreciate the diversity of human dynamics and to treat all clients effectively
Assumption 3: Incorporating cultural competence into treatment improves therapeutic decision-making and offers alternate ways to define and plan a treatment program that is firmly directed toward progress and recovery
Assumption 4: Consideration of culture is important at all levels of operation—individual, programmatic, and organizational
Assumption 5: Culturally congruent interventions cannot be successfully applied when generated outside a community or without community participation.
Assumption 6: Public advocacy of culturally responsive practices can increase trust among the community, agency, and staff.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.

16. OUR BIASES
“An important component of working with any
culture is to understand your own biases,
expectations, and beliefs about members of a
cultural community.”
from: http://deploymentpsych.org/self-awareness-exercise
Why do health disparities persist despite
strong stated values of equity among health
care providers?
IMPORTANT: Conscious attitudes toward
diversity may not reflect subtle, hard-to
control bias.
17. IMPLICIT BIAS
Part of the evolving and accumulating body of research that is
informing our understanding of “unconscious” mental
processes.
Connected to research on implicit memory, implicit attitudes,
and implicit cognition
Underlying assumption is that “actors do not always have
conscious, intentional control over the processes of social
perception, impression formation, and judgment that motivate
their actions” (Greenwald and Krieger, 2006)
A process is implicit when a person cannot voluntarily retrieve or
identify a mental process and where there is simultaneously
evidence in behavior that process is present (memory, etc.)
18. IMPLICIT MENTAL PROCESSES
Implicit mental processes can be understood as “introspectively
unidentified (or inaccurately identified) traces of past
experience” that mediate
• favorable or unfavorable feeling, thought, or action toward social
objects. (implicit attitude)
• attributions of qualities to a member of a social category (implicit
stereotype)
-Greenwald and Banaji (1995)
Implicit biases are based on implicit attitudes or stereotypes and
produce behavior that diverges from a person’s avowed or
endorsed beliefs or principles
19. IMPLICIT BIAS AND THERAPISTS
The presence of implicit bias and a strong
belief in personal competency when
working with diverse clients can occur
together. (Boysen & Vogel, 2008)
Studies of implicit bias among mental
health providers have consistently
documented significant levels of bias
(Abreu, 1999; Boysen & Vogel, 2008; Castillo
et al., 2007)
20. INTENT AND IMPACT
Important to NOT equate intent with impact
Many microaggressions are not meant to be hurtful and may be
jokes or naïve curiosity
If we only focus on intention, we continue to center and prioritize
the perspective of the dominant group member who commits the
microaggression and invalidate the experience of the targeted
group members
“Get over it”; “Didn’t mean anything by it”; “You’re making a big deal
out of nothing”; “You’re oversensitive”
Dominant group members have broad societal support for
validation of their opinions and feelings with respect to gender,
race, sexual orientation
We are socialized to believe people with social power.
21. ASSUMPTIONS OF NORMALITY
Ideas of what is normal / good / “better”
Heteronormativity
White “Supremacy”
Male Dominance
We are socialized to give more credibility to those from
high social power groups (e.g., whites, men, higher SES)
How we deal with “exceptions”
How does this impact our evaluations of client behavior?
