Abstract
AbstractThis chapter highlights the importance of cultural clinical interviewing and case conceptualization via a cultural lens. The authors present a clinical case that illustrates the importance of integrating cultural values in the clinical interview. In addition, they explore the differences between psychopathology, culturally sanctioned experiences, and culture bound syndromes among Latinx persons, and they offer suggested guidelines to effectively conduct a cultural clinical interview and culturally informed assessment.
