Racial Differences: Impediments to Rapport

Vontress, Clemmont E.

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 18, 1, 7-13, Jan 71

Rapport is difficult to achieve, especially for white counselors relating to black clients. It is generally easier to establish a working relationship with a colored, Southern female than it is with a Negro or black urban male. The curriculum must be reworked to help counselors learn to relate more adequately to racial minorities. Originally presented at APGA, New Orleans, 1970. (Author/CJ)