22. IMPLICIT BIAS AND DYNAMICS
OF DIFFERENCE
The existence of difference and all that it means in social context is at
the root of implicit bias
We are simultaneously
-LIKE ALL OTHERS (common humanity)
-LIKE NO OTHERS (unique story and journey)
-LIKE SOME OTHERS (minority/majority group;
culture/community
The 5 Ds of Difference provides a framework for checking in with
ourselves on implicit bias
Developed over 20 years ago to conceptualize common “difference
dynamics” (Harrell, 1995)
23. AT THE INTERSECTION OF CULTURAL
DIVERSITY AND PSYCHOTHERAPY:
THE DYNAMICS OF DIFFERENCE (HARRELL, 1990)
People develop ways of managing the threat, anxiety, or
discomfort that difference experiences can create
Those in power can establish the norm and define differences
from that norm as deviant or unacceptable
Difference dynamics are associated with minority-majority
group status and with in-group/out-group dynamics
There is a social press towards conformity and fitting in
Being different is sometimes only acceptable in competitive
situations (being the “best”); difference is typically assigned value
(e.g., better than or worse than)
23
24. THE 5 DS OF DIFFERENCE (HARRELL, 1995)
Ways we attempt to resolve the anxiety and dissonance that
difference creates
There are 5 basic strategies that people
use in difference encounters
Distancing
Denial
Defensiveness
Devaluing
Discovery
25. ABOUT THE 5 Ds
We all manifest each of these dynamics
in a variety of everyday situations
The function of these strategies is
protective as they seek to reduce anxiety
We can’t eliminate discomfort with
difference (either our own or others), it is
a normal reaction
Self-awareness is the key
26. Denial
• Minimize the existence or significance of the difference
• Colorblindness, universality, invisibility
• Selective attention to similarities; need for conformity and sameness; low
tolerance for disagreement and conflict
Defensiveness
• Stance that "I" have no problem with differences
• Defensive declaration of strong values of equality and “proof” through close
relationships with the “different” group
• Threatens sense of self as not having “isms”
Distancing
• Create separation from the difference
• Physical, emotional (e.g., pity), cognitive (e.g., intellectualization)
Devaluing
• Difference is experienced as deviance, pathology, or “wrong”
• Maintain sense of superiority or being “right”
• Inflexibility and anger
Discovery
• Curiosity and active engagement with the difference
• Positive feelings about the different group
• Can be objectifying and boundaries may not be respected
29. SO, WHAT SHOULD WE DO?
-DIGNITY (worth and value of all persons)
-DEEPENING (awareness)
-DIALECTIC (both/and – similarities and differences)
-DIALOGUE (meaningful relational connection)
-DYNAMIC (in process)
30. DIVERSITY PRINCIPLES TO FACILITATE CULTURALLY-SYNTONIC
PRACTICE (Harrell and Bond, 2006)
INFORMED COMPASSION
Balanced integration of head and heart
Seeking knowledge and awareness from a place of openness, respect, and
caring
Not distanced over-intellectualized position nor emotion-driven
overidentified position
CONTEXTUALIZED UNDERSTANDING
Multiple levels of analysis: Individual, Microsystem, Organizational, Locality,
Identity Group, Macrosystem
Temporal context
Person and interactions among persons are a function of variables at all levels
of analysis
Decontextualized analysis risks oversimplified and superficial understanding
EMPOWERED HUMILITY
Proactive engagement grounded in awareness of our vulnerabilities and
limitations
Acknowledgement of another’s right to self-determination
Understanding that stronger connection and greater empowerment emerges
from healthy humility that frees us to be open to see, hear, and learn in
unanticipated ways– gives us confidence to walk in unfamiliar terrain and
meet the “other” where s/he stands
30
33. FROM PRINCIPLE A: COMPETENCE
“Psychologists...provide only those services and
use only those techniques for which they are
qualified by education, training, or experience.”
“Psychologists are cognizant of the fact that the
competencies required in serving, teaching, and/or
studying groups of people vary with the distinctive
characteristics of those groups".

