- Summary:
- Paul Pedersen works with a married Nigerian woman in her 40s who is having some difficulty adjusting to American cultural norms and expectations. The client is studying for a bachelor's degree and feels challenged by the competing responsibilities and demands of school and her family. She has a husband and five children. Pedersen empathically explores with the client competing cultural identities, helps her clarify her values, and discusses positive strategies for finding a balance between her Nigerian and her new American identity
