Ans: D
Feedback:
Cultural congruence means that clients receive an overall message, conveyed both verbally and nonverbally, of personal and cultural validation. In culturally congruent mental healthcare, providers integrate the client's value system, life experiences, and expectations about treatment into the therapeutic process, even when the client is not fully aware that it is happening. As a result, the full weight of the client's cultural system can help support the healing process.