34. CULTURE AND CONTEXT
IN PSYCHOTHERAPY AND SUPERVISION
THERAPIST SUPERVISOR
CLIENT
CULTURAL VARIABLES TO UNDERSTAND AS RELEVANT TO THERAPIST,
CLIENT, AND SUPERVISOR INDIVIDUALLY AND IN THEIR INTERACTIONS
-Culture of psychotherapy
-Dominant Societal Culture
-Culture(s) of identity
-Dynamics of status, power and privilege
-Environmental & sociopolitical context
34
35. THE FOUR WAYS THAT CULTURE AND CONTEXT
IMPACT HUMAN EXPERIENCE
Cultural Socialization and Identity
• Dimensions of Exposure
• Patterns of Being, Believing, Bonding, Belonging, Behaving, Becoming
• Sociocultural and Intersectional Identities
Macrocultural and Microcultural Belonging
• Composition of settings (e.g., minority/majority status)
• Opportunities for affirmation and validation
Dynamics of Difference
• In the client’s life
• In the practitioner’s life
Sociopolitical/Sociohistorical Considerations
• “Isms” / Collective/Historical trauma and memory
• Social location, power, and privilege
• Immigration/Refugee experience; Acculturation processes

36. EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE
APA’s Definition of Evidence Based
Practice for Psychologists (EBPP)
An integration of…
The Best Available Research
Clinical Expertise
In the context of:
•Patient Characteristics
• Patient Culture
•Patient Preferences
36
37. WHEN A CLIENT DOESN’T
RESPOND TO TREATMENT…
Non-compliant
Resistance
Not psychologically-minded
Not “ready” for treatment
Not willing to do the work
WE NEED TO RE-THINK THESE CONCLUSIONS IN THE
CONTEXT OF CULTURE AND DIVERSITY

38. Three Cultural Infusion Strategies for
Psychological Practice
Culturally-Adapted - Start with presumably universal
constructs, strategies and methods and make cultural
adaptations to fit client values, preferences, and needs
Culturally-Centered - Start with theoretical frameworks
and empirical research from cultural psychology and
diversity science to inform conceptualization, treatment
planning, and service delivery; integrate culturally-
congruent contributions from multiple traditions as
appropriate
Culturally-Specific – Start with the specific culture and
design strategies that emerge from constructs relevant to
the target group

39. OPERATIONALIZING AND APPLYING
EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE
What evidence should be considered? What is meant by “best available”?
Frequent blurring of the distinction between evidence-based practice
and empirically-supported treatments such that acceptable practices are
are sometimes perceived as limited to the existence of ESTs for specific
disorders
The foundation of ESTs are the randomized clinical trials (RCTs)
conducted with largely homogeneous samples with respect to dimensions
of diversity (e.g., ethnicity, acculturation, socioeconomic status, religion,
sexual orientation, disability status, etc)
What “evidence” is there that these ESTs are efficacious and effective in
particular cultural populations outside of those who participated in the
RCTs?
These problems are particularly concerning in regards to the trend
towards the generation of lists of evidence-based treatments that are
inappropriately imposed upon diverse communities that bear no
resemblance to the samples in the RCT studies that established the
intervention as “efficacious”
What “evidence” is there for modifying ESTs in culturally diverse
settings?
There has been some progress examining the applicability of evidence-
based psychological practice with culturally diverse, underserved, and
marginalized populations. Need for effectiveness studies!
39
40. CHALLENGES TO EVIDENCE-BASED
PRACTICE
There are problems in the operationalization and
application of evidence-based practice
What evidence is considered acceptable?
RCTs only?
Lack of distinction between evidence-based practice and
empirically-supported treatments such that the evidence is
limited to the existence of ESTs for specific disorders
EBPP is broader than ESTs
Outcome variables; should disorder-specific symptom
reduction be the only outcome studied?
Efficacy studies establish ESTs but continuing need for
effectiveness studies
Internal and external validity issues
41. BENEFITS OF THE EST APPROACH
(a) evidence-based treatments give guidance to better serve
patients or clients seeking care;
(b) using the scientific approach to evaluate treatment is the
best way to advance knowledge in order to provide the best
mental health services in the future;
(c) it is necessary to use limited mental health resources wisely;
(d) there are treatments that work that most practitioners do
not use; and
(e) there may be no better alternative than to use science as the
standard for practice.
Whaley & Davis, 2007
42. ARE ESTS APPROPRIATE FOR DIVERSE
CULTURAL GROUPS?
Treatments were not originally developed and tested with various
cultural and SES groups in mind.
