Thesis (MSc)--University of Stellenbosch, 2004. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Differences between the therapist and the client such as differing genders, social classes, races,
cultures and languages, inevitably influence the therapeutic situation. This research assignment
reviews the literature available concerning multicultural counselling. the variables which therapists
contend with in a multicultural therapeutic situation and the state of multicultural therapy in South
Africa. The main body of this assignment focuses on the training experiences. as well as the
countertransfcrential experiences. of therapists from a minority group with specific attention given to
South African Chinese therapists. Also included are helpful ways of addressing the potential
difficulties that arise in a therapeutic relationship where the culture or race of the therapist and client
differ. In closing, this assignment asks what gaps exist in the literature with regard to South African
Chinese therapists and what further research would be required to fill these gaps. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Verskille tussen die terapeut en die kliënt. soos verskillende geslagte. sosiale klasse. rasse. kulture en
