Asian cultures are unique. So it is understandable that many people seek a therapist or counselor who shares their cultural background. If you have Asian cultural heritage, you may want an Asian therapist as nobody can understand your cultural experience like another Asian person can.

Whether you are located in downtown Oakland, Adams Point, Bushrod, Eastmont, or even Fairview Park, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.

The Benefits of Talk Therapy with an Asian Counselor

If you are Asian or Asian-American, there are several reasons why you may benefit from working with Asian counselors:

  • You may connect more deeply with an Asian therapist or more easily feel that your therapist just "gets you."
  • You may feel more assured that you can share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement.
  • Asian counselors are better able to identify how your Asian cultural background affects your life and experiences.
  • Some mental health issues may stem from racial injustice, bias, or crimes, and an Asian therapist may feel safer to you.
  • You may feel more comfortable and be able to let your guard down more with an Asian therapist than if you feel like you must be aware of and fight stereotypes.