RCT samples are quite homogeneous, largely white and educated
Few ESTs have been systematically studied with culturally diverse
populations
WE DON’T ACTUALLY HAVE THE “EVIDENCE” to use them with
diverse populations
• One other consideration regarding intervention efficacy and
effectiveness involves the criterion of effectiveness, as defined in
reference to a specific population or group. This criterion is that “A
statement of efficacy should be of the form that, ‘Program or policy
X is efficacious for producing Y outcomes for Z population.’” (Flay
et al. 2005, Castro et al, 2010).
43. IN THE MEANTIME…
Until we have a sufficient body of empirical literature to inform
the use of ESTs with culturally-diverse populations:
• (a) allow basic research, especially studies on the target
population of color, to guide the development of an intervention;
• (b) apply a standard intervention to the specific ethnic/racial
group without any cultural modifications to learn which
components are useful; and
• (c) systematically examine a particular intervention from a
cultural competence perspective and assess the potential cultural
match of the intervention’s components to the group under study.

45. CULTURE & PSYCHOLOGICAL PRACTICE
The inclusion of culture in the
analysis of human experience,
behavior, and transformation
facilitates the identification of
constructs, methods, and
strategies that may enhance the
effectiveness of applied work in
diverse cultural contexts
Copyright 2016. Shelly P. Harrell, Ph.D. All Rights Reserved
46. PRE-ADAPTATION ISSUES
o Increasing the acceptability of interventions may help to
increase treatment engagement
o Before a treatment can work, there must be engagement
o Research is needed on drop outs from ESTs
o In addition, more research needs to be conducted on
dropout rates AFTER initial engagement and just before
treatment starts.
47. o Castro et al (2010) suggest that the impact
of culture may occur in the process of
therapy rather than the outcome.
o High rates of treatment dropout among
ethnic minority patients so the outcome of
the treatment actually remains unknown.
o Culture may be particularly important
during the process of therapeutic
engagement.
48. Culturally adapted therapy approaches may
be more compatible with ethnic/racial
minority patients’ cultural experiences
compared with standard therapeutic
approaches and, therefore, may be better at
treating their psychological problems (Kohn,
Oden, Munoz, Robinson, & Leavitt, 2002;
Whaley and Davis, 2007; Ghosh Ippen, 2012).
***Encouraging support from meta-analyses
-Griner and Smith (2006)
-Hall et al (2016)
49. CULTURAL ADAPTATION
It is also important to attend to intergroup
and bias issues; interpersonal issues are
impacted more on some dimensions of
diversity where fundamental cultural ways of
being are strongly held
50. A CULTURAL ADAPTATION CHECKLIST
Review for bias and then replace elements as necessary
• Review Materials for Cultural Congruence
• Review Examples and Metaphors
• Explore Meanings, Values, Religious Beliefs
• Attend to the Complexity of Language (bilingual and
choice)
Attend to two dimensions (Castro et al):
• surface structure adaptations –(micro)
• deep structure adaptations. – (macro)
52. CULTURE IS…
The multiple organizing systems of meaning and living in
the world that
• consist of patterns of being, believing, bonding,
belonging, behaving, and becoming which provide the
foundational frames for developing worldviews, interpreting
reality, and acting in the world
• for a group of people who share common ancestry,
social location, group identity, or defining experiential
contexts; but for whom, as individuals or intersectional
subgroups, elements of a particular cultural system may
be embraced, internalized, and expressed differentially.
