Counseling Latino Clients in Regards to Cultural Considerations
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 12 page paper discussing issues in regards to counseling Latino clients. Therapists who are counseling Latino men and women must take into account various cultural and ethnic values traditional in Latino families including adherence to machismo, marianismo, persondisimo, simpatia, respeto and familism; all of which define the gender, family and community relations and rely on protection, support, respect and honor. However, in regards to Latinos in the United States, differences between individuals also rely on acculturation levels. In the case of counseling Latina women who have been raped or sexually abused, therapists must take into account not only traditional values of Latinos, but also acculturation levels, concepts of identity, biculturalism, stages of identity development, attitudes on present day sexual influences, health care formality, the current state of family influences and the shifting gender roles among other issues.

Cuban Cuisine
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Cuban cuisine is world renown for its vibrant flavors and unique combination of ingredients to produce some of the most exquisite tastes known to man. Leading the culinary community with innovative and trendsetting cooking techniques, Cuba has long been revered for its delicious contributions. One must harken back, however, to the days before Castro's revolution to truly understand and appreciate the extent to which food reflected the very foundation of Cuban existence. Since the revolution, Cuban cuisine has changed to reflect a decidedly less creative approach, inasmuch as the government has effectively squelched any and all possible inventiveness by taking control of the restaurant market.
