Counseling can be helpful and necessary if you find yourself in a challenging life situation and are looking for ways to cope. Counseling has its scope outside of manifesting psychological symptoms so that a few sessions can lead to relief. Counseling can give you new impulses and offer alternative perspectives that lead to a better understanding and discovery of new solutions. Counseling can, therefore, be used for further development and personal growth. Your resources and autonomy are at the heart of the counseling process. You can determine the focus of the counseling and the scope of the sessions.
There are many possible topics for counseling:
Finding a new identity after challenging life events such as separation, loss, and illness
Complex decision-making processes
Migration-related stress (e.g., dealing with cultural differences, experiences of racism)
Challenges in a multiracial and multicultural family, such as racism within the family
Dealing with different cultural identities (e.g., biculturalism, cultural hybridity)
Parental support for multiracial children
Identity work of adolescent children and young people
Bicultural couples
