Abstract

An ecological perspective toward intervention recognizes the relevance of multiple influences and contexts on intervention with a given population. Ecological issues in psychotherapy with Arab American women would include both macro system issues such as historical events, internal and external culture, societal beliefs and stigmas and micro system issues such as family dynamics and community participation. The intersections of these systemic issues are also addressed in this article.