• emerge and transform through cumulative and adaptation-
oriented person-environment transactions over time
• are maintained and transmitted through collective memory,
narrative, and socialization processes
Copyright 2016. Shelly P. Harrell, Ph.D. All Rights Reserved
53. CULTURE IS…
The patterns, rhythms, and ways of:
• Being (identity, self, and experiential processes)
• Believing (values, meanings, and worldview)
• Bonding (attachment and relational processes)
• Belonging (community and group processes)
• Behaving (actions, agency, daily living)
• Becoming (transformation and healing)
Copyright 2016. Shelly P. Harrell, Ph.D. All Rights Reserved
53
54. CULTURE IS…
• embedded in social and institutional contexts,
• internalized as patterns of meaning and
identity,
• expressed through actions and relationships in
the context of power dynamics, and
• interactive with co-existing and intersecting
cultural systems through multiple dimensions of
human diversity that reflect shared identity and
experience
Copyright 2016. Shelly P. Harrell, Ph.D. All Rights Reserved
54
55. CULTURE, POWER, & PRIVILEGE
Some ways of being, believing, bonding,
belonging, behaving, and becoming are more
valued than others
We need to be aware of the internalization of
dominant cultural narratives of what is
acceptable, desirable, healthy, “normal”
• Impact on members of non-dominant groups
• Impact on members of dominant group
Copyright 2016. Shelly P. Harrell, Ph.D. All Rights Reserved
55
56. IMPORTANCE OF ECOLOGICAL AND
CONTEXTUAL VARIABLES
Context affects conditions of living and access to societal
resources
Context determines exposure to particular societal, sociocultural,
and community narratives that define self, acceptable roles, as
well as appropriate thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
Context impacts options for support and coping
Context influences opportunities for affirmation and validation
of self and community
Unhealthy contexts can impede functioning and well-being,
compromise or confuse personal and collective identity, and
suppress or misdirect health-promoting behaviors.
57. CENTERING CULTURE
Consideration of culture as an “add-
on” inevitably privileges the dominant
status quo and existing structures of
power and inequality that maintain
asymmetries in health and wellness
Collusion with the dynamics of
oppression in contemporary
psychological theory and practice
occurs primarily through omission
Copyright 2016. Shelly P. Harrell, Ph.D. All Rights Reserved
61. Primary Macrocultural Collective Entities
Deeply embedded in the functioning of persons and contexts
Transmitted within family and community socialization processes
Cultural elements of privileged macrocultural entities are woven
into the dominant cultural narratives of society (e.g., generational
trends, heteronormativity, ideology of white supremacy)
EXAMPLES: Nationality, Ethnicity, Religion
Microcultural Collective Entities
Function within particular sociocultural communities
Exposure typically occurs after childhood and outside of the family
socialization context
Immersion in these entities may be voluntary
EXAMPLES: Military culture, Alcoholics Anonymous, Gay male
culture

66. CULTURAL COMPETENCE SKILLS
A set of problem-solving skills that includes
• (a) the ability to recognize and understand the dynamic
interplay between the heritage and adaptation
dimensions of culture in shaping human behavior;
• (b) the ability to use the knowledge acquired about an
individual’s heritage and adaptational challenges to
maximize the effectiveness of assessment, diagnosis, and
treatment;
• (c) internalization (i.e., incorporation into one’s clinical
problem-solving repertoire) of this process of
recognition, acquisition, and use of cultural dynamics so
that it can be routinely applied to diverse groups.
(Whaley and Davis, 2006)
67. BEYOND IDENTIFYING DESCRIPTIVE DIFFERENCES:
SPECIFIC COMPETENCY BEHAVIORS
1. Includes cultural diversity assessment at intake (utilizing
Cultural Formulation appendix in DSM)
2. Integrates multicultural factors in theoretically-grounded case
conceptualization demonstrating familiarity with the
multicultural psychology literature

dimensions of diversity
4. Incorporates multicultural considerations in treatment
planning and identifies cultural adaptation goals, culture-
centered goals, and/or culturally-specific goals as indicated
5. Implements treatment strategies in a culturally-syntonic
practice context
67
68. USING MULTICULTURAL NARRATIVES AS AN ORGANIZING
FRAMEWORK
Narrative theory suggests that our stories are not only created by
our lives, but simultaneously contribute to creating our lives
(McAdams, 2006). Narratives are related to creating memory,
identity, and relational behaviors.
