Abstract: This paper offers a framework for considering cultural influences in couples therapy. Emphasis is placed on the therapist's responsibility to engage in an ongoing self-assessment of personal biases, areas of inexperience, and privilege. With a focus on couples of ethnic minority cultures, suggestions are offered for establishing rapport, understanding values, and appreciating strengths.
