Module 01 Discussion – Mental Disorders and Culture
Directions:
Over the last several decades, the United States has become a much more ethnically and culturally diverse country.
In your initial post, address the following:
- Do you feel that it’s important for mental health practitioners to become more culturally sensitive/aware, or do you think individuals living in the U.S. should be expected to conform to the societal norms in the country?
- Explain your reasoning, and outline the costs that will be associated with that choice.