A narrative approach facilitates the integration of the cognitive,
affective, and behavioral elements through the use of story.
A multicultural narrative is a story that we have involving one or
more dimensions of cultural diversity, attributes of cultural
groups, intercultural and intracultural interactions, and/or
“isms” connected to diversity dimensions.
The approach can be organized into four general phases: (1)
Laying the Groundwork; (2) Timing and Opportunity; (3)
Implementation of the Multicultural Narratives Supervision
Strategy; and (4) Evaluation
68
69. CORE GUIDELINES:
COMPASSIONATE CONFRONTATION AND EMPATHIC
EXPLORATION
Both supervisor and supervisee are tasked with confronting and
exploring emotionally-charged subject matter while
simultaneously maintaining an atmosphere of compassion and
empathy for the anxiety, pain, ambivalence, and anger that can
accompany the multicultural conversations. These discussions
can trigger strong affective and defensive reactions.
Successful multicultural dialogues require the ability to tolerate
(1) the processing of unacknowledged or undiscovered material
related to race-related feelings and experiences, and (2) feelings
of uncertainty and unfamiliarity related to “the other”
(Tummala-Narra, 2009).
The act of non-judgmentally giving supervisees space to share
their multicultural narratives provides an in-vivo opportunity to
strengthen the supervisory relationship.
69
70. IMPLEMENTATION PHASE I: LAYING THE GROUNDWORK
Conditions necessary for effective multicultural
narrative approach
Preparation and competence of the supervisor,
Establishment of multicultural competence as part of the
supervisory agreement
Creation of an open and emotionally safe supervision
atmosphere
Difference is the one of the fundamental dynamics
operating at the intersection of diversity and
psychotherapy
Processing and normalizing the “Five D’s of Difference”
70
71. What are your thoughts and ideas
about how you might more explicitly
lay the groundwork and set
expectations regarding multicultural
issues in clinical supervision?
71
72. IMPLEMENTATION PHASE II: TIMING AND OPPORTUNITY
When should a supervisor pay particular attention to multicultural
issues and dynamics?
Ten indicators of potential need to pay specific attention to racial
dynamics
• 1. Gaps in self-awareness
• 2. Reactivity
• 3. Minimization or devaluing the significance of culture
• 4. Interpersonal dynamics
• 5. Unfamiliarity, inexperience and lack of knowledge
• 6. Oversimplification or superficiality
• 7. Invisibility of culture and multicultural issues
• 8. Guilt, shame, or internalized “isms”
• 9. Context minimization error (“blaming the victim”)
• 10. Naïve, idealizing
72
73. Consider a supervision experience
where there was an opportunity to
process multicultural material. How
did or how might have you proceeded
with the trainee?
73
75. BASIC STEPS OF THE MULTICULTURAL NARRATIVES
APPROACH FOR WORKING WITH CLINICAL
MATERIAL
Step 1: Elicitation/Disclosure
• The first step in the process involves eliciting relevant narratives by inviting the
supervisee to process the stimulus issue more deeply
• Compassionate Confrontation operates strongly here
Step 2: Deconstruction/Analysis
• The second step involves a process of deconstructing the narrative by facilitating
connections to the supervisee’s internal experience and exploring multicultural issues
embedded in the narrative (e.g., identity, stigma, privilege, etc.)
• Empathic Exploration can provide grounding in the Deconstruction process
Step 3: Reconstruction /Integration
• Guided by the idea that intentional meaning-making of multicultural narratives can
reduce cultural anxiety and result in therapist behaviors that are productive in the
management and incorporation of multicultural content and dynamics
• (1) incorporates a reflective normalization of multicultural issues
• (2) integrates insights from the deconstruction process
• (3) is consistent with values and self-image and can contribute to both personal and
professional growth and development
• Integrates multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skill development
75
77. IMPLEMENTATION PHASE III: STEP ONE
Elicitation and
Disclosure
Invitation to share personal,
family, cultural, or dominant
social narratives related
to the relevant dimension of
diversity; supervisee (and
sometimes supervisor)
disclosure and description of
narratives associated with the
stimulus issue or event
“I’m thinking it would be
a good idea to pause for a
moment and focus in on
what happened in the
session when_______.”
