COMMENTS:
You did a good job explaining your biases. Unfortunately, you didn’t comprehensively discuss strategies to address all of the biases.
What cultural competence strategies will you employ that are behavioral, measurable, and professional to increase your cultural competence? For example, let’s say that you wanted to get competent in hypnosis.
What would you do in order to learn how to use it with patients? Would you simply remain open to learning about hypnosis or “educate” yourself?
How would you actually take action to gain competence? Now, apply that same logic to getting culturally competent
