“Our first session is to gain the basic amount of information to establish the working relationship. However, since establishing a therapeutic relationship is pivotal, and in the spirit of culturally responsive care, I take the time to give the client an opportunity to bond and connect with me by sharing their stories and letting me know who they are culturally. It is also a time for me to determine their strengths which will be critical in partnering with the client to improve their mental health.” - Gloria Morrow, Ph.D
