Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that ethnic matching of therapist and client does not have a significant impact on therapy outcomes. However, it may affect the client's preferences and attendance. Clients may feel more comfortable with a therapist who shares their cultural background and may be more likely to attend sessions if they have a good rapport with their therapist. Therefore, while it is not a predictor of therapy outcome, ethnic matching can have an impact on the client's experience in therapy.
