dc.description.abstractThe South Asian diaspora makes up the largest visible minority group in Canada, but this ethnic identity as well as the intersections within are poorly understood in academic literature and research. There is particularly a dearth of research on the intersection of South Asian identity and gay male identity. What is known from current research is that both identities have poorer mental health outcomes than the dominant group. Although professional organizations, such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) and the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors (BCACC), call on counsellors to practice from a stance of cultural humility and social justice, to attend to the increasing diversity of the Canadian demographic, there is a notable lack of resources to support practitioners. This paper outlines recommendations for practice by outlining a framework that integrates cultural competence, cultural humility, intersectionality, and social justice practice and then applying that framework to the population of gay South Asian Canadian men.
