Recognizing, naming, and acknowledging racial and cultural differences in a therapeutic environment promotes differences to be openly discussed and, therefore, understood. When the therapist is aware of her own stereotypes, values, and biases, a safe, respectful therapeutic environment can be established that permits a positive therapeutic alliance to develop between a white female therapist and her African American female clients. A case study, this thesis explores and examines a means of developing and maintaining a therapeutic alliance using womanist theology and relational cultural therapy. This examination indicates that a powerful and helpful alliance encourages and fosters the elements that are necessary for positive change and transformation to occur.
