Using the Interpersonal Circumplex in Therapeutic Planning and Intervention for Individuals Experiencing Acculturative Stress
Abstract
We integrate theories and models of acculturative stress and interpersonal behavior to help advance research and practice for clients experiencing acculturative stress. We briefly review Contemporary Integrative Interpersonal Theory (CIIT) and the interpersonal situation framework as an empirically validated heuristic model for case conceptualization and psychotherapy. We then apply CIIT to therapeutic planning and intervention for individuals experiencing acculturative stress, including a clinical example and clinical recommendations.
