Abstract

A more accessible approach to using multicultural counseling competence is presented to bridge the researcher‐practitioner gap and increase the likelihood of quality clinical services. The focus of the approach is on counselor awareness, knowledge, and skills as they relate to the most important contextualing factors: ethnic culture and the culture of the presenting problem.
