This paper examines how multicultural Guidance and Counseling can interpret and support this cultural practice using Pargament’s psychological framework. A literature review method was employed, analyzing nine relevant scholarly articles.

The study highlights the importance of culturally grounded counseling practices as a pathway to promoting holistic well-being.]]>
