Welcome

Treatment must address the whole person. (holistic)
Treatment must address each individual from a holistic perspective.
Treatment must be culturally specific and begin from the client's frame of reference. Treatment of African-American clients must be based on an Afro-centric world view and other culture require thier perspective as well.

Clients must be empowered to define, interpret and re-negotiate in an appropriate behavior.

Treatment of individual clients must operate from an ideology that places their culture at its intellectual center with a focus on their culture as the norm.

Individual, group, and family counseling interventions are effective treatment methods, when they include the economic and psycho-social development of African-Americans from slavery to present day and for Latino and other cultures their past and present are to be at the forefront of their treatment.
