Context in Culture and Community: Understanding the Concepts of Counseling

  • Summary

  • When it comes to ideas on counseling, it's important to understand and distinguish its meaning from different perspectives. Western or European ideas of counseling that connect to mental wellness, help and advice, insights and whole-self well-being, can be different from other cultures and communities that see emotional, social and mental development differently. In today's conversation, Executive Director Kevin Dahill-Fuchel helps explore this issue in-depth. Generational characteristics, cultural norms and community behaviors and expectations can shape how people perceive counseling and to what extent barriers exist in its application. As diverse as New York City school communities are, this is an important conversation to create stronger community connections.
