“…Although diversity can refer to factors such as age, gender, sexuality, and more, most of this literature has explored cultural diversity within therapy groups, and how this may affect therapeutic processes (e.g., Burnes & Ross, 2010; D’Andrea, 2014; Debiak, 2007; Macnair-Semands, 2007; Okech et al, 2015; D.
