"One of the most impactful things that I came across during my studies to become a clinical counsellor is that there there seems to be an overrepresentation of a certain population of people in psychological research studies. One researcher put this number at about 95% of psychological research studies have been done in populations that belong to the United States of America, Europe, and other English-speaking countries. What this means is, we really have to put at the forefront your cultures, and my cultures, whenever we deal with our day-to-day situations and whenever we try to get some help."
