Abstract
Trust is a crucial element in the provider--patient relationship. However, trust is eroded when specific racial and ethnic groups systematically experience substandard levels of health care as a consequence of racism, leading to cultural mistrust. This chapter aims to outline potential cultural barriers to mental health utilization among racial and ethnic minorities as a result of cultural mistrust. Strategies are suggested for building a strong therapeutic alliance in spite of differences in provider--patient backgrounds.
