It is important that clinicians take enough time to carry out the assessment, which may require several sessions. This is especially true for patients whose cultures may differ from those of the clinician. It is important that assessments are not rushed and that gradual therapeutic alliance is developed so that patients and their carers have confidence in the clinician. Clinicians should take time to understand the cultural context of the individual and the significance of culture in the genesis, perpetuation, and prognosis of illness symptoms. Health professionals need to be aware of cultural idioms of distress and emotional and clinical needs. Even when both the clinician and the patient come from the same culture, a thorough and proper assessment is necessary.","PeriodicalId":19711,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Medicine Online","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74190305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiences of migration and acculturation need to be assessed carefully. Furthermore, for the first time DSM-5 includes concepts of cultural formulation; the key features include cultural identity of individuals, cultural explanations of their illnesses, cultural factors related to their environment and levels of functioning, various cultural elements of relationship between the clinician and the individual, and overall cultural assessment.

A brief overview of the evolution of commissioning in both health and justice settings is given, as well as a description of ‘co-commissioning’ and the tensions and benefits evident in this unique approach.

Engagement with cognitive behaviour therapy and its success depends upon how the individual’s cognitions are affected by cultures and how amenable these are for therapy. Similarly, family therapy carries with it different roles of different members across cultures, and not everyone’s role will be the same. Minority therapists may face potential difficulties while looking after patients from majority cultures. General principles of psychotherapy across cultures will apply but they may carry different meanings for each individual. It is essential that therapists are flexible enough to ensure the best patient engagement, and additional modifications may be required. Each of these therapies can be reductive, reconstructive, or supportive, and a mixture of more than one approach can be utilized. Assessment must explore very carefully needs and indications for therapy.

In addition, the explanatory models they have will direct them into help-seeking accordingly. Once therapeutic interaction has started, the explanatory models of the individuals, their families, carers, and those of the clinician will affect therapeutic engagement. Race, gender, social status, education, and economic status will all affect explanatory models and where individuals seek help.

In addition, cultural factors like diet, smoking, and religious rituals also play a role in developing and maintaining therapeutic adherence. Individual pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetic factors are likely to be strongly influenced by ethnic and racial factors. Environmental and personality factors can play an important role in efficacy of medication. There is no doubt that medication is an important part of the therapeutic interaction.
