With Kevin Nadal
This two part series presents a real-life example of how a counselor can utilize multiculturally competent techniques in working with clients with specific disorders. The client is a Latina woman who has a history of mood disorders and substance abuse problems. Dr. Nadal is able to explore the cultural elements that impact the clients' problems, while utilizing traditional methods like strength-based counseling, cognitive reframing, and here-and-now processing. The first session is an in-take and assessment. The client leaves the session with an action plan. The second session explores the clients action plan, what has worked and what needs to be improved.
