Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nature of the client's presenting problems is determined by the client's own experiences, circumstances, and perceptions, not by the practitioner's level of cultural awareness. The practitioner's cultural awareness can influence how they behave, their expectations of the client, and how empathetic they appear to the client, but it does not change the nature of the problems the client brings to the session.