“I’d like to invite you to
take a moment and try to
connect any personal
experiences involving race
that are associated with
_______.”
77
78. IMPLEMENTATION PHASE III: STEP TWO
Deconstruction
and Analysis
Exploration of the
narrative
with respect to the
supervisee’s internal
experience,
multicultural issues such as
power and privilege,
identity, bias, etc., and
impact of
these on the therapy and/or
supervisory process
“I’m wondering if you notice
any similarities between your
thoughts and feelings
associated with your
experience and what happened
in the session”.
“Let’s explore a bit more about
your experience with respect to
the role of race in your sense of
self and identity as it may have
been reflected in your work
with this client.”
78
79. IMPLEMENTATION PHASE III: STEP THREE
Reconstruction
and Integration
Facilitation of the
supervisee’s process of
integrating self, client,
and context to form a
coherent narrative of
the therapy or
supervisory event or
issue and the supervisee’s
developmental process;
Connection to relevant
Multicultural AVAs, KTRs;
and IPSs
“Let’s take a step back now and
look at what happened in session
in the context of some of what we
just processed”.
“How might you describe your
experience and understanding
from the session until now with
respect to the multicultural
issues we have identified”?
79
80. IMPLEMENTATION PHASE IV: EVALUATION
Evaluation should be guided by observation of
indicators of professional behaviors, expressed
attitudes, and demonstrated knowledge of the
supervisee relevant to multicultural competencies
A variety of multicultural dynamics may interfere
with the identification and remediation of
multicultural competencies that need further
development. Supervisors and trainees may
collude to avoid multiculturally-related meta-
competence conversations.

81. INTEGRATING MULTICULTURAL ISSUES IN CLINICAL
SUPERVISION - INTENTIONALITY
The importance of developing a clear and comprehensive
approach to multicultural issues in clinical supervision is
particularly critical given the almost inevitable experience of
anxiety when topics related to race, ethnicity, and culture are
raised in open discussion (Trawalter and Richeson, 2008).
The development of multicultural competence is facilitated by a
process that is able to incorporate attention to the emotional,
cognitive, and contextual issues related to managing the
dynamics and issues related to multiple dimensions of cultural
diversity
81
82. PARTING THOUGHTS
The central purpose of integrating multicultural narratives
into supervision is to facilitate the meaningful
consideration of multicultural material in the process of
therapy, supervision, and professional relationships more
generally
It is suggested that supervisors seek consultation from
colleagues who have expertise in multicultural issues in
order to process ways to deal with challenging
multicultural dynamics with trainees, as well as
appropriate supervisory strategies with respect to culture
in case conceptualization, treatment planning, and
treatment implementation.
82
83. PARTING THOUGHTS (CONTINUED)
One of the biggest barriers to facilitating supervisee
multicultural competence is the reluctance and/or inability of
supervisors to identify important material and bring the issues
to the supervisee’s attention
Processing multicultural narratives may trigger unanticipated
reactions and potentially expose the supervisor’s own vulnerability
The quantity and quality of the supervisor’s previous experience
discussing cultural and sociopolitical dynamics is also an important
factor influencing the implementation of the supervision approach
described
Effective supervision and evaluation of trainee multicultural
competence is not possible without the ongoing reflective
practice and self-assessment of the supervisor
83
84. MAIN TAKE-AWAYS
Cultural Competence is ultimately a way of THINKING about
culture and translating that into practice
Normalize consideration of culture and context; they must be
central in the clinical conversation
LEARN the theory and research of cultural and multicultural
psychology
Our work as psychologists should be informed not only by RCTs but
by basic science research
• Implicit bias and stereotype threat research are examples
Explore the role of implicit bias and non-conscious enactment of
privilege
