The therapeutic approach that takes into account the client's relationships, roles, and cultural context is referred to as relational therapy or relational-cultural therapy. This approach emphasizes the importance of mutually satisfying relationships and views the client's cultural identity, social roles, and relational context as central to the therapeutic process. It recognizes that cultural factors such as ethnicity, religion, socioeconomic status, and historical experiences deeply influence clients' mental health and healing process. Therapists practicing this approach engage in ongoing dialogues about cultural identities and tailor interventions to fit the client's unique cultural and relational context, facilitating a strong therapeutic alliance and culturally responsive care. This approach contrasts with traditional therapy models by focusing on the client's interpersonal connections and cultural background as essential elements of treatment.
