Overcoming Challenges Between the Spiritual and Cultural Identities Discussion

In this final week of preparation for your week in-residence, consider how the various cultural factors you explored in previous weeks contribute to individuals’ dynamic multicultural identity. How does spirituality influence the other cultural identities that comprise individuals’ multicultural identity? As a contributor to individuals’ personal biases, worldviews, and experiences, understanding the multiple layers of multicultural identities prepares psychologists to provide more specialized care. How might psychologists honor the multiple multicultural identities of their clients? What aspects of these cultural factors do you look forward to exploring further in-residence?

For this Discussion, review this week’s Learning Resources. Then reflect on the challenges you identified in last week’s Discussion. Next, consider the strategies you might use to address these challenges. Finally, think about what topic or concept from the course readings you are most looking forward to reviewing in-residence, and why.

Post by Day 4 a description of the challenges you identified in last week’s Discussion. Then explain how you hope to address these challenges during the in-residence component of this course. Finally, explain what topic or concept from the readings this week you are most looking forward to reviewing in-residence, and explain why.
